I think the Duggar s are only doing the show now to have weddings and over the top honeymoons and huge gender reveal parties free by having TLC pay for all this expensive stuff by having it filmed. I don't think their hearts are in the show anymore and they seem extremely uncomfortable in front of the cameras. There was a purpose at one-time for Jim Bob and Michelle to do the show and they loved sharing their faith with everyone. That has all changed with this next generations and they are just doing it to make money and have vacations and special occasions paid for.

I am sure they will get another season for John David's big wedding but who knows after that. All the staged parties are getting old. Time to just do special and check in from time to time. It is also not the same without the whole family. Another opt-in would be if they could find a new network.

It gave the HAWKS organization some free publicity and gave Ben an opportunity to put himself out there as a "coach" for the day. Kind of reminds me of his dabbling with rap music for a short time. I feel sorry for Ben in some ways. While he seems to be a loving dad, he doesn't appear to have much direction in his life as far as a career. I thought this was a priority for JimBob when he screens potential mates for his daughters, that they are able to provide for them.

Were these courtships or something else? I dated different guys prior to gettting married. Some were more serious than others. Every single one of them were learning experiences for me and I have no regrets. On the oher hand, high school friends of mine who married their first beau right out of high school are almost all divorced now and on their second or third spouse, forty years later. My husband and I have been married for thirty years. I wish the best for the second generation Duggars, but none of them have been married long enough to come to the conclusion that they will stay married for the long haul.

I remember years ago when they first started courting & many people thought they weren't a great match (I too wasn't sure about how keen Jess's was on Ben) but I must be honest they are the most well matched young couple & many much older people could take a leaf out their book as to how to show respect & love to each other. What a very nice guy Ben seems to be & they make a lovely couple with 2 very lovely boys.
