I wonder if they will examine their homeschooling. Educational neglect is a thing, isn't it?

Most of the kids have gotten/are getting a GED. Making grammar mistakes doesn't mean you're uneducated.

Oh boy. I hope, for all involved, that they don't uncover anything else.

It says they launching a full investigation into their home. I guess they didn't do a full investigation previously? I can't imagine there isn't a case file on the family already, didn't the police refer them for supervision by social services?

Who said anything about grammar, Stannis? I just really doubt a mother with only a high school education herself is providing a rich educational homeschool experience for her eleventy billion children, all at once.

Getting a GED doesn't mean you are educated. Really. Anyone with a pulse can get a GED.

Really? I didn't know that. That is....peculiar.

I've known families with gaps in ages of siblings, so that an aunt and a niece can be the same age, for example. It's not as peculiar as having 18 siblings. Now that's peculiar.

Can the poster who has the list of sponsors and websites please post it in the facts thread? I'm trying to get all the news and timelines up.

PP wondered if the family is guilty of "educational neglect." They are working toward, and getting, a GED. What's the standard to show that your education is okay and not neglected? A BA?

I saw an episode where they showed a 12 or 13 year old (James) really struggling with his multiplication tables. I wondered if he had a learning disability. That is really behind.

I think a high school diploma is kind of the floor for that. GEDs are for prison inmates.

Oh that WaPo link is fake. I saw it on facebook, too, but if you look at the address its a little off.

Too bad, they should investigate! But I imagine it would not be made public if they did.

That's not a real WaPo link.

I thought prison inmates were getting college dergrees while behind bars.

Jessa was actually the one teaching the homeschool since Michelle can't bother to do anything but bang Jim Bob and count the few eggs she has left. I wonder who's running it now that they married her off.
