Here's what I wonder about the Duggars

With that many kids, odds are at least one of them is going to be gay. I wonder how the the rest of the family will react.

LOL!!!

I think that they are insanely lucky that they have NO special needs children in those 18.

every once in a while this study pops up about just that, usually in a large family of boys.

interestingly, my husband is one of eight boys and two are gay.

I'm guessing there will be a lot of praying.

Me too. I feel like I'm "pushing my luck" having three. I've been more worried this pregnancy than either of my others because I feel like the odds are against us now. 

(I really hope that doesn't sound bad)

I agree. I bet that a couple of them may have ADD or ADHD or learning disorders, but without them going to school, those kinds of problems will be harder to diagnose. I do find it weird that none of them even wear glasses or seem to have even minor health issues.

Haha, true.

Here's what I wonder....I wonder what Michelle looks like naked.  I mean, I know what I look like naked after having two kids.  I bet it's a nightmare!  Why does the song, "Do your boobs hang low?  Do they wobble to and fro'?  Can yo tie 'em in a knot?  Can you tie 'em in a bow?" play in my head when I think about her and her pride?

My dad is one of 11 kids and none of them ever had any issues.  I think some families are just from healthy stock as they say.

No, actually odds are two of them are gay.

I think Michelle looks awesome (haircut aside) for a woman who is almost 43 and has had 18 kids.

I agree.  She may have a road map of stretch marks but in general she looks like damn good considering what her body has been put through.

They are so sheltered, they probably don't know what gay is.

Nah, the Bible talks about it. I'm sure they know what gay is -- at least the older ones. I doubt they know anyone who is gay though.

My dad came from a family of 14 kids and none are gay.  I would certainly know by know since they are all in their 70's and beyond.  lol 

The Duggars are very fortunate they have no medical issues with their kids and it could be that we may never see what their adult futures will be since by then the show will be off the air.  I guess they just trust God to give them healthy children.

I know she had 1 (or more?) m/c before they started having babies.  I wonder if she's had others.  They seem to be perfectly spaced 2yrs apart.  you'd think, in 21yrs, she'd have had a loss somewhere (not that I WANT her to m/c, it just seems like insanely good luck).
