A few things.
The police report contradicts the "girls didn't know what was happening to them until JB and Michelle told them" carp. At least one of the girls went to the "parents" (yes I used it like that because they are to me just the sperm and egg donors) and told on Josh, THEN Josh "came clean" to his "parents". One incident was in the laundry room. Better believe that child knew what he was doing to her as she was NOT asleep. Another incident was when a child was sitting on Josh's lap for him to "read a book to her". Again, that child knew what he was doing to her as she was NOT asleep. The "girls didn't know anything until we told them" is a big freaking lie made up by JB and Michelle to make it "not so bad".
In the Duggar religion, if one choses to look at their literature, it is always the victim's fault that she was molested. It is also at times the parents fault if they do not teach their daughters to be modest at all times. Boys can be "tempted" by changing the diaper of a sister. Let's let that one sink in a bit. A baby, in a diaper, is a temptation to a male that is changing their diaper. While Josh was "punished" by being sent to help build a house or some such BS, the girls were punished more harshly IMO. The girls were made to all share one room, with a lock on the door, to wear long pants under their skirts, to be responsible for their brothers lusting if they dressed or behaved "immodestly", did NOT get the help from respected drs that they desperately needed and were forced to "forgive" their brother even if they weren't ready to at that time. The girls have been raised to know that they are second class citizens while their brothers are the favored children. The girls are simply there to raise babies, do housework, do whatever their father (and then husband when they marry) says and to have LOTS of children. The girls were the ones responsible for keeping an eye out for worldly "immodestly" dressed women/girls and telling their brothers/father "Nike" so they would not look and be tempted. ALL of the pressure is on the girls. Not on the boys. If any of the children would have a dysfunctional life because of their upbringing, such as experimenting or having sexual issues, it seems to me that it would be the severely repressed girls and not the better than the other sex boys.
Josh knew what he was doing was wrong. Josh also knew that he would get away with it and he has for the most part. His "parents" covered for him even going to the extreme of not allowing him to be interviewed by police. Josh has not been forced to actually speak in public about what all he has done. His victims (two of them anyway) were forced to excuse him, talk highly of him, say that it wasn't a big deal, etc on national tv though. Once again, the son gets off easy while the girls get the short end of the stick. Josh makes me sick. JB and Michelle make me sick. I wish that ALL of the remaining children would be removed from their home and able to heal from the brainwashing their have endured since their birth. Anna needs to think about herself and her children, but she won't. She will stay with him and make excuses for him no matter what he does to her. And that is a shame. It's a shame that this cycle is going to continue all in the name of their "religion".
MOO
