*Content Warning: Brief mentions of child ab*se, domestic ab*se, suic*de ideation* The Institute in Basic Life Principles is an extreme Christian fundamentalist set of beliefs that took hold on society when The Duggars (from TLC’s “19 kids and Counting”) made it popular. These beliefs look “Happy and Shiny” from the surface, but deep inside rots the truth about the misogynistic, abusive and oppressive practices that force children and wives to obey at all costs. Jen joins us and tells (for the first time) her painstaking journey of her “poster child” life-- from growing up in the IBLP, to being hand selected by the it's leader Bill Gothard, and the harmful consequences that followed.
