Die Duggars - 19facher Kindersegen

17 Kids and Counting is a horrifying show about a family with over 17 kids. The parents need that many kids why? Religious reasons? Its a really sick and sad program that shows a family cult with awful views. More recently Josh Duggar has come out as a total pervert who molested his sisters and downloaded illegal porn. He was protected by his twisted parents and evil friend Ray Comfort. This show is shockingly awful.

When I first started watching this show, I was interested to see how the lives of such a large and Christian family would play out. Being Christian myself, I thought I was going to see some good TV and important messages about what it means to be a happy family.

Boy was I in for a downer...

Instead, the show describes the overly-protective lives of the children of the Duggar family and just how boring their lives really are. To this day, I have NEVER seen a date in public where the people dating were literally being followed around by their own family.

This show is literally what life would be like if "Big Brother" was actually a thing. These kids lives are being constantly monitored; every single move they make is being made known to everyone else. They're also home-schooled and live in a pretty shut-in community. What these parents are doing is not preparing them for the real world. First of all, these kids need A LOT more independence.

They need to be able to determine for themselves what's right and what's wrong, and not have their parents watch their every move.

Yes your kids can and will be tempted to do what's wrong, but they need to be able to flee temptation on their own. If you don't think your kids are going to do the right thing when no one is looking, then you have a problem...

In conclusion, this show is more disturbing than entertaining. With all the overbearing rules and overly protective parenting this family has, it's no surprise that the kids that have already moved out turned a little wacko...

I wish the positive reviewers who brag about the Duggars like poster AA not being on welfare would take another look. I doubt if any of them could live their life. Sure you want to protect kids, bit shouldn't they have more free reign as they get older. Shouldn't you have more faith in them to do right? raising umpteen siblings only causes resentment Take it for those who have lived this life. Note it is only the females who are looking after the smaller kids when the parents go on dates. Here lately four of the married couples went on a date. What about letting the rest have some time like that? It seems the daughters are worth nil until they marry. If you are not Christian you should be concerned what this family teaches. Money or not,welfare or not this family wants everyone to live their life and tries to back candidates who come close to it. Some powerful mean dictators never had welfare but used their wealth for control.And if I only had a choice between Teen Mom and the Duggars I would rather not choose. There are gray areas.

It way beyond me why she still with Josh Duggar. I don't know why she would even stick by him after he cheated on her to begin with. Everyone kept talking about how we should forgive and shouldn't judge. No, someone that cheats on their wives shouldn't be forgiving. And who stays with their husbands after they are accused of child porn???!! I don't understand her at all.

There's not the slightest bit of entertainment. Watched it all the way through expecting that at some point I might be able to justify a show like this one taking up space as entertaining 'programming'. Worse, it's on some days back to back in place of programming with some human interest or some interesting dialogue and characters. Nothing interesting happens. Why is a show like this even on TV? Is it because it's seen as'wholesome?'. Wow. Do TV's writers and scripters think everyone's forgotten about good programming? It's kinda scary, if like me, you once had good TV to watch. The 'family' shows of old were really good quality. Nothing like this nonstop boring awfulness. No comparison whatsoever. Sad sad.
