[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP -- the Duggars are heartbroken this happened and they dealt with it in a dignified and responsible manner.  the way they handled it allowed their family to survive. Josh has not re-offended.  The sisters seem okay. Josh also survived and has a family of his own.  What -- he should be thrown in jail for life?  Killed? What?

What the heck is it that you all want from this family?

It is as if you are all saying - ha ha ha they are a bunch of idiots and deserve all this.

Bad stuff happens in the best of families.

This family handled it well.

Leave them alone.[/quote]

They handled it well, huh?  Seriously, all the discussion about religion and political involvement avoids the central question. [b]If someone molested your daughter would you think it sufficient for that person to go work construction for a few months and get a stern talking to?[/b] If you separate out everything else and answer that question honestly I think you will see beyond the noise and understand what the furor is all about.

I would like to hear one supporter answer that question honestly. [/quote]

Has any of the supporters answered this question yet?[/quote]

I do not consider myself a supporter, but the problem I see here is that the "someone" is also their 14 year old child, who they also presumably love and care about.  I can see what an awful difficult position it would be. For example, I would want professional counseling for all, but would know that it could result in my child being charged with a crime, going to jail, or facing a lifetime of public registration as a sex offender.  I'm not saying what they did was right, and I believe I would report it and make the "right"decisions if it were me. But I still see that it is a tough situation to be the parent of both the victims and the perpetrator. [/quote]
