Do you have a link stating his parents and sisters knew...because I seriously doubt they did.
I didn't watch, didn't want to watch, and no one can make me!!!!
Seriously, why don't these folks just go live their lives and stay off TV?

Looks like baby Israel may be getting "disciplined" already.
He is just a BABY; fgs !!
Why isn't CPS looking into this--- he should not be having a black eye at all.
The comment below in this link by a VL is telling ; imo.
"Blanket Training" is very abusive, a baby needs to be able to explore.
And, there's no "war" against this family ; imo --- they've put themselves out there.
No one forced them to post public photos of their everyday life , down to the last molecule.
I've tried to stay away from this family's strange behavior... but the photo of little Israel's bruised eye is troublesome.

:moo:
"I never supported anything that happened to those daughters. I supported the fact that those daughters were maliciously and savagely abused not just by their brother, but by the news media who exploited them for their own purpose without regard for what it was doing to those young ladies."
Huckabee still stands by the Duggars, not a surprise. What I did find surprising was the following:

He seems to be deviating significantly from the official party line, which has been that all that occurred was a little exploratory touch, outside of clothing, that the girls didn't even know it had happened until they were told by their parents, and anyway, they are all over it now.
For him to say (by way of defending his ongoing relationship with the parents and support of their actions) that this was malicious and savage abuse really calls into question the tepid response of the parents. And of course, his claim that Josh repented and changed his ways came before the most recent revelations.
I can appreciate his empathy for the family--not an easy road for any parent to trod, nor for any child to have experienced. However empathy ought not lead to complicity with denial.
SMDH. What on earth did these parents tell themselves that justifies doing that to a 9-month old? And to post it on SM? If I did that CPS would be on me in a flash but these people get a tv show. I have no respect for any of the Duggars. Maybe CPS should visit the TLC producers too. :furious:
And speaking of abuse, if Michelle and Jimbo are allowed to adopt a baby I think my head will explode.
Duggars - go away!
EXCLUSIVE: The Duggar Family Spotted Filming Again, 'People in Town Are Angry,' Source Says
http://www.etonline.com/news/182538_the_duggars_coming_back_to_tv/
Another source exclusively tells ET that the family is still under contract with TLC, though some family members' contracts are up in March. The source says the network definitely still has interest in the controversial family, specifically in the Duggar girls' stories.
"I'm sure there will be more girls courting soon," the source says.
You know what pisses me off even more than the Duggar's themselves? TLC. They are knowingly paying people who have enabled and protected a pedophile. Disgusting.
