was reading today that Jessa is upset that not much is being said in the media about her pregnancy...REALLY?? how about just being joyful with your friends, family and husband?  Why feel the need for the media to be involved?   I NOW THE ANSWER< JUST SAD<  Another duggar baby being brought int o the world for no other reason then publicity.   Wonder now that the money is no longer coming in, how many of these marriages will last and how many "fell in love with the Duggar girls because of the money?

Wow....so that group (according to that article) doesn't believe in adoption??  Because the sins of the parents are also the sins of the child?  Double wow.  But they don't believe in abortion?  So let children without parents stay where?  In an institution without love and nurturing?  I don't believe in abortion either except under certain circumstances but it seems that they are talking out of both sides of their mouths.  Bring as many children to the earth as possible but THEY won't adopt any of them.  Hypocrites!

@Mmsfoxxie The second girl that got married, Jessa I believe, stated that they were going to have children (she is pregnant now) AND adopt children.  She said this on the show before this whole Josh thing.  I didn't watch or read the OP's link, but I don't understand the not adopting thing.  I totally understand the abortion position JMHO.

tends2dogs, I was responding to what the brother, (Daniel I believe) who said that was one of the reasons he has distanced himself from his family...they did not like the fact that he and his wife adopted.  His family believes that the sins of the parents visit the child.  The first link explains it.

Now is Jessa a Duggar?   The families, in general, don't believe in adoption.  Guess they think their blood is tainted.

Unfortunately though, it has to be Anna's decision to leave the marriage......

Yes this is right, but she does have biblical freedom to leave this marriage and move on. She is free to go.  I do understand if she feels that she cannot leave because she has all the children to care for but her anger and disrespect for him is probably going to rise and eat her alive!!!  He has acted not like a husband and family man but rather a single man. She was completely forgotten. This will come up inside herself. There is no stopping this. Marriage is two people who love and RESPECT each other and this really has been torn apart by Josh himself.

I agree Anna should leave, but probably won't. I also believe their religion is such that women are silenced and subservient to the men. With that being said, would she be able to get away from JimBob's clutches - he seems to be the one in charge.

Unfortunately, her family would pressure her to stay with him.

I really hope that they would stay silent about it and let Anna decide for herself what is best for her and her children. They should really just allow it to take place as ANNA wishes. She herself and no one else will have to live with all of this. So sad for her right now as she just had a baby and is so vulnerable. My heart goes out to her and I hope she gains strength inside herself.

Anna will stay with him, no question.

Sad situation to be in for Anna.  If she doesn't leave Josh, he will continue his ways throughout their marriage.  She will wake someday much older and tired and realize what a HUGE mistake she made in staying with that creep.  Best she face the reality of life and move away and move on.  Hope this all serves as an excellent lesson for those who watched that family, and are fans of made up nonsense.

Yep. I thought the same things. That one day she will wish she had her youth back and did not stay with an abusive person. For this is how I view these kind of men. Selfish, decietful, hateful and secretly harboring a way of life that she doesn't approve of. How long can a woman stand that? I would worry about diseases...

I've seen some of the women Josh had affairs with online. Most of them look like strippers or prostitutes. If I were Anna I'd be afraid to catch an std.

She probably doesn't even know about STDs.    People who are that sheltered and brainwashed don't even have enough reality-based information at their disposal.

It's just awful that she will end up being another victim.
