[quote=Anonymous]I echo Chris rock when he said that American's biggest addiction is not opoids, but attention. He outlined the four general ways to get it. Show your ass, be infamous, be excellent or be a victim.

In this case it seems wrong to suggest she is doing the first but she is using her body and her beauty to promote. It's wholesome, but it's still use of her body. Can we be real about that?  It's such a given that we don't even question that of course you have to be these things on Instagram to reach that level. But I digress...I think they are promoting their way of life which they see as "Excellent." And/or superior. All of it...the eight kids, the "natural" life on the farm, the homeschooling, etc. That's why he got wounded and pissed (her too probably) when the article came out. Because it's a narcissistic injury. (I'm not saying they are narcissists). Wrapped up in faux humility these are savvy business people who want to and believe they have control. Because in the echo chamber of Instagram they have followers kissng the ring and that buffers them. But when the scope widens and surprise surprise the larger public does not universally buy it, they feel compelled to defend themselves and act victimized. Grow up... accept that you won't be adored by all and moreso to some,  your life actually looks backwards and you may be pitied and or criticized. Your brand does not appeal universally, sorry. If you feel good about yourselves (doesn't the Bible say be not of this world?) and you are making money why should you give such a big sh*t? Everyone has to love you or envy you? It's exhausting.
