I came online just to ask this very same question....I wonder if this is part of their religion.... I looked it up and it says they are Quiverfull (they believe any and all birth control is wrong and also reverse sterilization etc...) but it didn't say if dresses for women were part of the religion and what the reason is.
I too am a Christian and believe these people are trying their best in a crazy world..BUT...doesn't the mom seem glazed over and sort of programmed...? I don't know.... I do know I felt sorry for the girls trying to ride horses with skirts on!

I grew up with a lot of friends who only wore dresses. For some it is a personal conviction of what is best for themselves. Those who are not legalistic do not condemn those women who choose to wear pants. I think the Duggars fall into this category. They are incredibly bright, articulate, well-adjusted kids. I hope to be so successful in rearing my three boys.
Blessings!

I believe it may have something to do with there religion. If not, it could be because with sooooo many kids to dress, you can get away with wearing dresses a little bit longer and another comment, I believe there mom makes those dresses. It's cheaper to do that then to buy or maybe they could get away with thrift clothes.

the girls only wear dresses cause its part of their religion, its that same reason why there are so many children, their religion doesnt beleive in birth control. i have met the family before, they are a really nice group of people and are very happy with their way of life.

I think it is because they are a traditional Christian family. I was raised the same way. I did not wear pants until I was in college.

It's their way of life. Why do you wear pants? Some girls wear only skirts.
