I get it. It's just not my opinion.
Your opinion, in this case, is for the most part, wrong. You are incorrectly stating how many of us feel about the family.
How you feel about the family is your opinion. Don't twist how others feel about them.
What about this post is incorrect?
Nah, it has nothing to do with their income (although that's one area that people whine about). They are uncomfortable with how different they are than the "norm" in this country. They don't like the older kids helping to raise the younger kids, the homeschooling, the girls wanting to become wives and mothers instead of doctors and teachers and not using birth control.
Did I miss something?

It's dishonest and creepy to edit other people's posts. Imho.
Um, no it's not. It's perfectly normal to respond to the part that's directed at you. It's not like I can change the original post. Much ado about nothin', newzie.

Siblings should not be 'forced' to raise children like they are the parents.

Yeah, you missed the whole point of twisting other's opinion to fit into how you think they feel. Again, what you "think" is our opinion isn't. And I will not debate you on this subject because you refuse, absolutely refuse, to see it any other way.

I have to agree. It's interaction with various people in life that help you to broaden your horizons and grow as a person. Not using baby sitting services or others, various teachers and teaching perspectives, etc. isn't making good use of what resources are available.
I encourage the various opinions and not those who want to interpret another's views as jealousy or envy or even 'haters'.
I for one am not envious of the money these people make on their shows. It's the networks who pay them.
Like I originally wrote, from the KARDASHIANS to the Bates/Duggars, it all in how we view 'family'. There are wide differences.

I'm always baffled by the criticism of this family. They're charitable, friendly, talented, great role models for young people, not taking your tax dollars and well-traveled. The world would be better with more people like the Duggars.
