Possibly, so much.<\/h2>\n<p>People on Reddit and beyond have expressed their shock and concern over this letter, so let\u2019s break it down.<\/p>\n<p>First up, it\u2019s odd to read a member of the infamous Duggar clan refer to his mother by her name.<\/p>\n<p>Some families do that. But overall, the Duggars and Seewalds seem more like those creepy families where people unironically call their parents \u201cma\u2019am\u201d and \u201csir\u201d as if it were normal.<\/p>\n<p>Him thanking her for taking care of him is normal for a child. It\u2019s not <em>necessary<\/em>, because parents have a duty to take care of their children, but it\u2019s a precious sentiment and very normal.<\/p>\n<p>Spurgeon thanking Jessa for homeschooling him instead of allowing him to get a real education is more sad than anything else. Like his mother and most of his extended family, he has no idea what he\u2019s being deprived of.<\/p>\n<blockquote data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DQpS0fHEVD7\/?utm_source=ig_embed&#038;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\"><\/blockquote>\n<p>There is no date on the paper. It is possible that this is a letter from, say, 3-4 years ago, when the letter would be more developmentally appropriate.<\/p>\n<p>If Spurgeon were attending an actual school \u2014 where he\u2019d get to socialize with peers, be taught by professionals, and learn about the world \u2014 he\u2019d very likely be a rising fifth grader.<\/p>\n<p>By this age, most children are developmentally able to print neatly (or write in cursive if someone makes them, for some reason), writing elaborate stories containing original ideas.<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps this is a Mother\u2019s Day card. Perhaps this is an old letter-writing practice from when he was 6 or 7, in which case the large and uneasy printing of letters makes sense.<\/p>\n<p>If Jessa wants to reassure fans that she\u2019s qualified to teach her children (she is not), she could show a more recent writing project from her 10-and-a-half-year-old.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Reading Time: 3 minutes Is everything okay?
