large familes; specifically the Duggars

I don’t pretend to know everything but I do try to keep my ignorant comments to a minimum. Before people start insulting someone for any reason they should have the facts.
I have read so many negative comments about the Duggars and I find them all completely ridiculous. Who could find fault with people simply because they have a lot of kids? People have no other basis for their rude comments. So now I am going to rant about some specific comments that have bugged me the most…
Probably the most annoying is the comments about how the Duggar’s are probably on welfare and are taking money from people who could benefit from it more or need it more. The Duggar’s are not on welfare, and are not even in debt actually. They are licensed real estate agents, and according to their show have some rental properties that contribute to their income and the father/husband is or was a politician. Plus I am pretty sure they receive some kind of payment for doing their show, which people have said negative things about but how is them getting paid to do their show any worse then actors being paid to star in TV and movies, or a magazine paying millions of dollars for rights to a star’s baby’s first photos. They are financially supporting their kids in a legitimate way. How is that NOT a good thing?
The second most irritating comment would be the ones that say the Duggar’s should be adopting if they want more kids. While I am all for adoption for people who want kids and can’t have them, or anyone who just prefers adoption, people have a right to have their own kids if they’re capable and there is nothing wrong with that. It is not the Duggars’ fault that other people didn’t want their biological children and it is not their responsibility to take in otherwise unwanted children. Why are we putting down people who are taking care of their family for not adopting and taking care of someone else’s child? Maybe “someone else” should stop having kids they don’t want (and I mean stop getting pregnant in the first place, NOT aborting) and this wouldn’t even be an issue.
Then somewhat relative to this is all the “they’re damaging the planet” comments. Absurd. One family having a large amount of kids is not damaging the planet. A lot of families having large families is NOT what is damaging the planet. They buy things used and use hand me downs, which is one step further then some people go towards conserving our planet. What is really the difference between one family with 18 kids and eighteen families with one kid each? People are whining about over population like large families are solely responsible for that. Once again though, if people who didn’t intend to keep their children and take care of them stopped having children (by preventing pregnancy, NOT by aborting) that would prevent a lot of “over population“. But instead of supporting abstinence and pregnancy prevention for people not ready to take care of their children it is a lot easier to just criticize a large family I guess.
Lastly on my list is the people who complain about the way the Duggar’s are raising their kids. For anyone who has not seen their show the oldest son was just recently married. His wife was the first person he ever kissed or had sex with, and neither happened until they were married. You can say what you want but that is definitely something to be proud of. I’m not saying their children are perfect because obviously, no one is; but to raise a child (or children, actually) with decent morals like that means the parents are doing something right. Aren’t we all [with kids] striving to raise our kids to be decent responsible adults, and not sexually active, drug using teenage degenerates…? So far the Duggars have achieved that, so why are people insulting them for that?
People should stop focusing their negativity on such trivial close minded complaints and put their time and energy towards something more productive and positive.
