For years, the Duggar family has been one of the most controversial families in America and my obsession and interest has only grown. This Tea Talk isn't a defense of abuse or criminal behavior...it's a conversation about faith, family, media narratives, large families, and why I think we've become increasingly uncomfortable with certain values. Please give this video a thumbs up to hype it up and show support if you like it!
