Life Is Short; Have an Affair

[Catholic_Lady]

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.

Well when you said it was their "preaching" that caused it, and that it was the way they were raised, I'm not sure how that does not implicate the parents who were the ones who taught them these ideals and raised them in this way. 

Also, just because a person may be genetically predisposed to a particular type of sex drive, or sexual deviance, preference, etc, doesn't necessarily mean his parents have it too.  

I still stand by that it's rash judgement to assume that it was their upbringing that caused a person whom you have never even met to molest other people, and that we should try to avoid such judgments. Agree to disagree I guess.
