Who cares one way or another? Why should a family be on TV for no other reason than producing litter after litter of babies?

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.

If the TLC network had any standards, or anything worth watching, it wouldn't have taken a sex abuse scandal to get this program axed. If the viewing public continues to watch & patronize trash tv, TLC and others like it will continue to provide it. We get what we ask for.

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

I can't figure out why this is news, or why anyone would be so concerned about it, with all the awful stuff going on in the country and the world.

Of course, one can't resist an opportunity to exercise one's self-righteous indignation.

You mean like the show about the transgender kiddies? All in the name of good clean PC, of course, but IMO the exploitation of these young children for entertainment purposes is a shame. I am done with TLC.

No they do not belong on TV. Nor do they deserve to be glorified by the media. Or paid obscene amounts of money to present themselves as a wholesome, all American Christian family.

In reality, they are an abusive cult. Physically, emotionally and psychologically abusive.

In terms on the TLC special, I am not expecting anything honest to be revealed. TLC is doing this to save face. All of the Duggar children are way too damaged and programed to ever admit that anything wrong was done - especially by their parents.

Who in the Gothard-Qiverful cult are next to God.

Incidentally, Bill Gothard who began this whole "movement" was recently forced to step down on allegations of sexual abuse.

I don't think this helped their case.

I guess in your zeal to hang this family you must have missed the part in that article classifying it as "entertainment/gossip".
