The Duggar Siblings Differ on How They’re Raising Their Kids

The Duggar family has been caught up in multiple scandals in recent years, and more may be on the way. The family will be the focus of an Amazon Studios docuseries about the Institute of Basic Life Principles. While the controversial ministry was once a massive part of the Duggar brand, many of the family’s children have struck out on their own and are doing things differently. Some adult Duggar kids are following their parents’ lead, while others are charting their own courses, well, sort-of.

The Duggar kids differ in their social media usage 

The Duggar kids all largely grew up in the spotlight. That doesn’t mean they all plan to do the same with their children. While all of the Duggar kids were active on social media, showing off their children, while the family had a reality TV show, things have changed substantially. Both Jinger Vuolo and Jill Dillard remain active on social media but have opted not to show their children’s faces. Joseph Duggar and Josiah Duggar have shied away from social media completely, and John David Duggar only occasionally shares photos of his children.
