Jim Bob & Michelle Duggar Still Consider Josh Golden Child

Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar still consider Josh as their golden child. As fans already know, the family never treated men and women the same. The daughters helped out with the parenting responsibilities, while their brothers could attend college, work, and travel.

Last month, the Supreme Court denied Josh’s appeal. He’s been trying to overturn his case for the past few years. Josh’s attorney filed three new appeals, all of which failed.

Some fans think Jim Bob is wasting time and money on his eldest son. He believes that his son should be cleared of his wrongdoings. Keep on reading to learn more.

Supreme Court Rejects Josh Duggar’s Appeal

According to a recent update, the Supreme Court rejected Josh Duggar’s appeal for certiorari. He hoped he could have his case overturned by the highest court in the country. It still needs to be revealed why the Supreme Court rejected his latest appeal.

A certiorari is an appeal to ask the higher court to review the lower court’s decisions. Josh’s conviction is final despite his claims of innocence. He blames Caleb Williams as the alternate suspect. He also refuses to take accountability for what he’s done.

Meanwhile, Josh Duggar is seeking revenge on this family. An insider claimed he’s upset about their lack of effort in helping with an early release. Josh wants to write a tell-all book that exposes his family.

Jim Bob is uncomfortable with this thought. He’s been trying to get his oldest son out of jail. While some of Josh’s sisters have forgiven him, he won’t forgive them for not supporting him during the trials.

Jim Bob Duggar Treats Josh as Golden Child

However, some fans think Jim Bob Duggar still gives Josh special treatment. This was brought up in a recent thread on Reddit. The original poster regarded Josh Duggar as the “Golden Child” of the family.

According to the poster, Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar still treat Josh with child gloves despite his sins. He could be stripped of his title after he serves time in prison. Many Redditors believe Jim Bob and Michelle will continue to give Josh special treatment.

“So, everyone knows Pest is the golden child. But assuming that prison stripped him of that title, who is the new golden child?” one fan asked.

“JB will always support him but I get the impression Michelle doesn’t like him,” another user noted.

“I think Josh is JB’s fav and Josie is Meech’s fav. I don’t think they can do anything to fall out of the favor of either,” a third user wrote.
