Despite their public show of solidarity, TLC's 19 Kids and Counting, Duggar Family have reportedly all but turned their backs on son, Josh, after his molestation scandal ostensibly ruined the clans' pious reputation forever more. According to the latest gossip news updates, his parents, Jim Bob and Michelle, along with a couple dozen family member's helped Josh in his move to Maryland to work for the Family Research Council, but decided to let him handle things all alone upon recently losing that job and moving back home. Word has it that Josh's dad isn't too thrilled about giving him a job at one of the family business either -- noting that a well-known child molester is hardly a suitable poster boy for any growing enterprise.
His family members might have been recently taking turns falling on swords to try to protect Josh Duggar's integrity and by proxy the entertainment viability of their TLC cash cow, 19 Kids & Counting, but now that it seems like the series is doomed to an afterlife of eternal cancellation the clan seems to be rethinking their opinion of the handsy kinsmen.
One source claiming to have the inside scoop notes in the June 29, issue of Star magazine , that when Josh Duggar first left Arkansas for a new job advising close minded bigots, just like his sex-crime covering family, there was hardly a Dugger in a 5,000 mile radius that didn't show up to lend a helping hand:
"When he and Anna, 256, moved there in 2013 with their three children from the Duggars' home state of Arkansas, they had the aid of 27 relatives and friends."
Thanks to his pretty much ruining the entire family's chances at spreading their message of hate for easy money on TLC, Josh's disgraced trip back home apparently had a lot less fanfare:
"He's ruined their main source of income, and they're furious.
"[His wife] Anna is due to give birth to their fourth child in less than a month, and she need helping hands move than ever...but the family abandoned them, all saying they were too busy."
Although, Josh and his family may have been left a little high and dry on their return trip home to Arkansas, it's apparent from the post celebrating his son Michael's birthday on the Duggar Family's official Facebook page that Jim Bob and Michelle definitely aren't ostracizing their prodigal son the way they expect a God-fearing society to do to homosexuals:
This boy is 4 years old today! He is clever and he is kind. There was a time we could not imagine anything as amazing...

Let's hope that if anything this disgusting sex scandal will convince the Duggars' most indignant supports to not quite be so quick when it comes to condemning someone for all of eternity just because they don't agree with something they are doing with another consenting adult.
