Best Answer

The Duggars joined the Quiverfull movement because of an experience that happened to them early in their marriage. When they were first married, Michelle Duggar was on Birth Control pills for a few years. After the birth of their first son, Josh, she went back on the pill. A while later, she found out she was pregnant, and then had a miscarriage. Her doctor told her that she had miscarried because she conceived while on birth control. This situation led Jim Bob and Michelle to look to The Bible for answers, where they came to the conclusion that children were a gift from God, and that they should trust God to give them as many children as He saw fit.

What is the Duggar families religion?

They are Independent Baptists. They watch TV but not a lot, and they do have a computer. I know this because they have said so themselves. I do not know for sure if they are Quiverfull, the reason, (according to them) that they want as many children as God allows is because they were using birth control in the beginning and miscarried their first child. They also follow the teachings of Bill Gothard, which is where they get the beliefs of women wearing dresses and having long hair and no dancing. Josh and Anna were married in a Baptist church.The Duggars also are associated with a Conservative Christian movement called Quiverfull. Quiverfull families try to have as many children as possible and do not use any birth control.They just have as many children as "God intends them to have."

No. The Quiverfull movement does not limit the number of children a family can have. Their point, as I understand it, is to leave the number of children in a family up to God to decide.

Do Quiverfull families use the rhythm method?

I read that the Duggars use NOTHING, but they may avoid sex during certain times regarding their personal and religious health. I personally think they SHOULD use the rhythm method!
