After reading some of the comments that have been posted, all that I can say is that at least they are responsible adults who are living debt free, and with no help from the government. If you are truly a friend or know the duggars you would see them as loving, honest, and very caring parents. Haven been an adoptive child myself, I know of the need for adoptions but why criticize them for choosing to have their own children. It seems to me that instead of being mean and hateful towards the duggars worry about other things that are wrong in your own life or lack of life that you may have. And remember that the kids are being taught how to play the violin and the piano, homed schooled, and second languages so they're going to be not depending on the government for support in their adult lives and oh yeah... they'll be smarter than you'll ever be. That is good.
