My brother and his wife have six nephews and I hate when relatives refer to them collectively as "the boys". I doubt our nephews appreciate it either. Children and young adults deserve respect to; treating them like they're parts of a whole and trying to shape/mold them in the image of their older siblings is just wrong and pretty harmful to their self-esteem. They end up more like copies (in mannerisms, speech patterns, hobbies, likes/dislikes, clothing choices, life choices, partner choices, etc.), reflecting their siblings, instead of reflecting God's creativity in making them unique.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6925412444274057427.post-47623348410828227422019-06-28T21:12:33.089-05:002019-06-28T21:12:33.089-05:00One of my good friends named their baby Grace, as ...One of my good friends named their baby Grace, as she came after a miscarriage...everyone who knew her found it quite appropriate as she genuinely loves the Lord and was deeply grateful.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6925412444274057427.post-41945181794967119252019-06-26T17:15:31.033-05:002019-06-26T17:15:31.033-05:00Gosh let’s hope not.

Maybe Mackenzie will break with this tradition & travel or go to college before she marries & has children, but regardless, just let her be a little girl until then. I know their belief system states to have as many children as god wants but I’m sure not all these girls will all want to go on getting married at 18-19 & having a baby every year. It’s like saying 5 generations of my male family line have all been in the military but my son didn’t want that path. I hope these girls are allowed to grow up & do whatever they want to do & we don’t see all the next generation popping out babies one after the other, it’s starting to wear a bit thin now that it’s all that this show is starting to be about. I keep watching as I’m forever hopeful every season that we will see other interesting things about this family but its becoming all about continual short courtships followed by weddings a few months down the line & a pregnancy announcement another few months in . . . There are so many Duggar children too that this could just go on & on & if it’s all TLC are going to show I think the programme will come to a stop sooner than you think as not everyone wants to watch the same thing series after series. It also starts to make me wonder are some of these courtships deliberately encouraged for the cameras & to keep the show going. It amazes me that these young people all fall in love after just talking to one another for a few short months, it’s no time to get to know each other. It’s possible it can happen once or twice, but it’s been the same with every single courtship, apart from the one Josiah had with Marjorie Jackson that didn’t work out. I for one am desperate to see more to their lives.

Where do you think that extra money comes from that you didn't contribute? The government. Yes, others are paying into those programs at the same time, but that only makes up for part of it. Those programs are funded by trust funds, payroll taxes, and other tax revenue that the government collects. Paying into it while you work entitles you to be part of it later. But if people got back only the amount of money they ever paid into these programs, nothing more, they'd all be in big trouble.

Moms and dads think it's a bonding thing,family identity thing, etc. Most of the children I've known have found it to be more like "I'm part of a matched set-I can't really be my own person" kind of a thing. It may have been cute while they were younger and garnered the family attention (especially the mom and dad), but as the children grew into adulthood they felt like it prevented them from being seen as an individual, with their own distinct likes and dislikes, their own goals/dreams/plans...they were forever going to be perceived by others as just one of many.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6925412444274057427.post-84470395512957656022019-06-23T19:00:59.652-05:002019-06-23T19:00:59.652-05:00@ 7:34 “Dude” how old are you?
