[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]TLC is complicit in this. They need their own reckoning.[/quote] Came here to comment on this as well. The sane-washing of the extreme outlier practice of the Quiverful/Gothard world was really quite bizarre in retrospect. They were promoted, made famous and there was no critique of their lifestyle. They made piblic appearances as these fun, maybe kooky just-folks. The parents have that super-nice, gentle demeanor which translates as harmless and decent if that's all you see. They were depicted as being perfect, really. Even though I remember that lots of people knew about the cult and commenters on social media talked criticlly about the family, the network depicted as essentially benign; maybe a bit eccentric but "normal," when actually their beliefs are or were on the fringes. The truth is that it's very hard to live in any extreme religious community and there are a million examples throughout the years to prove it. [/quote]
