Re: the end of the Duggar empire, I could see the 2 recently married daughters doing spin-offs, if only for financial reasons. Neither husband has a degree or trade that I know of, and they both have new babies. ETA: It's Jill and Jessa; Jill just had a baby, and Jessa is currently pregnant.

BBM I remember seeing an episode where Michelle mentions how happy she was to have mostly girls at first, to help her care for all the later children. ETA: spelling

BBM He also thinks Jim-Bob and Michelle acted appropriately once they learned of the abuse: from seewalds.com: "...I believe that Josh’s parents acted in a way that godly parents should. They did not turn a blind eye, but earnestly sought help from the church, counselors, and eventually...
