I am a 34 year old mother of six. Thats right, six! I am proud to be a quiver full wife, mother, and most of all woman. I am not abused, dilusional, or brow-beaten. I believe in biblical submission to my husband. Not as his door mat but as his help-meet, (this is the biblical term, not mine). Things are far more equal in this movement then people like Vyckie Bennett or Garrison now want to claim. Fame seeking femanist like Vyckie Bennett claim women in this "movement" are coerced are not complete without their husband because we need the "patriarch" over us. So how do you explain the counter to this, which is this "movement" also teaches that husbands NEED their wives. A completely whole person does not need "help" from anyone, there fore there would be no need to "meet". And those needs go far beyond the bedroom. It is sad that because most quiverfull families are reserved and chose not to respond to Vyckie's slander, that the silences are being assumed confessions of wrong doing. I personally know Vyckie Bennett, and I can assure you the story she now tells is far different from the story we experienced with her. Truth be told, I believe that when Vyckie lost her 15 minutes of fame with-in the QF family, she sought for more avenues of attention.
