I try not to get too caught up in other people’s business, but when I think purely of the environmental impact this family has, I feel angry. This may sound a bit radical, but when you look at the world (over-) population, and the problems we have with storing and destroying trash, supplying clean water, growing healthy foods, etc., I think it’s irresponsible to have an enormous family. What’s the cut-off? I have no idea. I’m not saying that’s for anyone else to decide but the family. But imagine if every family grew to this size—you can see how ridiculously out of control it can get. The mom is only 42, so can we expect another 10 or so kids from that family before nature steps in?

I just feel sorry for her son and daughter in law. It seems that they won’t be able to enjoy the “spot light” of having the newest baby in the family for long. I personally wouldn’t want to share it with someone having thier 19th baby!!! I think that now that Michelle and Jim Bob are going to be grandparents they should stop having kids and let thier children start the next generation.

Wow, another child to exploit….these people are sick. She must like being a brood mare though or she wouldn’t do it.

I think the size of the family is up to the family. I do think it is wrong that it is so publicised.

I think it’s wonderful! They’re such an amazing family, and they are self-sufficient. They don’t expect the govt. to take care of them, they do it on their own. They have so much love, and seem so very happy!!!

If your body, pocketbook and mental fitness allow for it, then I should have no opinion about this. I suppose in the end, it’s just the fact that I could never do this that makes me go, “Woah.” But everyone has a purpose and Michelle’s purpose is probably being a mother to the utmost. Once upon a time, this might not have been quite so unique as it is now but of course the reasoning behind it was most likely very different too. Ugh. I”m honestly trying my best not to be judgmental about a situation that looks to be very much under control - so to speak. More power to them.

Its strange when she talks about not knowing what tomoorw holds, it like shes talking as if she knows she wont make it through the 19th child. It worries me.

Her hair has really gotten much better since they started the show.

Just another fish for their show’s fish bowl.

If by “it” you mean showing that they love each other & their family, then good for them.

She is only 42, she will probably have at least a couple more. Honestly, as long as they can feed them and take care of them, I don’t care how many kids they have! I would hate to see people judge me for having 2 kids!!

I remember watching thier show way back when I think there were only 15 or 16 kids…. I forget what year, the one when they were building the house (with their own hands I might add) People always complain that they are publicizing their family …. I hate to tell you guys this but they didn’t go out and say “I’m going to find a journalist to write about me.” or “I”m going to go find a TV show to talk about me.” It was happening anyway because unfortunately the world is nosy as hell and people were talking about them because of their family size and speculating information. If the media is going to talk about you anyway, wouldn’t you rather be involved and provide them with proper information instead of allowing them to speculate all of the place? Of course you’d want to do that!

I see nothing wrong with the Duggars having more children they’re not asking for assistance plus the bible says to be fruitful and mulitply.

I think it’s wonderful! They are such an inspiration and their kids behave very well. I’m just glad their bringing more white people into the world. All these black people just have their babies to get more welfare and all their ghetto children are taking over.

I don’t read the bible—does it talk about overtaxing our resources? How about a plan to supply clean water for all (the forecasted) 9 BILLION people by the year 2040, by which time the oldest Dugger will be a grandfather how many times over? We’ll probably still be OK in 2040, but how about in 2140, when the world population is more than 15 billion? I hear what you’re all saying by, “they take care of their own” (because they’re not on government assistance), but my point is that the Earth won’t be able to support ANY of us if we keep up in this way.

Sarah - I didn’t use to think like that until I moved around and saw “reality.” It is SAD - that they gave their own self’s that “reputation, they ARE the MAIN ones that kill people without conscience, burglarize, and rob people at gunpoint…their disgusting…move to a state where you’re surrounded by them and I promise you…you’ll feel different.

I have a hard time believing that she didn’t know she was pregnant. She makes it sound like such a surprise - couldn’t lose weight, blah blah blah. Seriously? I would think that on the 19th go-round she’d have a good idea of what the early stages of pregnancy feel like.

Kelly that is an inappropriate remark and just shows unfortunately how sad our world is that people like you think like that.
