I have survived physical, mental, emotional abuse from my father and sexual abuse from a father figure, family member and an coach (3 separate men)<br /><br />It is not something I have really talked about in public & only close family know particulars. Here's the clincher; I overcame the abuse and forgave the abusers even to the point of remaining in a relationship with one. This may cause eyebrows to go up; however, I mention it because my saving grace was and is every day of my life, Jesus Christ! <br /><br />I can't imagine having the world know and judge my life!! I have made huge mistakes, broken so many of the commandments of God's Holy Word and, yet, I know I am loved and treasured! It took a long time and counseling to help me move past my childhood. <br /><br />I suppose I'm posting this because I want anyone who is being abused to know to tell someone and keep telling people until you get help. Don't feel ashamed because it truly is the perpetrators sin, not yours.<br /><br />I, also, want people to understand that you can forgive and move on in your life!!! Hopefully, the person or persons you forgive will realize their sinfulness and come to know the Lord as their Savior! <br /><br />I pray for ALL of you know that God will never leave you, nor forsake you. He will use what others meant as bad for the glory of His Kingdom!!! I pray for God's spiritual strength, comfort, guidance and peace to fill all of you. <br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17403290635435498311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6925412444274057427.post-90105053082172365512015-06-13T22:38:15.280-05:002015-06-13T22:38:15.280-05:00Hang in there Duggars!!

While what Josh did was wrong, which he has privately and openly admitted, continuing to tear down and victimize the girls is also wrong. There is not a sin, aside from "grieving the Holy Spirit" that isn't forgivable in God's eyes. The apostle Paul is a great example of this as he hated Christian and contributed to them being killed before his transformation\conversion to Christianity. Josh sought forgiveness from God through Jesus Christ then went to his victims also seeking forgiveness. God, through his mercy and grace forgave him. Unfortunately for the world that isn't enough. My prayer is that the Lord will use this huge trial for His good. Romans 8:28 We need to remember "All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God" Romans 3:23. "But God demonstrated is own love for us in that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us." Romans 6:23 Continue to keep your eyes on the "Author and Finisher of our faith!"Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6925412444274057427.post-34946770394670800242015-06-13T05:41:59.770-05:002015-06-13T05:41:59.770-05:00I totally agree with all of these comments of supp...I totally agree with all of these comments of suppor.

If this were ongoing behavior the fine, but every indication is that his unhealthy behavior was part of the past and not part of his present or future.

Even if they are an adult now, the incidents they committed as a juvenile are kept under private documents. The police chief was the one who chose to release the documents. This was not done accidentally, and she was within a few months of retiring when she released these documents. This protects minors when they are young and making stupid mistakes. Generally, they grow up and learn from these mistakes done as youths and become responsible adults. You most likely would not commit these mistakes as a adult because you are wiser. A lot of these youths are embarrassed by what they did as younger people and wonder why they ever committed them in the first place. They are immature and make unwise decisions.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6925412444274057427.post-89298708768182426042015-06-11T15:01:03.648-05:002015-06-11T15:01:03.648-05:00I am praying for your whole family.

I don'...I really can empathize with the girls. I don't understand why laws were broken by releasing records that were supposed to be sealed. There was no consideration on the part of the tabloid that they were causing these girls to relive something that happened a long time ago. I challenge everyone one of these so-called "reporters" to search their own lives and be honest about things that happened in their own lives. How would they feel if it was all brought to light? I was the victim more than once. I don't look at the boys that might have wanted to play doctor as molesters. I was the victim of an adult when I was only 5 years old. This went on for a number of years. When the older boy cousins found out about what had happened to us girls they thought it was open season to do the same things. There was no protect for me or counseling. I grew up thinking I had deserved what they were doing. It was only through God's love and His forgiveness that I was able to heal and move on. How dare these people feel that they are right in making these girls publicly have to defend themselves over all of the exaggerations that they are printing. What Josh did was similar to the boys that used to sneak up behind be to try and touch my breast to see if it was real in the 6th grade. Should I ruin their lives by making accusations against them? Where do you stop? Just because they are on TV doesn't give you the right to try and destroy their lives. You don't have a right to degrade them just because they stand up for their Christian values. I would much rather watch the Duggars than a show about the Kardasians.

Its funny when SOME people are in bondage they want people to be in bondage with them. I am so glad for the Death and Resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ. I am glad that he has given to us life and life more abundantly and that he has broken the bonds of sin on those who put their trust in him. As Christians we understand the power that comes through forgiveness. May many see the forgiveness and repentance that your family demonstrates through the Lord Jesus Christ and desire to also to be set free from the power of sin and the attacks of satan. Just because something bad has happen to you or you done something bad we have a very loving heavenly father that is compassionate and merciful who wants to help us through are difficulties in life. He will only help as much as we allow him too. May other put their trust and faith in the Lord Jesus and see what God can truly do.<br /> Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6925412444274057427.post-33161762309843001632015-06-11T07:00:21.840-05:002015-06-11T07:00:21.840-05:00Well done Duggars!

I have to say my reaction was complete shock, due to a very bad car accident im disabled and in pain always. I thought a out your family after reading 10,000.00 versions of what had been done. Because I have more time on my hands than most, I went to bed with your family in my head and heart. The next day, the internet was flooded with updates of what was printed and what happened. I posted on your families facebook a long apology for all of you, telling you to hang in there reasonable people with half a brain knew there was more to the story than what we were seeing on internet news, I posted it hoping your family might read it and know not all people can be fooled, I immediately started receiving notifications from people who do not know me calling me every name I could imagine, at one point I said ladies and gentlemen, please let me reply to what and why I typed what I did before continuing to call me names, I could not keep up, evil people saying these things to me. I had put alot of thought laying in bed about the rag mag In Touch. How did they get this report? Why was a sealed juvenile report released for the public to see? Other people saying I bet 15 or more girls come forward saying Josh has been doing it all along! My reaction was immediate! What??? Are you really trying to convince people that? Because rest assured if it were any of your daughters you would have been standing in the police department demanding action be taken!!! So that eliminated that accusation. My next point was how do you all think the magazine received this police intorigation? Dont you all see, this is an attack on this poor family that are probably crying themselves to sleep thinking about their beloved brother, son and husband reading the most despicable comments??? Dont you realize people commit suicide all the time from cyber bullying??<br />How dare you post such horrific things to a 27 year old with a wife and 4 children??? Their hatred was eating me up. I do think it was a good idea to do the interviews you all did. It certainly answered alot of questions that hopefully shut people up. I feel, the worst thing that happed to your family was the vicious act of stealing and copying a CHILDS sealed juvenile report and submitting it for the world to see!!!! They or he or she has stolen a piece of your privacy maliciously supplying it to a magazine to defame your family. Sue Sue Sue all parties involved. What was done to your family was by every angle breaking the law. I am sure you already have said to eachother the one mistake made was going to police at all! I wish for all your family to move forward with the love and respect you all have for eachother. Josh, hold your head up high! Remember you were 14 and what happened is long forgiven!
