A crazy family from Arkansas has announced the birth of their 18th child.In a statement, the father said that the birth of Jordyn-Grace Makiya Duggar was 'The ultimate Christmas gift from God.'
Jim Bob Duggar is 43, a year older than his wife. Their oldest child, Joshua, is 20.
The other Duggar children, in between Joshua and Jordyn-Grace, are Jana, 18; John-David, 18; Jill, 17; Jessa, 16; Jinger, 14; Joseph, 13; Josiah, 12; Joy-Anna, 11; Jeremiah, 9; Jedidiah, 9; Jason, 8; James, 7; Justin, 6; Jackson, 4; Johannah, 3; and Jennifer, 1.
In an attempt to cash in on their stupidity, the family have been working on a reality show on TLC called '17 kids and counting...'
*** UPDATE *** 12/21/11
It's been a while since I wrote this post. In recent weeks Mrs. Duggar, ignoring her advancing years and her doctor's advice, got pregnant again with her 20th child. She miscarried the baby four months early, and her family held a funeral service which included taking photographs of the premature baby corpse which was then leaked to the media via a family member.
While I hate to write something negative about a family after such an unfortunate incident, it has to be said that the Duggars are behaving despicably at this point. Creating a media circus over a miscarriage is pretty sick, as is the action of parading dead baby pictures in front of their children. And exploiting this mentally ill family for their perverse baby experiment is equally disgusting.
It's about time someone staged an intervention before Mrs. Duggar kills herself and wrecks the lives of the 19 children she has brought into this world. Then again, with parents as stupid and irresponsible as this, maybe the children would be better off with a different role model.
