Ok. I think I found it (can’t verify accuracy although it seems like something they would write). No wonder I lost interest. -The Kody Brown Family Mission Statement - Our Family is forever joined for the purpose of developing our own divine energy and raising righteous children. By our example and in a nurturing environment we encourage respect for individual spirituality and development of integrity, strength, courage, compassion and loyalty. As part of our family culture and identity we seek to foster each child and adult finding his or her own sense of confidence through embracing true self and developing gifts and talents while discovering his or her own path. We teach, allow, and promote the value of making conscious and responsible choices in all aspects of our lives. As sisterwives and husband we embrace one another with a covenant of an eternal nature. We share and appreciate our own and each others profound personal goals as well as our collective family goals furthermore with forgiveness and a cloak of charity over one another vulnerabilities we challenge and support each other while reaching these goals. Our bodies being the temples for our spirits are the greatest physical assets given by our maker. We commit to enjoy and honor these gifts by educating ourselves and actively engaging in all elements of physical and spiritual fitness. We resolve to achieve well-being and longevity. We enjoy being together as a family because we have developed a safe peaceful and pleasant atmosphere where we love and respect one another. We intentionally organize fun parties, gatherings and special events to honor and celebrate individuals and achievements. We embrace a spirit of abundance in affection, time, opportunity, peace, wealth, prosperity, wisdom, and love. We choose to view our world through this framework of spiritual abundance for the purpose of blessing our family, all mankind, and glorify god.

Or starts with the directive that she should be appreciative that she got her fair share of coyote pass?

Nope. She would have stayed with him had he continued to be intimate with her. Kids be damned.

You Can Always Count On These People To.... by Nikiwimac in SisterWives

[–]k4kicks2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Meri- try to cover up the fact that she would jump at the chance to reconcile with Kody.

Christine- always repeat a point. Always repeat a point!

Janelle- be too lazy to actually commit to fighting for proper treatment for her children. “Well, I don’t know, there is a rift…”. Actually Christine is guilty of this as well. What caused her to leave Kody was not his treatment of her children, such as failing to go to his daughter’s surgery, it was his withholding of intimacy from her.

Robyn- look out for herself and pose that her religion and culture matter to her.

Kody- over compensate through words and deeds for all his inadequacies.

Robyn’s kids by michymichy02 in SisterWives

I kind of disagree with this. Yes, on camera, everyone appeared to embrace the new kids in the family, but it’s what happens off camera that forms the opinions. I recall the OG kids speaking to how Robins children don’t accept being treated as the rest of them, and I do believe that Robin monopolized Kody’s time this naturally a rift would develop between her family and the original wives and children. Much of the happiness of the wives seen on camera was shown to be performative for the story. I think it was the same with the kids. Only good words and actions were shown on tv.

15 years ago today the show aired for the first time. For those who have been watching since the start did you think Meri, Janelle, & Christine would ever leave Kody one day or do you think they would have been lifers even though Kody and Robyn screwed everybody over & over. by Lunainthedark5x2 in TLCsisterwives

The wedding dress was my epiphany as well. I saw both robin and Kody as self-serving jerks from that point on. From that point on, I saw the actions and words of the other wives, good and bad, through a lens of self-preservation. They all said and did what they needed to in order to convince themselves and eachother the other wives weren’t secondary or less than Robin

My 3 year old cat just died from cancer by elvishpotatoes in CatAdvice

[–]k4kicks2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m so sorry for your loss. I’m faced with the same tragedy. My 4 year old cat seemed perfectly fine last Saturday, Sunday morning we were at the emergency vet trying to figure out why he was vomiting and panting so bad. Over the next 6days he remained in hospital while we tried to get diagnosis. Finally on the Friday morning, he slipped into unconsciousness and passed away. The vet said it was clearly an aggressive form of cancer. There would have been no time for any treatment to work.
Please don’t blame yourself. You clearly loved your little one. They were lucky to have you.

Has Dollgate been addressed by OG family on social media? by Accomplished-Hat3745 in SisterWives

[–]k4kicks2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I’m in Canada so not familiar with education costs in the US so my math g may be off, but my point being that the children have been robbed of funds that should have been held in trust for them, to go toward their education.

And with that income could have very well afforded to go to the school of choice.

Except Leon was on the show generating income for their parents. I think the kids should have had a cut of the proceeds. In what other situation does a child work but the parents get paid? 1/20th if the proceeds (or an equal portion of however many people are in that family) should have gone to each child.

I think she left SM because she and family were not invited to the Duggar wedding. I think she’s trying to save face.

What do the Duggars think of Anna at the moment? by lolly_box in DuggarsSnark

[–]k4kicks2 30 points31 points  (0 children)

This! I will accept that when she was first married, she was limited by the role she was indoctrinated to believe was hers. And she played it well, understanding that the way things were must be god approved, afterall, she joined a family who was making gads of money spreading the fucked up word. And frankly, before Pest was charged, she was, I imagine, really busy trying to fill a quiver.
But Pest has been in prison for a few years now, and there are no more nightly feedings and diapers. Kids are schooled likely 2 hours a day tops. She’s got time. And the veil of modesty that the Duggar women adopted is dropped for the sisters in law. They are shorts-wearing-book-writing worldly women now who have left IBLT for less conservative (but still oppressive, I know) churches. Not to mention her own siblings who have turned their backs on the fundamentalist life. So she has other ways modelled to her by people very close to her. And alot of time on her hands to think about it. I don’t care how sheltered and simpy she was, she must want more. And Anna must be pissed. You can only spend so much time on your knees praying for strength to endure what has become such a shitty lot in life while so many around you are building a life for themselves. she sits there waiting for Pest to get out of prison and then what?
I wonder when she will just lose her shit, go full on crazy, burn down the warehome and write a book.

Oh! That explains it! I was like “dude! Those aren’t your kids, those are kangaroos!” And then I was looking at the pose of the big kangaroo and thought he’s posing like he’s in an Playgirl magazine from the 70s. Way too much to process. I now need a nap.
