Mom With 14 Kids, One on the Way, Honored with state's Young Mother award.
 

I have so many questions and comments about this.

By CARYN ROUSSEAU, Associated Press hahahahahar

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. - With her 14 children in tow and pregnant with her 15th, Michelle Duggar waddled into Arkansas' Capitol on Wednesday to accept the state's Young Mother award.

"We're going from diapers right up to driver's ed," she said with a smile.

Duggar, 37, who home schools her children and is helping to build a new home from the ground up, started having her babies when she was 21, four years after she married former state Rep. Jim Bob Duggar.

"We're letting the Lord give us the gifts that he wants to give us and I'm open to more gifts," she said. "I'll take them one at a time or two at a time."

The offspring include two sets of twins, and the parents have stuck to the letter "J" when it comes picking names. There is Joshua, 16; Jana and John-David, 14; Jill, 12; Jessa, 11; Jinger, 10; Joseph, 9; Josiah, 7; Joy-Anna, 6; Jeremiah and Jedidiah, 5; Jason, 3; James, 2 and Justin, 1.

The new baby is due in two months and is most likely a boy. They plan to name him Jackson.

That child won't know the sometimes-crowded life his siblings now have in their small home with two bathrooms in Springdale.

"There's usually a pretty good line in front of each one of them," Jim Bob Duggar said.

For the past two years the family has been building their own home in Tontitown, just seven miles from where they now live in northwest Arkansas.

"Our house is like a giant Cracker Barrel," Michelle Duggar said. "It's got this huge porch it goes on forever. We may get lost in the middle of it all."

The 7,000-square-foot family project will have 10 bathrooms, master and guest bedrooms, a laundry room with four washers and eight dryers and two dormitory-style bedrooms, one for the boys and one for the girls. Those rooms will have bunk beds, Jim Bob Duggar said, easily added for any new children.

"We've done the work from the foundation up," he said. "We're building it debt- free. We're doing it as we can afford it."

There will be two closets on either side of the laundry, one with boys clothes and one with things for the girls. The children put on whatever clothing fits.

This weekend, Duggar, a real estate businessman, plans to put up the siding and hahahahahahas with some of his sons. They hope to move in this summer.

Wednesday, the brood drove down from Springdale in the family bus to watch mom receive her award from Gov. Mike Huckabee. The girls and their mother dressed in matching red and blue plaid jumpers. The boys each wore the same navy blue suit with a red bow tie, their hair neatly combed to the side.

When the family approached Huckabee, the governor bent down to shake each child's hand, repeating the names they shyly whispered to him.

"You guys are amazing. You really are," Huckabee told the family.

The clan is very close. During their father's failed U.S. Senate bid, six of the Duggars sang the official campaign theme song: "Won't You Please Vote For My Daddy."

The couple married when Jim Bob was 19 and Michelle was 17 and had no children for the first four years they were together.

"We were using birth-control pills," Jim Bob Duggar said. "Then we ended up giving this area of our life to God."

Duggar said the family stopped the birth control when it came to their understanding that the pills could cause a woman to miscarry.

"I've always left it up to her and she's always wanted more children," Jim Bob Duggar said. "I knew she was a mother of the year all along, but she really deserves wife of the year."

Praise the Lord.....
Alleluyah !!!!! :helpme

Sick fucks are everywhere........

Pathetic :helpme

Oh yeah, we should tell him about facials




i mean....:1orglaugh

See where she is from ? Little Rock Arkansas......they keep em barefoot and pregnant there:1orglaugh Praise the Lord:glugglug

Reward pffft.. they should TAX fuckers like this, like the world doesn't have too many people leeching its resources already...

This is my favorite quote:

"Duggar said the family stopped the birth control when it came to their understanding that the pills could cause a woman to miscarry. "

Taking birth control pills will cause Duggars wife to miscarrage. Why was she taking birth control pills when she was pregnant?

Sounds like the next Waco in 10 years.

:BangBang:

I guess she never thought of just giving head.....

Fucking idiot's !!

I'm based in the Philippines. Big family sizes are quite the norm in the rural areas of the Philippines. Typical family sizes range from 6 to 15. I'm sure its the same for many rural areas of other parts of the world because of the economics of this situation--the more children, the more helpers the parents have when it comes time to plant or harvest.

Unfortunately, this has the structural effect of miring the countryside in poverty.

Modern family planning definitely should focus more on QUALITY children as opposed to quantity. The higher the quanitity of kids, the less resources can be devoted to make sure they have a QUALITY childhood and education.

You know what? If they aren't on welfare, they can afford to feed their own kids, and they are being good parents, who the fuck cares of they have 1 kid or 100? There's no limit on the number of children a parent can be a good parent to, and it's pretty obvious they're happy. If they had that many kids and were living on the poverty line or welfare and just kept popping them out, I might take issue, if for nothing else than the children's quality of life being an issue.

Myself, I'd love to shake that woman's hand. I know how crazy it can get with 3, let alone 14! I bet she could give me some damn good advice.

I totally agree.

I'd have to trade my Rx for birthcontrol pills for a never-ending supply of Valium with that many children! I have 3 as well, and I thought that was a house full...

show of hands of who on this board fucked her

Better than 15 immigrants direct for Haiti.

I still think people that contribute to the global overpopulation problem in this way suck and should get their asses taxed off.

Birth rates in the West are below replacement level you idiot. Tell the fools in Africa who keep pumping out more AIDs infected babies, or the Muslims in the Middle-East whose strategy it seems is to outbreed anyone else. It is about time Western/European/White families started to atleast replace themselves. (keep in mind I don't even know what ethnicity this woman and man are)

Can't argue that...


The poor / uneducated always reproduce more, and younger, than the rich.

I like it when you call people names... you should do more of it.

Can someone say reverse evolution? I mean just look in Western societies alone. You have the most idiotic people having the most children. The smart business man with his educated wife may have 1 or 2 children, whilst the ghettotrash will have 10. Makes you think.

Fuck off cocksmoker :Graucho

I totally agree. As long as my tax dollars don't go to supporting someone with 14 kids, more power to them. If that many kids running around makes them happy, then good.

Cocksmoker???

what is that???

omg 15 kids! wow the strech marks she must have not to say anything about the headacks I have a hard time with three

jesus

You are aware that taking the wrong kind of birth control will be ineffective, right? And that birth control that might have been working one year, might not work the next. So unless a woman is seeing a doctor periodically to make sure she's on the right pill, she could be taking the wrong pill, fall pregnant, and not realise. Then of course, she'll be taking birth control while pregnant.

I agree with what someone else already said. If they can afford it, and they're not raping the government for welfare, then more power to 'em.

But goddamn, after that many kids, they must come out of that cooch as if it were a fun slide. Labour probably takes about 3 minutes. Bwahahahaha.

Please hahahahaha this 100 times:

"We really don't need more people on this planet."

:rasta

I'M GUNNA GO VISUT ONE OF MAH BABY'S MOMMAS TUDAY!



When there is an actual term called "Baby's momma" or "Baby's daddy" there is something wrong. No, this is not being racist, there are white people who say this, too.



How come you need a license to fly, drive, or pilot a boat, but there is none for having children?

That would be a great point if it were <a href="http://www.infoplease.com/ipa/A0004395.html">actually true</a>. While the net population increase is negative in a few Western countries, they're in the overwhelming minority.

The United States (you know, the country in which the woman in question <b>actually lives</b>) has a particularly high rate of population increase (5.7% in 2003).

37 with 14? dissam

I guess vasectomy is not in their vocabulary

I wonder...


With 14 kids, if 3 go off and become Doctors, 7 go off and live average lives, and 4 become criminals / druggies... are those acceptable losses?

My grandma had 10 kids! All 10 went to college (not community or state college but University), one (my uncle) even went to Harvard and is a doctor. None are criminals or druggies.

The only problem is that they do. Have you heard of earned income credit? its called you have so many dependants that you actually earn money when you file taxes at the end of the year. Its a joke and completly unfair that I as a non-parent have to pay X % to my federal taxes every year but they might even get paid more then they put in. :2 cents:

My Great-Grandmother was the oldest of 24 children, 3 sets of twins, and her Mother died from being thrown off a horse pregnant. They were rich and lived in Spain.

baby factories :warning

How many of you guys out there are looking for women like this?

:1orglaugh

I'm 25, I got 10 years before I start wanting cash sponges around

I am the second oldest of 10 kids. What do you think of that?

wtf...

wtf :helpme :helpme

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh thats hilarious

40 kids is her goal

the dad's name is jim bob? :1orglaugh

guess that's better than Joy-Anna or Jedidiah

holy shit now thats a lot of fuck trophies

That's a lot of kids! I wonder how her everyday life is like.

The longer you wait to start, the longer the kids stay with you, longer before retirement.

she is right on track:thumbsup

How about giving her the young dumb sluts award also


I bet she is supporting her kids with welfare too

OMFG, half of little rock will have the name Duggar in a few decades :)

yea.. and lets all forget the fact that if everyone had the mentality of you and the whore bearing children, the world would hit a population of 45 billion within 30 years

because we all know food and resources are ever so plentiful and sustainable for that kind of growth

:321GFY

If they can afford them and stand the fact that their whole lives are living for their children..more power to them.

It's the people that take the fertility drugs and have 8 babies at once then get on oprah to get all their expenses paid for all their kids for the next 18 years that make me sick....

the grocery bill must be outrageous:helpme
