CellyBlue’s review of Netflix “Shiny Happy People” The Duggar Family Secrets-
Oh My God-WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?
#Netflix “Shiny Happy People” The Duggar Family Secrets. Is scary. The smiles make you cringe. Michelle Duggars voice reminds me of the fake mom from the movie “Coraline” while Jim Bob is dad who plays that creepy piano.
Or Katie Britt doing her own version of the SOTU Rebuttal. Very Scary!
As I am watching this documentary I’m thinking. What the hell is this. This is filth. This disgusting. This Institute of Basic Life Principles seems to be a little wayyyy off. Not a little, a lot. Is this what happens in these so-called godly places. Young women being selected to marry and become baby making machines, while the babys become the babysitters of the mommas babies. And where are the men. I don’t know really couldn’t tell.
If you watch this Netflix show though you might realize why the Governor of Arkansas (Sarah Sanders) changed the child labor laws. They putting these kids to work. I am talking long hours. No pay, not even minimum wage.
In an episode of the documentary a Duggar cousin talked about the corporal punishment that the Duggar parents used to “train” their children. The IBLP parenting philosophy used the book “To Train Up A Child” by Michael and Debi Pearl. Mama Duggar outwardly practiced “blanket training,” which involves placing a baby or toddler on a blanket and a tempting item out of reach, such as their favorite toy or pacifier. The child is instructed to remain on the blanket and is physically reprimanded (which means the child is hit), when they move off the blanket to retrieve the item. Within the religion, it is thought that by practicing this type of punishment, the parent is “breaking” their child’s “rebellious spirit.”
The cousin also revealed that she had seen her cousins being beaten with a rod as a punishment under the guise of “encouragement.” She says, “They literally said, ‘You need to come into the room and we need to give you some encouragement,’ in reference to the Duggar parents. “But it was in the sweetest tone ever, like, ‘Do you need encouragement? I think you need encouragement.” I mean they might call it encouragement but the Deparment of Children Protection Services would call it child abuse.
Then there are the allegations of abuse by the founder of this cult. The orginal leader and founder Bill gothard had to step down due to allegations of sexual abuse. (Yep as soon as I saw his picture and that hair I said Creep factor). The child abuse. The domestic violence. The sexism. The brainwashing. There’s a cult lurking in a fundamentalist Christian sect down in Arkansas. And it ain’t christ like. Cults are real. And in the mist of this cult is child abuse, spousal abuse, sexual abuse, pediphiles and perverts and ENCOURAGEMENT.
"Shiny Happy People" makes the case that Josh Duggar's abuse was not an isolated event. By detailing how the Duggars grew up in a cult led by an accused sexual abuser who taught women and children to be unwaveringly obedient and submissive, the series presents Josh's abuse as less of a shock and more of a terrible inevitability. - USAToday
Good old Jim Bob Duggar and his lovely soft speaking wife Michelle have made excuse, after excuse, as they refused to acknowledge the issues of their son the now convicted child sex predator Josh Duggar. Is IBLP a cult/
Alex Harris, a lawyer who grew up in the Christian homeschooling movement and had IBLP peers, says the teachings of Gothard and the IBLP have led to the newer iteration of the Joshua Generation, a political Christian youth group that emulates its fundamentalist teachings. “The whole purpose was really to position the best and the brightest of the Christian homeschool movement to assume positions of power and influence in the government and the law,” he says in the documentary. Former Congressman Madison Cawthorn, who served one term representing North Carolina, has been linked to the group.
Question? If not a cult. What is IBLP.
Answer-It ain’t Christian. But Whatever it’s is, keep your children away. Especially your daughters.
CellyBlue - I Do know This!
I couldn’t watch it. Saw one episode of that shit show and red flags were all there. The parents needing to know what their daughter’s sexual thoughts and relations with their husbands smacks you right in the face. The abuse these weirdos inflicted will last generations. I could tell that something was off from the beginning… the abusers (mom and dad) then monetized their pedophilia. Sick sick sick
