Dear Josh and Anna,Let me first introduce myself. I am a wife to a man, who like your Dad, welcomes each child as the Lord sends them. With 9 children, we have only half of what your parents do. I respect your parents for their rejection of worldly standards which reject children and the fact that they are willing to raise them in the fear and love of the Lord. I do not respect the fact that you all have chosen to prostitute your family for money. To sell out your privacy for the ogling of many thousands of people is something I do not pretend to understand. Sure, the money is nice...but exposing y'all to the world is something I will never get. That said, I don't watch any of the 18 Kids and Counting. I did watch your wedding show, and I must be honest; it was painful. I have an oldest son, who just groans over your family. He is 16 and a wonderful big brother. Academically, he is incredibly smart and like him, I can't wait for him to take on the world. That said, I cannot ever imagine filming the father-son chat he and his Dad (who are incredibly close) will have before their wedding. That is private; not something for public consumption.This brings me to the Monday's Today Show. How lame is all that? To take what should be an intimate, private moment between you, Anna and the ultra sound technician and broadcast it for fodder for people is exhibitionist at best and greedy at worst. What was a punch in the gut, though, is your proclamation that you and Anna, who have 24 siblings between you, will have 2, maybe 3 children. Congratulations. Planned Parenthood must've shouted for joy. I can just hear the conversation now, "We couldn't stop those whacky parents, but, Hallelujah, their oldest son has bought our anti-child mentality, hook, line and sinker". Congratulations, you have bought the majority Christian party line which is so hugely responsible for the troubles our country is in. How about public school? Is that next? I am hopeful that someday you will be horrified by those stupid, godless, worldly remarks you made, announcing that children #4 and below will not make the cut in your family. What does that say about your parents? What does that say about your siblings #4 and below? You should be thanking your God and parents daily for their dedication to raising so many in the fear and love of the Lord...not announcing that you reject it and will embrace the definition of children as property to be prudently acquired. So....Josh, are children blessings up through 2 or 3? You can't have it both ways, Mr. Duggar. Either you acknowledge children as blessings and accept each and every one that God would choose to send your way, or you acknowledge children as property to be acquired in a limited fashion, much like automobiles. Your intellectual dishonesty makes me grieve for your parents. To reject what they've done is to bite the hand that feeds you. Had your parents only had 2 or 3, you and Anna would not be earning the money from prostituting your family as your parents have chosen. The whole thing is ultimately lame and disappointing. I had expected better from you. :-)~Lisa H. Labels: Anna Duggar daughter, Josh Duggar, Joshua Duggar
