A teenaged boy, not allowed contact with the opposite sex or any expression of his sexuality in a house full of girls roughly his age is a recipe for disaster. It's apparent.
And seeing how his father was not a sex offender, the genetic factor you talked about is excluded, and even then its significance is rather overstated. The explanation is quite obvious.
If you're using the argument that it can't be genetic because otherwise his dad would be a molester too, then the same argument can be used to say it wasn't due to his upbringing otherwise all his other siblings would be molesters too.
All I'm saying is that it's a very incriminating accusation to say that a person's parents are to blame for that person having molested or raped someone. The Duggar's have 19 kids. As far as we know, only one of those 19 has this problem. It just seems like a rash judgement.
Not really. Most of their children, afaik, are female, and that alone renders them less likely to be sex offenders. And for the cause to be genetic, his father had to be a molester too. Not *all* boys raised this way will become sex offenders, but it will undoubtedly affect them in a negative way.
You keep saying that I'm blaming their parents. I'm not. I'm blaming the idea of repressing sexual urges, and most of all I'm blaming Josh Duggar. Duh.
