We didn't get married in "the old days" and we didn't listen to those who said we were too young. We both have careers and have raised and are raising 4 children. We managed to turn out just fine... when you lean on the Lord to guide your steps, age isn't an issue. If Joe and Kendra are trusting Gods will for their life (and not doing what others think they should or shouldn't be doing), then they are going to be just fine.

Very good post! Statistically...Anonymous #3-Agreed! Very good post! Statistically, a lot of young marriages don't make it. One of the biggest issues is finances. It's always a smart plan to begin your married life debt-free, with 3-6 months worth of monthly income in the bank, and a healthy life insurance policy in place. Should a medical emergency or job loss occur, there's somewhat of a cushion to soften the blow. Should a pregnancy occur right away, there's money for OB-Gyn visits and money toward a delivery/newborn check-ups/well-baby check-ups. Should a spouse pass, the remaining spouse is financially taken care of for quite a while (house paid off, any unpaid debt paid off, spouse's income replaced), so that he/she isn't forced to make quick decisions that might not be the best. Most young people aren't mature enough to think all this through, nor do most have parents who teach them this kind of thing. Most young marrieds these days are heavily in debt to start, from college loans, credit card debt, and wanting it all now (expensive vacations, regularly eating out, big expensive fully furnished homes, expensive cars, etc.). Frankly, the Duggar offspring couldn't afford the lives they live, if they didn't have reality TV money. Biblically speaking, the man is supposed to have a means to provide for a wife and children and build the house before he adds a wife and the potential children. Just sayin'.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6925412444274057427.post-63625221636449221092017-06-08T21:31:51.021-05:002017-06-08T21:31:51.021-05:00The Bates look genuine and happy (like they are re...The Bates look genuine and happy (like they are real) no real show or put on. Gil is funny and they probably need better than UP to corral the bunch. The Duggars are minus Jim Bob, Michelle, Josh and Anna and they were strong characters/people. It wanes now basically. Jeremy, Ben and Derick ...Derrick probably could hold the show if he was so inclined to do so. Derick comes off as genuine. I'm looking forward to Joy and Austin's wedding. The couples from the Bates family glow, it's apparent, that there is magic there.

Their platform is so powerful I wish they would talk more about God influencing all their life choices. How do they discern God's path?

Please do your research and homework before you rush to insult other posters. Truth: "Josh Duggar Seeks To Join Sisters' Breach-Of-Privacy Lawsuit"- FOX news http://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/2017/06/06/josh-duggar-seeks-to-join-sisters-breach-privacy-law-suit.html. It is not a FOX news item, it is an Associated Press item. The Associated Press is a long-established, highly credible news source that vets its sources well.<br /><br />If you are unwilling to read the Police Report for yourself, then you have no interest in the truth. The report is what the victims themselves reported to Law Enforcement, not what someone else said. The truth is the truth. You owe it to the girls to read it in its entirety. Reading the police report is not gossiping/tale-bearing; it is the Duggar girls factual account of the incidences. For the Christians in the room, not reading the report, then accusing others of lying and hate-mongering is being a false witness. King Solomon advises us to gather all the facts before passing judgement on whether a thing is truth or a lie-the facts are in the police report.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6925412444274057427.post-27930796876692607722017-06-07T20:17:36.031-05:002017-06-07T20:17:36.031-05:00Hasn't anyone wondered why Anna didn't als...Hasn't anyone wondered why Anna didn't also file in that lawsuit?

Young women should not be under the assumption that a man will always be able to provide for them. There's also something to be said for enjoying some independence before making a lifelong commitment to another person, as well as allowing for more time to mature. Just because expectations may have been different in the "old days", does not mean they were always the right thing for everyone.
