      I think she's a quiet introvert who never wanted the limelight and had the misfortune to be partnered up by her Dad with someone on TV. I think Dad saw the money more than he looked at the match between the two. Although I know they get blasted as a mismatch they do say opposites attract and I do wonder whether Josiah feels able to relax around her and she feels like he brings her out of herself a bit. I get the impression in these families that you get your "role" and then that's who you are or are expected to be all the time. Girls are expected to 'keep sweet" and men must always be 'manly' and Josiah is the 'always extrovert/Joker', but I think that the loss they experienced showed he has a sensitive side in there. He looks like a really sweet father who does want to look after Lauren.

    People need to stop this mess... Blame who needs to be blamed and ONLY THEM... Most of these kids have said they want justice and have moved away or stayed away from their parents to make their lives better... What more do people want from them? Blaming these kids is "victim blaming" because I'm one way or another, they're victims of this cult lifestyle and brainwashed... Their trying to break free and need our support... Pray for them, don't blame or shame them...

      You are certainly right! The reason so many still are having problems with this, I think, is because they were all raised in this cult. And yes, also many children have broken away or still are but some have not. No one should be doing this to Lauren for sure! She married into this mess!! There were obvious problems before this in this family and I think as a result of this and the fact this was a famous TV family, many want to blame them all. Also, we know JB did not get Josh help when it was truly needed leading many people to wonder what kind of wrong teaching etc these children grew up having to deal with. I get the questions but do not get mistreatment of any Duggar's who are not involved in this at this point. Poor Lauren! This is so wrong for anyone to treat her this way! She is smart to not want fame or to be in the spotlight! Way to go Lauren!! You are a smart woman!!

      Robyn. Shimer I completely agree with you they lived such sheltered lives and now that they are married and living their lives outside of the Cult they realize how much they missed out on when they were growing up. , They are realizing their parents are NUTS 🥜 and I think they want to give their children the childhood they never had. I think the trial is taking its toll on everyone, and they want to distance themselves from it because they are embarrassed enough as it is. Their father is also running for State Senate when all of this is going down with Josh which I think is not helping matters either.

Not speaking of all of them now, even though some would be included in that statement while other children in the family have grown up not only physically!

      They don't like her because she is truthful!! Sometimes that can create problems if you are covering up a lot. This family covered up so much while on TV. The Baptist group they belong to is not a good one. Trust me! I am Baptist and know very well the difference in the IBLP and Independent Baptist (no life principles) in the group I belong to. Many criticize all Baptists thinking they are all alike but that it not the case! Just like there are different Catholic churches, lutheran churches and groups, methodist churches and groups there are 3 or 4 Baptist ones. The IBLP is very much away from true Biblical truths. I am not sure being truthful is very important in the IBLP. They focus more on dress, no dances, no movies etc. We believe you can come to God for salvation. Yes, we believe in eternal security as they do but so many things are very ODD to the true Independent Baptist teaching. Truth is important to us but not so much to this cult. And no, Lauren does not fit in with Duggar's and neither do their children that are finding their own way with God's help. God is not the author of chaos or confusion so what does this tell us?? This family sounds like a confusing, chaotic mess!!

    A predator carefully picks and chooses his victims. Josh's victims aren't necessarily all female.
    Fact- A twisted CSA predator was left in a bedroom for almost 18 years, in the Duggar house, with several extremely young boys! Figure it out, boys and girls. The writing is all over the wall with this one.
    Josh had a virtual cornucopia of victims to chose from in his parents house.
    As the "oldest" son, he was also transferred a great deal of power and control over his younger siblings, especially his younger brothers!
    I hope someone in the Duggar family has finally found the strength to speak the truth and nail Josh to the wall! Expose the predator once and for all. Then, sue the heck out of the Duggar corporation.

    I love Josiah & Lauren and totally understand them turning off socials. Although I would love to hear more about their beautiful family.

    Love that top! Reminds me of the witchy grunge in the 90s. Very pretty.

    Maybe with learning more about peeves on the net they decided to take down all the personal pics

    I wonder why Lauren didn’t just delete her Instagram since they don’t post often anyway.

      Maybe she’s still on IG to look for inspiration and for following family and friends 🤷🏻‍♀️
