Michelle Duggar: Baby Doing 'As Well As Can Be Expected'

It saddens me to see so many negative and judgmental comments regarding a women and her choices to have as many children as she is free to have! It is called Freedom.. and they are caring and loving their children. They have a faith in God (be that whoever they choose) and they are self providing! Those of you who have not made the same choice as this woman, have the SAME FREEDOM to NOT have as many. Quit adding to our negative world and find something positive to say,, it certainly goes a lot further and improves morality in all! Your negative comments just breed contempt and fuels more negative fires! Seriously, look at your owns lives and improve them... this family seems to have it right, regardless of 1 child or 19.

God Bless you & your family,

I hope and pray for the duggers through this tough time. i pray for michelle and jim bob as well as the other brothers and sisters to many people are putting the duggers down for having such a big family (these are children from GOD) and you know what maybe if they where living off the state we should be upset but they owe no one anything lets thing about that how many of us owe banks for loans or houses we cant afford they owe no one anything for there house cars ect keep up the awsome work duggers (all of ya) we love you and are praying for you all

It is all well and good to say the Duggers have a right to ;have as many children as they want; they also have the choice NOT to have so many children. Our earth is overpopulated right now; woods and any open areas not being usd by man, are being torn down to make room for more and more houses being built. Apparently these people having all of these children are not concerned with anything beyond their own wants. Every family that has more than 2-3 children is putting a burden on our earth's resources. Instead of making so many babies, they should be educating themselves. If they want more babies, adopt. I do however hope that the 19th Dugger will be okay.

Best comment yet!

I agree with, "it's a vagina, not a clown car" I think this is Gods way of saying 18 is enough!!

LOL!!

That's the BEST! Sh is a BEAST! Horrible what did she think would finally happen? stupid idiot! The body was not meant for that abuse!

It a same for you to have said that. For God is the only one who can gibe life. I dont see it fit for you to speak on her situation since you obviously are not aware of who they are in Jesus. To have been on Gods mind for HIm Jesus to have given them so many beautiful and healthy non deprived children you need to praise Jesus as well for there wonderful blessings. I agree as well that there are so many other children in the world that need fathers and mothers but it were they predested by God to do. We have to learn our place and the mind of God to know what we as indiviuals are to do. Until then please dont speak for others unless you ae aware of their place in the kingdom.

You must not know their story. You should find out why they don't use birth control before you judge. They know there are starving children and that the earth is in trouble. They go on mission trips and help those starving children. God didn't intend for them to adopt children, if He wanted them to adopt kids that's the way He would have lead them. Just because someone has a different belief system than you doesn't mean it's wrong. It may not be the right choice for you, but the Duggars choose to follow the Lord.

"I just find it reprehensible that they didn't adopt this many kids."

Same goes for you. Have you adopted 19 kids?

I'm sure there are lots of ways in which they could criticize your lifestyle if they wanted to waste their time doing so.

So, I guess God must hate me because I have had recurrent miscarriages, huh. I am so tired of all the people out there who say things like "it's God's will" without thinking about how hurtful their comments can be in certain circumstances. If you believe in God, then you believe in being kind. Please remember if it is God's will on the positive side of the coin, then it must be His will on the negative, too. I don't think I've done anything in my life to deserve the pain of going through these losses...

After I found out that that I have a disorder could be harmful to babies, I decided NOT to try anymore for my health and the sake of the little life that could be lost. Perhaps this "scare" will make the Duggars think a little bit harder about the strain that all of these pregnancies is putting on Michelle's body and the risks to her life and the lives of any more babies. If she believes in God, then she will value her life and avoid doing anything that could put her life/baby's life at risk. Perhaps God is trying to warn her or tell her that enough is enough?

Did you adopt any kids? If they want and can afford 20 kids then they should be allowed to have them. Why should they take responsibility for all those unwanted orphans that their own parents did not want. I hate people like you making rude comments like it is the Duggars fault that there are unadopted kids.

I agree with BARB 100%.

Honestly, it's pathetic how judgmental all you people are about a family that is FAR more charitable than any of you ever will be. First, there is nothing sick about having children. Shame on you for saying such a thing! Second, aren't there a lot worse families you could pick on? For example, druggies popping kids on the taxpayer dime? Welfare blobs who don't work a day in their life but have 10 kids? Child molesters, murderers, criminals? What on earth have they done to earn your criticism? They work for their own money are are able to afford every one of their children. They donate time and money serving others in destitute countries. Their children are law-abiding, well-educated and well-adjusted citizens. So what's the problem?

How much money and time do you donate? How did your kids turn out? I dare say most of you couldn't begin to compare with this family and you are downright jealous that they have the ability to do what they do. Typical liberals tearing down anyone who isn't like them and who can actually live a life without so much dysfunction.

I don't think you realize exactly how difficult it is to adopt. The fees and yes I said fees, can run from $25,000-$50,000. Yes there are a lot of children waiting to be adopted but the process is long and costly so it's not like you just go and adopt a child and it's done.

What do you all mean, "The earth is in trouble?" Are you the few, the proud, the dumb who have been taken in by Al Gore and the rest of the alarmist who want to scare us into submitting to a one world government? I think so. Get off it. Mankind has never been able to do one thing to cause damage to the earth. Watch Jessie Ventura's new show. Oh, and get on the internet and read. You're all being fooled.
