They both seem to be popular retreats. Although I guess I can kind of see why. A bunch of homeschooled SAHDs are probably always looking for an excuse to get away from their home for a few days and hang out with friends. The numbers for the manly retreat is smaller, but I’m guessing that’s because the young fundie males have work schedules they have to deal with. Otherwise more might attend. 

The retreats should be held at neighboring boys and girls camps.  The subversive fundie boys and girls can sneak out and do a little late-night before-marriage side-hugging!

Liz posted this on Instagram. It’s a birthday chart. That’s a lot of July birthdays. I’m guessing at least one of the secret Bontrager Bowers babies was born in July. I can’t read them unfortunately. Maybe someone else can. ETA: the heart shapes are probably anniversaries.

ETA AGAIN: Nevermind. 🙄 It’s an old pic since Brynleigh’s bday and Gemma’s birthday are not on it. So the secret babies wouldn’t be on it either.

MUCH better than Honey. H theme confirmed then?

....They returned kids?

There is a Campbell/Allison adoption saga where rumor is they sent some kids away because they were too hard to handle.  It was years ago.  Im not sure if they sent them back to their home country or to friends.  
as a sibling to had to place adoptive sibling and several with attachment disorder, it angers me that they just pass them on instead of fighting for them.  My parents fought for my siblings, paid $$$$$ to get treatment for them and the siblings still left home at 18 (or were in juvenile for choices), but my parents fought.  So to know that there are families like the Campbell and Allison’s and their friends who view adoptive kids as people who can just be based on in is infuriating.

googling brings up the stories

I know a Tadhg. It’s pronounced like Tie-g.
