Freaky Fundies

To me this looks like a mom, dad, their 16 year old daughter, and 15 year old son

i fully support this and hope it’s true

I also fully support this. I really miss seeing Lauren on social media. She comes across very genuine to me.

is it really that hard to believe anna is simultaneously a victim of her upbringing while also blameworthy in this current situation? she was taught that the woman is always at fault if her husband strays but after the first scandal in 2015 she lost most of my sympathy because she was knowingly putting her children at risk.

And don't argue that she didn't have a support system if she left. Her older brother publicly said that he would have supported her leaving Josh and she also has sisters who defected from IBLP.

It’s such a hard situation. I do think the one thing we can blame her for is not leaving, even though I’m aware of how hard that would be. I think a really good mother would get her children out of that environment no matter how hard it was, but I guess I can’t entirely hate on Anna cause she’s just doing what she has been brainwashed into doing and that’s sticking by her husband (who her cult basically sees as an extension of God) no matter what. I also wonder if she realized how much danger her children were in by her staying. The first scandal was about his “youthful behaviour” (🤮 I don’t support this way of categorizing his behaviour but I’m just quoting the family) and his cheating behaviour, so she may have seen the CSA stuff as a “thing of the past” and therefore, her children were fine. Right now for me, she’s kind of in this grey spot - I can’t fully hate on her but she also doesn’t have my sympathy. If she stays after this, I will absolutely think that she’s delusional and an unfit mother tbh. I understand it’s hard to leave abusive relationships but your children come first and like you said, she does have a way out.

I think that sums me up pretty well too. I feel so conflicted about Anna. I don't know why. It's such a sad situation all around.

I also personally am conflicted, but ultimately I believe that when you have children you are completely and inexcusably responsible for their wellbeing, no matter how difficult it is for you to do what’s right for them. In my mind, it’s not about how hard it is for Anna to leave or not, and it’s not about being brainwashed—it’s about her failing to put her children first and continuing to endanger them. Anna most definitely knows sexual abuse is wrong. She chose to ignore it.

I wonder where they went to have the ultrasound done, a hospital/clinic or like an independent sonogram place... also wondering if they had to wear masks, because obviously healthcare settings require them.

Does anyone else think Jinger and Jeremy are intentionally hiding the faces of their children? For privacy or something? I don’t keep up with their social media much, but neither one has posted a picture of Felicity or Evangeline’s faces on Instagram in many months.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day, everyone.

He looks so so so young. She does too but not as bad as him!

This is literally embarrassing

The fake tropical background. The awkward kiss. The thumbs up. The pregnancy test drawing that looks more like a tampon. The exclamation points that look more like question marks.... I digress.
