if you watch the show, and have followed the family, even slightly (my wife makes me watch lifetime) then you know that they DO parent their kids, all of them, exceptionally well, and probably do more with their kids then most parents of 1 or 2 kids do.
exceptional people, all of them, i challenge anyone to have 18 kids as well behaved and adjusted as these are.

Hummm.. doesn't even leave one hour of parent time for each child.
Sooooo...they take them ALL to say the zoo, or museum, which they often do, how is that time counted?

Now lets add in the environmental cost of all those diapers, laudrey, heating, cooling, gas and everything else.
as opposed to 9 families with 2 kids each or?

I'm all for a big family within reason but this is just gross, especially when the parents keep having sex and sending the responsibility off to the children.
just untrue, as Nex explained, the big kids help, like my 5 y.o. helps us with her baby sister...same deal only on a larger scale

Additionationlly, the mother was told that having more children could kill her due to uterine rupture problems. That kills, and kills quite rapidly. So what is that telling her daughters? Lie down with your husband whenever he's horny-no matter what- no matter what the consequences might be? Lovely. But then again, maybe she's the horney stupid one? Who knows.
we JUSt watched the show where they had the 18th like 2 days ago, their doctor who delivered the last 3 (i think) was very confident that Mrs. Duggar was perfectly healthy to deliver VIA vbac and again is she so chooses.

I think they are addicted to media attention and the drama that comes with in.
Just gross all the way around...
