I'm very happy to see this news. The Duggars need out of the spotlight to deal with the sexual abuse issues in their family, in my opinion.

TLC dumps Duggar '19 Kids' show for good

More will be released. Apparently, TLC is working with two child sexual abuse national agencies. Put that on tv and educate your audience, the LEARNING channel.

It looks like Duggars will be involved in one of the specials about Child Sexual Abuse. That will be OK if professionals, who have had dozens of years treating victims and perp can be included too. This family won't break their denial on tv.

I thought one of the victims was going to South America on a mission. I wonder how long her mission is, or how TLC will film her The special to air next month....

I'll still take this news. Families in denial don't belong on tv.

PC police PC police, TLC shouldn't bow down before the liberal Nazis. This is all Obama's fault. Oh wait just another private company doing what it deems best for its shareholders, moving along.

Possibly. I only know the facts of parents who didn't protect four daughters who became victims of their son.

The whole Gothard ideaology is too cult-like for most. The arguments have been written many times for this one.

This network did cancel other shows with less evidence and victims.

I don't know specifics of pedophiles in other shows whose parents protected him so he didn't serve jail time or get treated by a trained therapist.

Good. Maybe now they'll chill out with the breeding.

I agree mkpunk!

I suspect the pending lawsuit by the outside victim was the last straw. It's beyond bizarre in my mind that the parents think they will help others in a one hour special. They are still taking NO responsibility for their part in failing to protect their daughters.

People magazine needs to dump them too. The exclusive stories have paid well. Plus their book publisher...they all need to step bag so this family can deal with their denial and what made them sign up for TLC anyway. Families in crisis don't put their kids on tv and in magazines, plus have four more kids.

Better in July than trying them on screen for another season.

This link matters. Not everyone realizes a new DHL ( Dept. of Health Services in Ark. got another, NEW 911 call in May, 2015 about the safety and we'll being of a Duggar child. The Child Protective Services (CPS) worker had to call for law enforcement assistance to see the child, as the parents refused to let the worker on their property.

I don't think this helped their case.

HEAR IT: Official calls 911 on Duggar family - NY Daily News

Damn PC Police. A little fondling of little sisters (and a babysitter) is no big deal in the Bible Belt. . . . is that the argument? I dunno.
