Duggars:
Family with 17 children and counting. Their decision to do this is based on their religious beliefs--they don't believe in the use of birth control.

The oldest son--John, I believe--just got engaged to a girl named Anna. They have decided to abstain from kissing and premarital sex until their wedding night.
In the meantime, they satisfy themselves by constantly holding hands.

Discuss.
Cyanide-
wtf they cant kiss? and he is engaged? how old is he? last time i saw the show he was about 17 i think. They are just popping babies out like crazy.

i dont know how some families can handle it, i mean talk about no privacy. Also how long are they going to have kids? i mean sooner or later they are going to have to call it quits.

He is 20, the same age as his fiancee.
Cyanide-
I wonder if he is going to follow the same footsteps as his parents when it comes to beliveing in no birth control.

So the oldest Duggar Josh recently got married and him and his lady have a website for their beautiful relationship. They also posted their registry from Walmart.

A few favorites:
- Sprite: Lemon-Lime Soda, 20 oz
- VAULT 20OZ
- Pringles
- GATORADE 32Z GRAPE
- IPOD TOUCH 8G G2
- A SHITLOAD of Beef Jerky in all sorts of flavors
- FOUR King Sized snickers bars
- THREE king sized peanut butter cups

Didn't one of their daughters pretty much disown them?

That might have been one of the other family stuff because i remember seeing one with one of the kids not seeing the others anymore but i dont think it was the duggars.

Aren't they the ones in Arkansas though? I watched part of their special and got the idea that one of their older daughters (maybe the oldest?) didn't want to be associated with them.

Yeah i think. Did the mom have dark hair and wore a black t-shirt sometimes in the interview?

The only thing I remember about their clothes is they dressed like the people did from this really conservative Baptist church back in Tulsa. All the girls wore skirts, kind of like Amish or something.

Wow, really?
They could've done, like, Bed Bath and Beyond.
Or Target.

And they also could've registered for non-food items.

If the list is true. Is it?

I hate them. They piss me off. I think it's completely irresponsible. 17 children?! There are enough people in this world.

I hate the Duggars as well. Not so much because they have 17 children (okay, if you want that many, by all means...) but I can't stand to watch them. They're so f**king backwards that it makes me want to throw something at the TV. At least Kate Gosselin's a true-life bitch. laugh.gif
