They have no source of income. He lost his DC job, the car lot closed, I think this was a chance at free rent.

If (when) Josh goes to jail, will JB and Michelle just support Anna and their 7 kids?

Probably. I don't see her going out and getting a job.

TLC will try a spin-off. Anna slinging burgers at Five Guys while the kids raise themselves.

I think the aunts still living at home will become fill in moms (and/or Anna's oldest daughter will become a junior mom and raise the others). It's how the kids were all raised in the big house. Financially, I don't think it's terribly expensive. They need food, but are living for free on the property, have no cost of schooling, use hand me down clothing, don't do activities...and they probably qualify for WIC or SNAP to cover some of the food cost.

Will TLC give JB the money from that one too? Like Counting On?

I doubt she put that software on. Even if she did, Josh's childhood friend said he had those crappy software apps on his computers and was able to get around them no issue.

Anna knew he had 1)a problem with porn 2) had molested children/committed incest 3) a failed courtship because this came to light 4) other people in their community constantly keeping their kids away from Josh because they thought he was a predator.

Homegirl says she knew all the above and still went ahead and married him. She literally, JOYFULLY!! signed up for it. No way she leaves his ass. Any of the above would have been a dealbreaker years ago. It wasn't for her then and it won't be now.

Yep. Anna is a grown woman who is choosing to stay with a known sexual abuser of children. I don’t know why so many of you insist on defending her. She is putting her children at risk.

I defend her because I understand what it’s like to grow up in a fundamentalist church and where she is in and grew up in is 10 times worse than what I grew up in. This is not your regular variety Christianity or even strict Christianity. What she is in, grew up in, and is surrounded by, is a cult and cult members. As a society we throw the term brainwashed around but that is exactly what she is in the legitimate meaning. She is in a cult and when you start reading up on what it takes to a) understand you’re in a cult and 2) leave a cult are two enormous mental and spiritual hurdles that she has to jump through.

We know that she’s wrong, we know that she can leave but that would require her questioning the entire foundation of who she is and what she has grown up in, the literal spiritual lives of her and her children. She doesn’t have a support system that can enable her to leave. She depends wholy on Josh. This is why I defend her and I pray that people step up in her life to help her leave the marriage, if not the cult.

Oh please no excuses

She’s an adult who knowingly continued to bring children into a home with a known abuser

Call it what it is a horrific cult not a religion.

She should lose those kids immediately

The kids would probably just go to someone else in the family then. How would that even help?

Actually the local burger place is called Braum's. There's one right in Springdale on the main drag.

It tracks because “Pro Life” doesn’t care about children and just wants to ruin the lives of women.

Ummmm we did. Many times.

A lot of people in this thread really over estimate the results for kids who are taken from their moms and put into foster care. Man.

Jim Bob he not paid the adult children for appearing on the show, Derrick has re-raised this in the aftermath of Josh’s CSA/CP arrest. M and JB should really be equally as investigated as Joshua. What else is going on that could be rectified for the youngest children because it’s quite clear the older adult children are still being guided by the hand of JB out of fear of being disowned.
