It's her body and their business, but they seem to *love* the publicity.

Their cheery website is awfully predatory; I suppose that helps pay the bills.

This next baby will be younger than their grandchild.
I am sure they are indeed organized and energetic and all that good stuff, but it still seems more like a cult than a family.

I don't know what it is about them, but I can't watch for more than 5 minutes.
Does the woman still have a uterus, enough already.

Wonder if the son and wife will have a large family too?

Still not understanding why anyone cares, obviously those who have posted on here don't like them so why do you care?

At least they are not turning out crack ho's and drug dealers. Their kids are alot more respectful than any I see in todays world.

Why does eveyrone "care"? Its a TV show about a contraversial couple. Everyone is giving their opinions,which is what we often do here.

I dont "care" but certainly would have a higher opinion of these folks if they adopted some needy kids. I would bet that would be more of "Gods will" then being pregnant every year.

Why do you think it would be more of God's will to adopt?????

If this family is not on any kind of federal aid that our tax dollars are paying for I fail to see why it matters how many kids they have. Just because other people don't believe the way they do doesn't make what they believe wrong, it just makes it different than the majority of the people.

So many people are so critical and concerned w/ other people's business.

Why would anyone consider this controversial? They have the right to have as many kids as they choose. They seem like great parents and a great family.

I do not think they are on any kind of Federal Aid. That sounds like a false rumor.

I saw a few minutes of an episode where they had gone to help another HUGE family, build a home.

Apparantly, there are many others like them...having more than a dozen kids. Almost like a CULT.

Come on, 19 kids is contraversial. And it our "business" becasue they choose to be on TV, and not only their own reality show, but they hit all the morning news shows and I understand do autograph/meet n' greets often. Why wouldnt people discuss this? I dont see anyone on here doing anything but adding an opinion,and its a FORUM!! Jeeesh

That is retarted....why would they want a Downs sydrome baby? I am sure they consider the health of their baby and that is why she lives a very healthy lifestyle. Do most woman that have many children hope for a Downs baby

ETA...after a certain amount of children you don't need to pay taxes. I think the number is 6 or 7 kids. That's what I was told from people who have 8 kids. No taxes.

Also, I keep seeing in a commercial for their show, the kids sliding around in the snow on big placards that say "Duggar for Senator"?????!!!! I don't watch the show so I don't know what goes on. Is he, has he, run for the senate?? WTH qualifies him for the senate?? Lively sperm???
I don't know where you are getting your information. In our country we don't force steralize people....heck even when the state is supporting the octo mom nobody steralized her
