The Duggars are expecting a(nother) girl!

I agree, Patty. Well said. Thank you for being the voice of reason. If you've every watch the show, you would see that they are an extremely loving family. And those children are much better behaved than most kids who only have 1 or 2 siblings. They are doing something right. And you know what that is? They put GOD first. We could ALL take lessons from them!

I can see that a lot of you have not seen this family on any of their shows. Otherwise you would not be making these nasty comments. As many of you others that have seen the show, are saying, they are debt free. It took them about seven years to build their house and each child had a hand in some part of the construction. The parents are very involved in their lives, they pray together and play together. They shop at Aldi's...watch some of the re-runs and you may recognize the store. They buy clothes from a re-sale shop. Jim Bob said they pay an amount for shoes for the whole family at what it costs some people for one pair of shoes. Their industrial kitchen appliances were bought at auction for a small amount of money and it's worth $100k. I wouldn't begrudge them anyhing. Through smart real estate deals, they made money. The children look real happy to me!!

Duh....The get money im sure from the Today show, TLC, discovery....>They have done shows on every channel. Plus since the father doesn't work...Isn't he a pastor or something like that. What TLC more often.....there is a bunch of ppl out there with more then a dozen children...YIKES...

He has his own real estate business . He was in the Arkansas State Senate . Michelle is also a real estate agent . They make good money . They don't depend on anybody . and to the person that called them "poor kids" They are happy ,intelligent,well adjusted kids . And have parents that love them . I call these kids "RICH" in every way ...

If you watched the show about them you would know. How ignorant to condemn them when all you know about them is the number of kids they have. I'm often overwhelmed by my 3 kids, but they sure aren't anywhere as helpful and respectful as those Dugger kids. We should all take lessons from them.

THEY SPEND MORE TIME WITH THEIR 17 KIDS THAN MOST PARENTS SPEND WITH ONE - THEY DON'T HAVE TV OR VIDEO GAMES - BY CHOICE - SO ALL THEIR TIME CAN BE SPENT INTERACTING AS A FAMILY, NOT STARING AT SOME SCREEN.
THE KIDS ARE ALL HOME SCHOOLED AS WELL, SO THEY GET THEIR MOM'S FULL ATTENTION ALL DAY.
THE ONLY THING DISGUSTING HERE IS YOUR LACK OF TOLERANCE AT THEIR CHOICE.

Are you for real?!?!? Based on your comments, you must have a "Napoleon Complex"? The average person is NOT built like a supermodel, and how cruel are you to say such awful things about a person. Especially someone who obviously loves and cares for their family. If there were only more people in this country who cared for their children there would be a lot less child abuse, abortion and neglected children. Grow up already!! Maybe you should watch the shows about them, THEN you would change your attitude. And thank you to all of you who pointed out for those who judge the Duggar's without having all their information correct, that they own several commercial real estate properties that add to their income. They ARE NOT sucking the taxpayers dry ike other Americans who keep popping out children with several different fathers. They are a loving, charitable, compassionate family. If only more were like that . .

Helena, your comments were so childish and very insulting.

If this family wants lots of kids, who the hell are you or any of us commenting on their lifestyle? As long as we are not helping them financially (and seeing the show & reading about them--they are doing very well), who made us God & Master to comment on how many kids they want/have or what her body looks like. You aren't sleeping or living with this woman, so why the hell should you care?

I would not elect to have that many children myself but that is my personal belief. To each his own. and yes Helena, maybe you should be a little less critical of others and take a long look at yourself my dear.

God Bless Them. My comment is for Helena, you are one messed up individual to even think the way you do. You are indeed cruel. I hope you don't have any children. People like you make me sick. You need to look up this speaker by the name of Voddie Baucam listen to his speech he made on 1/29/06 at the Heights in Texas. That message is made for people like you.

It's all just amazing. I don't think it needs to be a reality show,for which they're most certainly paid well, but if thy aren't (apparrentlly) in the welfare line, then I'm just thrilled for them

I agree with you 100% ,the only reason they're having more kids is the publicity.!! I think the father should be called "Father Rabbit" and the mom NUTTS. Good god girty,they're sex maniacs.somebody send them a box of Rubbers.
