Continued from here: Elaborate proposal, both of the couple happy, and an expected short engagement. What more can we ask of a Duggar? It's better than most.

They look excited. She has a nursing license. She might wear pants. Timeline may be being fudged. It's ridiculous for the Duggars to set rules on a 28 YEAR OLD MAN. So it's pretty much your average Duggar courtship! I googled "rapture jokes", but evidently the Rapture is SUPER SERIAL and not a thing to joke about. Whatever, it's not the end of the world. (that was the best joke I found, and I am SO SORRY) Continued from:

The day has come! JD is courting! https://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-news/news/counting-on-star-john-david-duggar-is-courting-abbie-grace-burnett/ I know the Burnetts are followed by FJ but don’t know much about them.. does any one know how many sibling there are and stuff about them? The article says Abbie is 26 I super happy for JD honestly!

www.thehollywoodgossip.com/2017/08/john-david-duggar-involved-in-a-secret-courtship-exclusive/ Rumour has it that he's spending lots of time in Texas. Which fundie families are we aware of who live there? Please no speculation re: Jana's sexual orientation as per forum rules. There is already a separate thread discussing her future.

May your year give you some form of freedom and hope for escape

Part 1: viewtopic.php?f=87&t=23078

With Jimbob and Michelle trying very hard to through the local police under the bus, and throwing accusations of conspiracy against them and all that is holy, I really wonder where JD stands with all of this. I realize he is not a real cop, but I would think as constable that he has likely interacted with the local law enforcement and might have even had some very basic training with them. I am very curious to know what his take is on all of this, and if his interactions with the outside world have in anyway undone some of the brainwashing. JD seems dull as dirt, but yet, out of all the older ones, he seems to be the only one with any kind of work ethic (Sorry, i should include Jana, jinger and Joy who likely do all of the housework and childcare). He must have more access to outside influences and if he is living away from the house, as many suspect, he could be watching tv, reading secular newspapers and magazines, etc. Perhaps we have underestimated JD. I also have never gotten the impression that JD was close to Josh, despite being the two oldest boys. And on more than one occasion, you can see in JD's facial expressions that he thinks the dog and pony show is idiotic. Watch his face when Sierra demands they paint 200 flamingos, or his annoyance at JB when doing the ride along, or just his absence from many shows in general. I also suspect that Joseph doesn't live at home much anymore either when he is not in school. Either he bunks in the 'guesthouse' or he bunks at JD's house.

Hi y'all, Longtime reader, new poster. If you were to play matchmaker, what are some of your favorite potential courtships? I want to see: Jana and Tim Tebow Jinger and Skylar Weiss Joy Anna and Lawson Bates Or, Jana with Skylar and Jinger with Lawson, but ... I just really want Jana with Tim, even if unrealistic (or is it!?). I think she deserves to "win" the "best" husband. Besides, the ages work better this way, since I'm pretty sure Skylar is only 23ish. Plus, I think Joy Anna and Lawson would actually be a super cute match. John David is a stumper for me. I'd love to see Jana, Jinger, and Joy Anna married soon, for their sake, and to see what the family dynamics would be like re: Michelle managing. With Joseph at college, Josiah likely getting married, and John David essentially doing his own thing, it'd leave her with 6 teenage/pre-teen boys and 4 girls/little girls. Still quite the handful, especially when juggling relationships with adult children and grandchildren.

A few discussions in other threads have sparked some questions for me (and if it seems like this discussion is too tightly linked to another thread, feel free to merge). What is the deal with Jana and John David? This first set of twins appear to be some of the quietest in the family, and obviously their love lives (or lack thereof) have been the topic of much discussion. What are your theories? Personally, I'm leaning toward a combination of naturally shy personalities mixed with early and ferocious "training" in the way of Gothard. With their advancing age (by fundie standards), they are already naturally limiting the size of their families, without having to indulge in "sinful" birth control. I suspect this is due to the extreme conditions of their childhood. Michelle's three course rice meals may have sounded funny to some, but I bet her children were anxious and food insecure (see also: Josh's ever-increasing waistline). Jana sticking around the TTH has the added benefit of ensuring that some younger siblings are still cared for, despite Michelle's lunacy. Gotta be honest, though -- the longer she waits around, the more frightened I'd imagine she'd be of her wedding night. Zero to sixty (sexty?) is quite the accelerated learning curve -- I'd be terrified if it were me, to be honest. John-David can also ensure that his siblings are doing at least okay, if not well. [Don't know the details, but wasn't there also a hard working Bates son who served as a kind of lending center for his siblings? Could be wrong, but JD strikes me as a similar sturdy, reliable figure, if not the most mature amongst men.] I'd really love to hear your favorite theories about the twins.

I attempted a search for this but got so many hits I couldn't find any particular threads that addressed it but if this is like, the third thread on it, I apologize in advance for making yet another one. Merge or delete. I've looked into this before and I found where JD is a Washington County constable, which is an elected, unpaid position. So it's not a full-time job, I don't know how it works, if he has regular shifts, how many hours a week or month it takes up. Earlier today I caught part of the re-run where JB rides with JD. JB said JD is Tontitown police. Tontitown does indeed have a police department but I was unable to find anything with the names of police officers. For comparison, I also tried to find the names of police officers for my town and ran into the same roadblock. It must be a safety issue? Maybe it's better to not publicize the names of the officers on your police force. There was some kind of scandal with police chief in Tontitown a few years ago, 2012. Didn't see Duggar in any of those articles. So could JD actually be a real cop on the Tontitown police force or is that JB showing his ignorance of what his son actually does. I wonder if JB believes, in his own mind, that Duggar dabbles at things makes them that thing.

Is it just me or was Homer Simpson filling in for JB on the police ride along with JD? The way he was eating chips and donuts, mmmmm donuts..... And is it just me or did JD seem disgusted with JB in general...like he tolerates his dad because well he is his dad...

Don't know if it's posted yet, but just read that today is Jana and John David 25th birthday. Wonder how they're celebrating.

At least Jed doesn't look gangsta like JD. http://www.msn.com/en-us/tv/celebrity/y ... ar-BBhATs7

http://okmagazine.com/get-scoop/john-da ... next-kids/ This may have been discussed before because the pictures are dated months ago, the most recent being 5 months ago. She's pretty. There are pics from her IG.

http://www.theepochtimes.com/n3/1078993 ... ried-soon/ A few thoughts why no mention of Jana being single, is she in a courtship or have we forgotten she exists? Also what would be on a marriage application anyway especially to a Duggar?

On Duggar Family Official on Facebook, they posted a pic of them campaigning..... Is the plane bob got JD big enough to fly them around? Crazy stuff

Have we talked about this already!? (If so, I'm sorry, please delete. I didn't find anything) "What happens when your 20 something year old son has a flying hobby? You buy him a plane worth a little less than half a million dollars. It's "owned" by Duggar Aviation LLC so I'm guessing either hey expect to have a fleet or else the plane was put in it's own LLC so that Jim Bob doesn't lose everything when/if John David kills himself and others." all found on the hilarious fakejoshduggar instagram
