Funny or Die’s Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar Apologize for Son’s ‘Mistakes’

So far, Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar have only released a short statement explaining why they waited so long to report their son Josh Duggar’s admitted molestation incidents. But now, thanks to Funny or Die, we have a video message from the 19 Kids and Counting parents themselves.

“With more kids than an NBA team we were bound to have one troubled kid,” Jim Bob admits in the video.

“When we were first told about Josh’s mistakes, we did the right thing and we ignored the girl who came forward,” Michelle says. “Girls lie all the time, it’s what they do,” her husband adds.

In the end, Jim Bob says, “We’ve been dealing with this situation the best way that we know how,” before his wife cuts him off: “Which means – that’s right, we’re expecting!”
