I guess I should hope it's a boy; at least a boy will be allowed to be more than a baby-making machine.

Originally Posted By DyGDisney ^^That's the truth. Have 20 kids if you like, but making money off of it the way they do is disgusting. And that goes for Kate and her 8 as well!

Originally Posted By SingleParkPassholder If and when Mrs. Duggar eventually dies during childbirth, would that be God's will or His way of putting a stop to all of this?
Originally Posted By mele I was reading comments about this family on another site and someone mentioned that they *are* concerned about over-population.

I cannot even begin to express how much I hope this not what they believe. Someone else noted that the odds are good that they must have created at least one or two gay children, too. I'm not sure what the point of saying it was...it's not like these kids get any choice in how they live their lives anyway. I find it extremely evil to have children and not allow them to live their lives the way they see fit. It's all ego and control; complete and utter disrespect for the individual gifts each person is given (by God, if you believe in such things). They make me sick.

I'd especially like to see the girls get the education their parents want to deny them. Please note I think if they want they can still be Christians and not take on Mom and Dad's way of thinking and looking at the world. Even your average evangelical isn't that nutty and backwards, not by a long shot.
