"Yes. It’s outrageous how Jim Bob and Michelle are coaching their daughters to act like [their molestation] is no big deal. Keeping that show on the air would give the appearance that TLC is condoning child molestation. That’s dangerous for young people."

"Yes. The show is too easily accessible to children. We shouldn’t be exposing children to that kind of subject matter. It sends the wrong message that child molestation is OK. And it’s not. It’s actually pretty sick."

"No. It can go back on the air. One scandal doesn’t poison the entire show. There’s still something of value in that show for some people. I wouldn’t watch it, but somebody else might get something out of it."

"Absolutely. It should stay out of the public realm. It’s disgusting how the parents are minimizing Josh’s molestation of his sisters. Jim Bob and Michelle should have gone to the police immediately. If they were true Christians, they would have sought help immediately."
