Traditionally (in the US at least) doesn't the groom or the groom's family pay for the honeymoon? Frankly I'd get bored at one of those giant Bahamian resorts too. Still, this doesn't bode well for their future that Haley got homesick after 8-9 days away--especially since they are supposed to spend a couple of months on a missioncation next.

I don’t know if that’s a tradition set in stone. Most couples pay for their own honeymoons nowadays. That’s why you are so many people asking people gift to the honeymoon fund instead of bringing a gift to the wedding. But she’s a teen and her parents are living in a million dollar plantation. So I’m guessing they paid for it.

I’m betting Haley’s parents paid for the honeymoon. Imagine getting married as a teenager and going on a honeymoon like that.

I hope she feels like she has a choice particularly in the area of procreation. Does she realize the likely reason she doesn’t want to leave the house might be d/t the fact that she has 5 kids, 8 and younger?

That was exactly my thought. I hated leaving the house with two young kids. All those car seats, car sickness, and the constant complaining. Along with remembering to pack diapers, wipes, and other crap babies need. I also hated to nurse in public. So I felt like I was on house arrest for a full year.

I’m super boring. My life is probably similar to Jessa’s. But I chose this life. I have the ability to go back to work if I wanted. Or take big trips. But I’m not interested. Sometimes I wonder if Jessa regrets her choice. Does Jessa feel like she has a choice?
