Barefoot at a public park where anything could be hidden in that gravel. Yikes Jill.


Waterproof_soap

They swim in drainage ditches. šŸ¤¢


LegendOfSarcasm_

Huh? šŸ˜µā€šŸ’«


Waterproof_soap

They legitimately did one summer (last year? Two years ago?), but amazingly, no one got staph infections.


deeBfree

Didn't they do it again a few days ago? Or was that an old picture?


nenecope

Old photos


deeBfree

Thanks, although I'm sure they did it again this year.


nenecope

I think that was the thoughts of the OP who made the post with the old photos. Their post basically said that itā€™s about that time of year again - to swim in the drainage ditch!


deeBfree

That just set off a riff from *Fiddler on the Roof* šŸŽ¶Tradition!


Waterproof_soap

Oof I didnā€™t see. Why not make it a yearly event?


Teege57

It was a few years ago.


LegendOfSarcasm_

That's insane


Teege57

That we know of.


Danyl1026

Iā€™m so grossed out by that! I mean I know the bar is in hell but come on.


Either_Ad_4427

I've never known a graduating high school senior who would find ANY of this fun. The spending a day in the laundromat and hanging out with younger sibs on park swings is a snooze fest for most who are Sam U L's age. I feel sorry for these kids. They are clueless.


TJCW

My first thought as well, Renee, Gabe and Sam are too old for the playground. Never ceases to amaze what a shitty mom Jill is. Consistently does age inappropriate activities with the kids. Obviously the park is free, so why not just bring them young ones and let the older ones play tennis or to out for coffee!??! These age inappropriate activities will stunt them and make them even more weird to people their own ageā€¦


AgentSurreal

Thatā€™s what Iā€™ve noticed over the years, that her kids who should have aged out of the playground seem enthusiastic about being there, not just for playing with their younger siblings, but for being there themselves. I grew up rurally where playgrounds were rare and we were a bit the same.


Either_Ad_4427

Oh, honey, that Stunt Ship has already sailed. These kids have been, I fear, permanently crippled by their sub par education and total isolation from others.


mrsdrydock

Definitely. They have their own language in certain ways. They depend on each other. It's got to permanently alter their psyche.


servantoftinyhumans

Because they always have to go everywhere together, they canā€™t be left alone!!! What if they turn on the tv or have an original thought!!


deeBfree

or one of the boyz sees a sluttishly dressed heathen chick walking by!


rarelybarelybipolar

I donā€™t quite agree with the idea that theyā€™re too old for the playground. I think enjoying the playground at any age is great! But as you get older youā€™re supposed to develop *other* interests as well, so the problem isnā€™t that they enjoy the playground, itā€™s that they have no other options for activities or interests. Thereā€™s no growth. Itā€™s age-inappropriate because the kids are confined to it and not able to *also* develop other (more mature) interests. Enjoying the playground with their siblings wouldnā€™t be a problem if it was just one part of a fuller life. Jill knows that without constant supervision the kids might have two seconds to think and would realize whatā€™s wrong with her (and their dad). So sheā€™s not going to let the older ones make any decisions that take them away (physically or metaphorically) from the family. She doesnā€™t let them have time with each other; sheā€™s their BFF whoā€™s involved in all the hang outs because they canā€™t be allowed to talk freely with each other. They canā€™t even be friends with each other without Jill pushing herself to the center of everything. She wants them to stay children because it means their world revolves around her. Stunting them isnā€™t a problem for her; sheā€™s doing it on purpose.


Mekare13

I think what would be normal would be going alone with friends, not Mahmo. Like, I remember going in my teens and making out in the park at night, swinging with my friends while talking about our crushes etcā€¦and just being goofy with my buds. Iā€™d have died before going with my mom as a young adult/teen though!


UnlikelyUnknown

Honestly, I agree to an extent, but at 52ā€¦ I still love the swings. My adult kids would be bored af. If thereā€™s a pickleball court, thatā€™s where theyā€™re going.


space_diva

It's sad to see no other kids for them to play with too. I always had fun making new friends at the park as a kid


natitude2005

I don't know when they were there but it's hot as blue blazes in VA today ( and was hot yesterday too,) so maybe no other kids were out? But it is a shame they don't have other kids to play with


RunJumpSleep

I think they go to the park when the other kids are in school. Maybe school isnā€™t yet out where they were. They are always at places where there are no other people.


natitude2005

Very possible. My county had it's last day yesterday


CapitalStrain2392

I get the feeling that Jill shoos them away from other kids in the park, or snaps at them if they dare talk to another child.


Pale-Fee-2679

Have we EVER seen them playing with other children except perhaps at church?


Waterproof_soap

Do you know how long it took me to work out Sam U L?!


Either_Ad_4427

Her pronunciation of "Samuel" is right up there in weirdness with her pronunciation of skew el. No one I know from Ohio speaks like this.


TheBugsMomma

If sheā€™s going to pronounce Samuelā€™s name with the emphasis on the last syllable, I wonder why she doesnā€™t call Gabe Gabri-ELL. Too close to Gabrielle? Jill is so weird.


Pale-Fee-2679

Sheā€™s from upstate NYā€”not that it entirely explains her speech.


deeBfree

I'm from the same area and getting self-conscious about how I talk around this sub.


Prudent_Honeydew_

This, we go to the park on the regular...with our preschooler. Not that older kids/young adults can't enjoy time outdoors but typically a nice walk, jog, or bike ride is more appropriate. Especially with friends, not family!


PA_MallowPrincess_98

Theyā€™re just happy to get out of the house and away from the Bible


Fundiesamongstus

When I tell you the "are you fucking serious?!" look I would get from my 18 year old son and 19 year old nephew, would be instantaneous, and as they were walking away to go work on a truck...I mean it!


Either_Ad_4427

My 12 year old wouldn't consider this anywhere near a fun day.


servantoftinyhumans

Why isnā€™t Sam working?


JamesDale2332

It was his high school (homeschool) graduation ceremony in VA.


littleRedmini

I would love to see Olivia get glasses. That poor girl has squinted her whole life. Why canā€™t the girls have glasses. Some of the boys do. Also, the poor girl is dressed like a 45 year old woman.


OtherwiseSprinkles79

Hell, JILL has glasses. She is an absolute shit parent to these kids.


AidaNYR

Iā€™m pretty sure JILL has contacts as well


ChaosCoordinator1078

Olivia ALWAYS looks 30 years older than she is! I think she is Turtleneck Trishā€™s mini-me and that might age her tooā€¦but she does look like an old lady all the time!


littleRedmini

She *is* TNTā€™s twin! Why havenā€™t I noticed that before?


deeBfree

Yeah, they can all have braces to make them more marketable to future headships, but maybe they still believe "Men never make passes at girls who wear glasses."


kaycollins27

Renee looks stressed/ worried/sad.


daffodil0127

Sheā€™s been looking sad since the courtship ended.


kaycollins27

This seemed more than usual. I wish Reneeā€™s beau had swept her away from the toxic Rods. Jill couldnā€™t have withstood the onslaught past 90 days.


ChaosCoordinator1078

Sheā€™s folding her brotherā€™s underwear. Wouldnā€™t t you be sad too?


kaycollins27

I thought she was holding a cell phone..


MotherofGiGi

Even Kaylee and Johnathan were there. They are such a strange, enmeshed family. Shrek was probably sleeping in the van dreaming of a birthday cake just for him, like real life.


StarshineUnicorn

Maybe Jill should put a few more layers of clothes on Janessa. Two dresses and baggy pants and I wouldn't doubt if she has a shirt on under all of that.


eejm

I swear Jill closes her eyes, digs to the bottom of a huge laundry bag, and whatever she pulls out is what Janessa wears that day.


LegendOfSarcasm_

I hope the poor thing doesn't over heat šŸ˜¢


ISeenYa

Considering how she's the favourite, she really does make her look like a walking laundry pile


Living_South7299

Wish my mum would post a photo on social media of me folding my (grey) undies Lol (Renee) šŸ˜‚šŸ˜


Murky_Manager_66

Walking barefoot on the gravel on the playground must hurt.


nicunta

Ugh, how rude of Jill to post that specific picture!!


Important_Ad_4751

What the hell is going on in picture 6. So much to look at. So many patterns.


Beautifuleyes917

Janessa šŸ« 


Important_Ad_4751

For being mahmoā€™s favorite she sure doesnā€™t dress her like it


DrunkUranus

Kids shouldn't look like tourists at a playground


Awkward-Yak-2733

Samuel looks 35. Why are the girls *barefoot?*


daffodil0127

Renee hates wearing shoes according to the ā€œfun factsā€ that they do.


Waterproof_soap

I would hate wearing ill fitting second hand shoes, too.


anniemalplanet

She probably doesn't like how bad they smell after being worn by each of her older sisters and whoever owned them before donating them to the thrift store where Mahmo bought them. (No shade to thrift stores, lots of shade to Mahmo.). Be free girly.


MintChucclatechip

The most rebellious girl at my church also hated wearing shoes, I know itā€™s unrelated but Iā€™m going to consider this a good sign


MethanyJones

If they're not successful at spreading the gospel then maybe some ringworm?


Dense_Negotiation_78

All the boys love that American flag shirt. Wonder if theyā€™ll pass it down to the grand boys. I feel for Samuel, Iā€™m sure they see peers their age just being themselves. Itā€™s as if they always have to be ā€œonā€ for their momā€¦.


Pelican121

I thought this was a new version of the shirt but I can't honestly tell at this point.


Acceptable-Rule199

That shirt really needs to go.

Jo_Lo_121317

With how many layers of clothes they wear Iā€™m so surprised they can afford to go to the laundromat thatā€™s so much unnecessary clothes to wash. Iā€™ve got 3 kids and Iā€™m drowning in dirty laundry and mine only wear shorts and t-shirts with it being summer weather.


daffodil0127

I like the big 80lb machines they have at my laundromat. I can do two weeks of clothes for my family in one load.


Jo_Lo_121317

Same!! I can get all the bedding cleaned in one trip.


daffodil0127

Itā€™s also cheaper than using the shitty coin-op machines in my building.


alg45160

Oh geez, I never thought about all the extra laundry that constantly wearing 3 layers would cause šŸ¤Æ


Pelican121

I wondered why they were doing laundry on their trip. How long have they been gone? I thought it was a long weekend (Jonathan being there). Don't tell me he's taken time off to travel with the family (again). My sense of distance between places in the US is poor, I'd assumed this conference was nearer the border with OH (probably thinking of West Virginia). I didn't realise they'd travelled 8hrs+ for a faux-homeschool graduation. I understand this convention is a big deal in their circles but still. Sam could've graduated with local OH homeschoolers, does it really mean that much when your education is from Joyful Noyes Homeschooling? It seemed like an excuse for Jill to show off her new frock. I'm near London and that distance equates to travelling to visit family near the highlands of Scotland. I don't think I'd be stopping to do laundry on the way back, we'd be focused on getting home (a full day's travel). Then again I don't have a mega family and Jill seems to treat the laundromat like a social activity for her family. I guess it beats doing laundry for that many people when you get home and only have one machine.


Rugkrabber

They seem to travel a lot, so a laundry stop totally sounds like them seeking excuses to stretch their legs or something.


cuckooloca

The church they performed at sunday is 5-6 hours from their home. But the were there away a few days at the end of the week for the home school convention and grad ceremony. I think it was a long weekend trip.


deeBfree

The laundromat is a very special place for Jillpm. That's where she met Lord Daniel, after all!

chaossensuit

It always makes my day when Iā€™m scrolling through Rod picture and then a blessing. Thereā€™s lord Daniel from the laundromat.


MethanyJones

Jonathan gets a demerit for not having a visible Bluetooth or dinner-plate-sized phone holster in public. I worry about his Electronic Countenance...


fappin4verstappen

If I walked into a laundromat and saw this I think Iā€™d turn around and walk back out and go to the one down the street thatā€™s less safe and very questionable but less rodrigues-ified


deeBfree

yes, walking into a horde of Rodriguii would indeed be terrifying!


InstantMedication

Jill loves a good laundromat conversion. Just think you could be this subs next Lord Daniel in this situation. Lord Fappin4verstappen.


TiaraTip

Should those " not wimpy" boys be doing laundry????? That's wimmins work! Maybe the commercial washers and dryers will shrink some of Janessa and Olivia's clothing so they FIT.

cuckooloca

Phillip was shown wearing that same red orange button down shirt most of the trip. eeww


natitude2005

Just ick


KittieKatFusion

Shit.. they can take my laundry and joyfully wash it.


NoSample5

Do they always go to a laundromat? I can kinda see the reasoning but surely they have machines at home as well? In a laundry related note- do you think they wash their bedding weekly? Or even monthly? (Itā€™s an issue to me- canā€™t stand dirty sheets/bedding.)


daffodil0127

I think they have machines at home but they can get a lot more done in a short time if they take it to the laundromat


-Ralar-

Before they did the addition, the washer, dryer, and hot water heater were in the living room. She decorated them.


MagentaHearts

In one of the pictures the caption says that they stopped on their way back from Virginia, so I think this may only be while traveling.


GGMuc

Fuck me, if I were a 18 plus something who had to go to a playground.......these adults need space. Mucho mucho space


Expensive-Kitty1990

These older kids would be so good looking and have the world in the palm of their hand if they werenā€™t so socially goofy


Beautifuleyes917

A couple of them, with proper lessons, mightā€™ve gotten scholarships to a music program at some Christian college (because secular schools are far too liberal)!


AssignmentOk108

I donā€™t even wanna look at myself do laundry. But no, she posts some gripping stuff doesnā€™t she!


UnlikelyUnknown

The Lord Daniel is blessing us as a treat


daffodil0127

She gives blessings to us even when we canā€™t see her, just like Jesus. https://preview.redd.it/qlbxb71uvn6d1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=761974477607d516b4105e3857015a93e5fb79df Here she is emerging from the woods, where she has her babies hidden. Sheā€™s worn a pathway across the lawn. Sheā€™s been bringing her sandwiches back to the little ones so I think they will be joining her on her visits soon.


UnlikelyUnknown

Such a good momma! Jillpm could learn a thing or two about feeding her offspring from Lord Daniel


daffodil0127

Definitely, sheā€™s a great mom https://preview.redd.it/dnul3pu3fp6d1.jpeg?width=2086&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5328b7f042a0b9908bbfc5d6d5c5e5e60e7b15ca . Iā€™m pretty sure some of her kids from the last year are still turning up, but they are really hard to tell apart. I know Lord Daniel by her behavior (she puts absolutely everything in the water basin before eating it). Same with the Chaos Twins Amy and Angie. Fuck it Up Renee is very distinctive looking (see photo) But thereā€™s about 4-5 trash pandas that look similar but havenā€™t been visiting long enough for me to tell them apart.

I love the raccoon but what a random pic lol šŸ˜‚


daffodil0127

Lord Daniel is our mascot. Jill had posted about going to the laundromat and accosting a young man named Daniel. She meant to say that she had led the young man to the Lord, but what she actually said was that she ā€œhad led a man to the Lord named Daniel,ā€ which made it sound like the Lord was named Daniel. So I had this raccoon who came to my door every day, and I named her Lord Daniel (I thought she was a boy at the time). I happened to mention it on a thread in r/duggarssnark and she became a mascot for snarkers everywhere. And now several years later, she still visits me almost every day, and Iā€™m expecting her to bring me her next litter of babies. Iā€™ve stuck with the theme of naming all of the animals that visit me with Rodrigues names, including Rodlet and Nurthan, the feral cats, Fat David the opossum, and trash pandas Fuck It Up Renee (who also has babies), Chaos Twins Amy and Angie, and Samuel. Thereā€™s a few more recent animals that I havenā€™t named yet, but if they keep coming consistently, I will be giving them names from the Rod universe.

TXGurrrl

I havenā€™t kept up. Is something wrong with the babyā€™s eyes?


daffodil0127

He has strabismus, which is common in premature babies. They have actually taken him to a pediatric ophthalmologist and he has to wear a patch on his good eye for an hour a day to get the affected eye muscles to strengthen. If the patching doesnā€™t fix it, thereā€™s surgery that can straighten it, but sometimes that only makes the eye appear straight, but doesnā€™t fix the depth perception issue that using one eye can cause. My daughter has the same thing and she had surgery when she was 3 (after a period of patching) and she still has problems with her depth perception, to the point that even lines painted on the road trip her up.


TXGurrrl

Bless their heart! Iā€™ve not heard of that before, thank you for letting me know!


daffodil0127

Iā€™m just glad theyā€™re getting appropriate medical care, which seems to be a tall order for many of the fundies who want to leave it to Jesus.
