[quote=Anonymous]I can't believe I actually watched the interview but I did.

I felt like Jim Bob at times was dismissive to Josh's actions  when he described it as over the clothes and the girls were not even aware of it until the parents told them about it. But then at other times referred to his daughters as victims and should have been protected more (mainly when he is discussing the release of documents). I felt like he was jumping on whatever side was convenient.

I found it really interesting that Jim Bob distinguished that state law was 16 and up would be an adult preying on a child and since Josh was 14/15 it was a child preying on a child. I don't think he realized he even referred to his son in that way because of the denial/defense of his sons actions during the rest of the interview.

I am curious how they would have handled it had it not been a family member that did the exact same thing. If a neighbor or family friend of the same age did the exact same actions that Josh did would their choice of dealing with it be discussing it as a family, discussing it with church elders and then police or would it have been brought to the police much sooner?

The Daily Mail has an article about their current home which was built after these incidents. I think it is good that they took the actions to design the home the way they did but I don't understand why if they had to go through that much planning to design a home to protect their daughters, why were they not sending him to live outside the home? Clearly, if they had to take all of those measures to design their house to protect their daughters they were aware that it was still a problem to be concerned about.

There seems to be a lot of confidence that the only incidents that happened were the ones Josh admitted to. I can't fathom that there haven't been others he hasn't admitted to.

The sisters that are speaking out and don't think he should be labeled and treated how he is but curious if they would be comfortable with Josh being alone in the presence of their daughters? And why was he not involved in their weddings?

Also, I thought Michelle looked like a dear in headlights and had no response when they were discussing the robo call she made about transgendered people and public restrooms.

I was not aware that Jim Bob ran for Senate before. Makes me wonder how much they were seeking fame and limelight? They always described being approached by reality TV as very happenstance but were they secretly wanting to get into something in the limelight?[/quote]
