Arkansas Family Welcomes 17th CHILD

The coolest thing about this family is that they are DEBT free. Granted they are making dough from the shows and the interviews but I believe even without that they would be debt free because of how they live their life. There is a lesson to be learned. If they can do it with 19 folks in one house...

I agree. I am really impressed with the fact that they are doing it all themselves and depending on one another. Although this family has received a LOT of criticism, most devout Christian families believe in living a simple debt free lifestyle and are able to maintain a good quality of life.

That's right. The Duggars are debt free and are financially sound. They have money, and know how to make it work for them, I say good for them. They can have as many children as they want to and can provide for each and every one of them.

They have a system set up that works for them and I not lying, my husband and I are going to use a tip or two from them as far as how they schedule their lives. Each child has a age appropriate chore and it's teaching them how to be responsible. So I say if they like it, then I love it.

she probably had a secret passageway built into their bedroom where they could sneak out and nobody see them leaving. and my goodness, when do you have TIME to have sex...theres no way at any given moment at least one of the kids is awake!

yes they are debt free. It's too bad that they are also insane. Those poor kids.

^^Phew! When I saw that it'd been bumped again, I got scared that baby #18 was here.

Can I donate a hairdresser to cut the hair of all of the women in the family? I'm sure Wigs for Kids could make better use of it.

I'm sorry. That hair style on all of those girls is as rediculous as mom having 18 kids.

I said it, I'm snarky, so there!
