Although some of you will not be watching, I feel certain that millions of others will be there to watch for you. The Duggers were very popular with many people and most of them will be anxious to see the sisters. How can you blame two young women for the sins of one very sick young man? None of us can really know what was in the hearts of the parents. Would you have been able to handle this situation to perfection, and have all your personal decisions been 100% correct? Might you want to protect your children?
I'm not a big fan of reality shows, so I think I might have watched the Dugger family for a total of about half an hour once. I thought the two girls involved were lovely and sweet. Of course they miss the money - wouldn't you? But I wonder if they don't miss the good feelings people had toward them before this story hit the fan. I've just never felt justified in casting the first stone or in condemning the child for the sins of the sibling/parents.
One of my Dad's best lessons to me was that when you point your finger at someone else there are three poointing back at you.
