Cancel 19 Kids and Counting

The Issue

Recently Josh Duggar admitted to molesting several young girls when he was a teenager, reportedly some of his victims are his sisters. His parents knew of his actions and covered them up when the show 19 Kids and Counting was on the TLC (The Learning Channel) network and TLC reportedly knew of Josh Duggar's offenses as well. Considering that in the fall of 2014 another show on the same network, Here Comes Honey Boo Boo, was cancelled due to one of the shows stars reportedly dating a child molester, it would be beyond hypocritical for TLC to allow 19 Kids and Counting to air. For them to pay a family that covered up and hid the molestation of children, including their own, not only shows that the network endorses and condones pedophilia, but it also exposes the network to extreme hypocrisy. 

Regardless of the family's expressed "remorse", the show should not be allowed to continue, ever. Any fees the family is owed should instead go to foundations that assist survivors of childhood molestation and rape as well, however this petition is to call for the outright cancellation of 19 Kids and Counting from the TLC network. If not, those signing this petition agree to boycott any and all remaining shows that air on their network.
