Ok...I know everyone is thinking that one of them is pregnant by me bumping this thread lol, but not at this time.
Apparently Jinger would like to eventually move to a big city, which her parents may not exactly like:

I think there's been a lot of information leaked that Jinger may have been sent to a re-education camp a few times due to her forward thinking. If you google "Free Jinger" there's a lot of discussion on this.

So over Today having the family on to announce their pregnancies. This is an example of the stuff that made me switch from Today to GMA. Apparently I'm not alone - maybe NBC should pay attention to its content/producers instead of blaming its hosts.

Although they can financially provide, I feel that when you have that many children, you're not giving each individual child the time he/she deserves to have with his/her parents (it would be impossible to do so with that many children). I am one of three, and I treasure all of the personal attention and time I get to spend with my parents. I couldn't imagine not having that.
Each to their own, I suppose! The show is entertaining/interesting.

Anyone read about the Duggars' Tennessee anti-abortion activism?
Jim Bob and Michelle can kiss my ass. They are anti-contraception and anti-choice for abortion. Their decisions are their business. Now they want it to impact others' lives. I want Michelle's uterus and vagina to mind their own business. Stop trying to reduce and potentially eliminate choice for other people. As for Jim Bob, I believe that restrictions on contraception, abortion, and reproductive rights would be reduced around the world if men could get pregnant.
The comments section of one of the articles made me smile. Both women and men are telling the Duggars (and legislators) to kiss their asses. We won't control your 19 kids and counting so stop trying to control us. Mandatory waiting periods and mandatory counseling are scare tactics and control tactics.

Haven't read the article. I should look for it, just to read the comments.
Although I do have to wonder how in the hell she can truly be a "mother" when she has 18 children still living at home? There isn't enough hours in the day to be the kind of mother that your children need when you have to take care of 18 children.

Eeeeeeexactly.
Every time I get into an argument with a guy about this and they argue that women can "Just go on birth control," or "Just have the baby and give it up for adoption," or "Just have their tubes tied," I always picture the episode of Friends where Rachel is pregnant, she suffers stomach pains, goes to the hospital, and after they determine she had Braxton-Hicks contractions, Ross kind of rolls his eyes and says that they're no big deal. Rachel responds, "Okay, no uterus, no opinion."

I would normally post the articles but doing an internet search for "Duggars abortion" would provide a clearer picture of the different perspectives on this topic.
Oh and the Duggars can kiss my ass. Again and again. Put whipped cream on it.

I think they wore out their welcome a loooong time ago.

The Duggars still have fans either based on religion, their show, or their views on contraception and abortion. The Duggars are going from one state to the next.
I need to stop reading these newer and older articles. It is pissing me off. I respect different opinions but not if people need all of their opinions to become the law. Calling abortion "baby Holocaust"? Bitch, bye.

Hypocrites. So, it's okay for Michelle Duggar to exercise her reproductive choice--even if it means leaving her children motherless, but it's not okay for other women?
I guess they have to keep themselves relevant since it's been a while since she's been pregnant.

I guess I just can't understand how someone can be against birth control AND abortion. Could you imagine how many unwanted, abandoned, under-cared-for children there would be in the world if we prohibited both of these options?
