[quote=Anonymous]Sorry - fixed the formatting [quote=Anonymous]This has been my issue with the Duggars from the start: JimBob and Michelle were raised in religious, but not fundie, homes. They got to cheerlead, attend school and college, take birth control and all sorts of normal things. Then they CHOSE a life of fundamentalism and restriction. One can argue that they rebelled against how their were raised and found another way they were happier with. How can they not see that their children should be allowed to make the same choices and privileges that they had? Why aren't their own children allowed to find their own path?[/quote] And here is the thing. JimBob and Michelle lived a normal life until Josh was around 6, born again christians yes - but functioning in society and well "normal". It was after Michelle miscarried "Caleb" and got it in her head (or had it put there) that her taking birth control "murdered" her baby and she was a wicked sinner. She had to talk JimBob into the Gothardite Cult. She was the driving force of the change. JimBob has stated this on the show and its been in their books. Now say what you want about JimBob but he is a pretty shrewd business man, owning several, growing them, etc. As he sees his money train chugging off in the distance I wonder if maybe, just maybe he might not steer the family in a different direction and away from the cult. Source: I'll admit I used to watch them and then have spent way way way too much time on freejinger.[/quote]
