42. Wow. Thank you for sharing your story and your insight.

I did not grow up in an iceberg family, but something about the Duggars, their associations, and how they've handled this revelation told me that it wasn't a small blip and we're only seeing the tip of the dysfunction.

The biggest red flag for me - Josh Duggar was exhibiting learned behavior, as you've pointed out. And the Duggar dad confided in his friend, the cop, who did NOT file a report, and is now in jail for child pornography.

I watched a few minutes of the Fox interview, and was horrified by Michelle Duggar's phoney cry face and baby talk about her 'poor' son, it was sickening.

I am happy that you found a way out of your past and the pain and have gone on to live the life you deserve.

I wish the same for the Duggar children, and all others who are raised in abusive families.
