[QUOTE="hillsdown, post: 876873, member: 5106"] This is from Wiki [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/19_Kids_and_Counting]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/19_Kids_and_Counting[/url] The Duggars are conservative Christians, and due to their fundamentalist biblical beliefs, they practice the following: The only television the family watches are wholesome family programming on DVDs, and various historical events.
