#TBT Video: Duggars in 2007

You have probably seen a number of news clips featuring the Duggars, but have you seen this one? It dates all the way back to September 2007....that's almost eight years ago!

The Today Show visited the clan at their home in Arkansas, and then Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar and their 17 children, accompanied by Grandma Duggar, took a trip to New York City to chat with Meredith Vieira about life in a large family.

During the interview, Meredith asked Jill Duggar, then 16 years old, if she wanted to have 17 children, and she said "yes ma'am!" Watch the video below:

  1. 2007 is 7 years ago (8 depending on when this video was filmed).

    1. It says it was filmed September 2007, so not quite 8 years yet, lol :)

  2. I was watching the Today show that morning and it was the first time I had heard of the Duggar family. A friend introduced me to the show a year later.

  6. Lilly and Ellie,
    I know this question is kinda random, but I was curious: do the Duggars agree with using corporal punishment?
    Thanks,
    Hannah

  8. I said I wanted 5 children...I changed my mind after having 3 under 3 yrs, which included a set of twins. Two babies with collic and sleep deprivation just about sent me over the edge. Not everyone can handle a whole bunch of kids.

  13. Please be aware that when you comment on this blog, it takes awhile for comments to show up. Therefore, when I was commenting, it did say it was 9 years ago instead of 7. I was only trying to help Lily & Ellie. What I don't appreciate is rude comments.

  15. Josh has just always sounded so mature when he speaks, even back then at age 17!
