The title isn't really fair. Not all people suck. But a lot of people do.
A few weeks ago, Michelle Duggar announced that she was pregnant with her 20th child. The entire world became up in arms, as if they had a right to tell her what was allowed to come out of her body or not. Granted, these are the same people who are probably saying that the government doesn't have the right to say that a man and another man or a woman and another woman can't marry.
Basically, they are hypocrites. Its ok for them to tell others how to live their life, but if someone tells them how to live theirs? Oh HELL no. They will go off. They'll do meaningless sit ins, they'll write profanity laced words, they'll throw glitter at people. In a nut shell, they'll act like a bunch of 10 year olds who were told they can't have candy for dinner.
Frankly, I don't care how you live your life, provided it isn't hurting someone else? You want to be married to someone of the same sex? Go for it- by all means. I have my own religious beliefs on the matter, but that doesn't make me look down on you. If you're not hurting someone, and you're not breaking the law, then do what you need to do.
So anyways, back to Michelle Duggar. All these people came out of the wood works like little cockroaches, saying that she shouldn't be allowed to have any more kids, that she should just stop, she's being unreasonable and selfish. Yada. Yada. Yada. Never mind her 19 children are 19 of the most well behaved children on the planet. Never mind that she doesn't have a nanny. Never mind that she home schools all of these kids, or that they aren't on government assistance, or that they don't have a single ounce of debt. None of that matters. All that matters is what the public thinks- and the public thinks she should be done.
The public, in this sense, are a bunch of idiots. It isn't there business.
Today, there was some devastating news released that Michelle had a miscarriage in her 2nd trimester. They were at their doctor appointment, ready to find out the sex of the baby, when they couldn't find a heartbeat. Devastating is saying it mildly. I know, I've been there. It is one of the deepest pains imaginable, and unless you've been through it first hand, you have absolutely NO idea.
My issue with all of this is the public's reaction to the news. If you scroll down on Yahoo's story, you'll see the disgusting comments of what I can only describe as some God-lacking Trolls. People who are taking this, and spinning it to make the Duggars the bad people. They're saying things like "Oh, this is God's way of saying enough!" or "you shouldn't of been so greedy".
Idiots. Seriously.
Do you know how many people have miscarriages? TONS of people have miscarriages with their 1st pregnancy. Was that God's way of telling people they shouldn't be parents? I had two miscarriages in between Madison and Mason. Was that God telling me I should've quit? No. Stuff happens. Michelle is over 35, which means that chromosome abnormalities are more likely to happen. The majority of miscarriages come from a chromosome abnormality, or some sort of mutation that wouldn't allow the child to survive after birth, if at all.
Who are these people, who sit here and claim to know God's will? Yes, I get that the Duggars are public figures, but that does NOT mean common decency and respect goes out the window. That does NOT mean that people are allowed to be cruel and vicious just for giggles.
Sadly, the world will be lucky if these Internet trolls can raise one child with half as much grace and dignity as the Duggars have.
People make me sick. I dare someone to have an argument with me about God's will and losing babies. It doesn't even matter if I support the Duggars or not (which I do, but that's neither here nor there). Even if I despised them with a passion, I would still go to bat with anyone over this issue.
NO one knows God's will. NO one knows why things like this happen. To even say that, even as a joke. Despicable.
