The Duggars And Choice
Wenchypoo said:
“Michelle Duggar (from the TLC show in 2006) is pregnant with child #18…I don’t know what’s worse–this or the FLDS breeding! Both kinds are draining our social service system dry. Remember–the dad is a real estate broker, so you just KNOW he’s not making any money right now.
I wrote about this family back in 2006.”
I say, “from the waste basket indeed.”
I don’t know Wenchypoo’s stand on the issue of pro-life issues. Perhaps Wenchypoo is pro-life. I do not know.
What I do know is that we are all very interested in people giving us the right to make our own choices. On the other hand, however, when a person makes a choice that we don’t like, we make unfounded assumptions and accusations. We do not know that the Duggars accept government assistance. It is most likely that they do not, as they seem to present themselves as having a no debt lifestyle. That lifestyle is one of responsibility, not liability. In other words, they would be most likely to view it as improper (to say the least) for them to accept government aid.
There is also an assumption that Dad makes no money. Dad (if I recall correctly) is also an attorney, so he is not totally dependent on real estate. Interestingly enough, I dare say that there’s a fair amount of money coming to them from the Discovery Channel. They seem to have a re-direct on the Duggar’s web page right now.
In the end, my question is this? Why cannot these people be left to make their choices? IF she were aborting all of these children hardly anything (if anything at all) would be said. It seems that the freedom of choice is reserved only for those who do not have Christian values and ethics.
Just musing…
