The Duggar family has been taken off of the TLC schedule due to the incidents 12 years ago regarding Josh Duggar. There are far many other shows on television that out right condone lewd behavior and inappropriate acts. This family deals with actual life problems and try to raise their children to the best of their ability. Mistakes are made, things happen, especially with children, that is how we learn. Let's not let a CHILD'S mistake many years ago, which has already been handled, keep this family from sharing their messages of overcoming such trials and actually doing good in the world.

I have been reading through the different perspectives left in the comments section regarding the impact this family had on viewers. It is clear that many people value the message of perseverance they offered throughout their time on television. My focus remains on advocating for the return of programming that emphasizes redemption and family growth.

May 23, 2015

Seeing this perspective gain traction reminds me that many people still value the messages of redemption this family shared over the years. It is heartening to realize that so many others believe the past does not have to define or silence a family indefinitely.

Please bring back the 19 Kids an counting....I don't watch much tv but I was always watching the Duggars . They have helped me so much with getting back on track with my walk in Christ they are very inspirational. Their show is a much needed show to stay on the air! TLC I feel that some of the shows you have had on are awful an I turn your channel off like the medium and now your going to be showing all about jazz a transgender child television has been going to pot for years...The Duggars were and are a breath of fresh air. Please bring them back!!!

Please bring the Duggars back. So many people benefit from their positive examples. Even the way they dealt with the situation was a positive alternative to how to help a child strugling with similar issues.

Josh was only a kid himself when he did this, the media is making more out of this and the family dealt with it the best way they knew how . why dredge stuff up now and make them have to relive it again. this should not affect the show being on the air. with all the awful shows I see on TLC the Duggars should be the least of their worries, I think it is awful that they let a show on about young guys in relationships with old grannies. now that is something to complain about.

Removing the Duggars from tv only punishes the innocent victims again. Allow the victims to speak for themselves and decide how they want to move forward.

No excuse for Josh's action, however, why punish the rest of the family and especially the sisters who were victims. Stop filming Josh but please don't drop 19 Kids and Counting.
