Cable network TLC aired a Sister Wives marathon on New Year's Day, running all the episodes as well as a special on the Brown family. The Brown family includes well over a dozen kids, four moms and one dad. Though polygamy is illegal in Utah, where the Brown's live, TLC's reality mini-series Sister Wives chronicles the workings of their newly-expanded family for the world to plainly see. Recently, here in Arizona, infamous polygamist Warren Jeffs had sex-with-minors charges against him dismissed by a Mojave County judge. We here at TCHE don't care what consenting adults like the Browns do, but what kind of judge lets an alleged child molestor off the hook from thorough prosecution without a good reason? (Judge Steven Conn, that's who, and we personally think he's an idiot.) Sister Wives provides a glimpse into the lives of people we all know exist, but who most of us do not fully understand or have any direct experience with. Kody Brown and his brood will tell you they are just normal people living a rather extraordinary life, all just one big happy family. Through emotional conflict and daily chaos, they choose to remain a family unit, and even recently added a new wife and welcomed her children from a previous relationship. What do you think? Have you seen Sister Wives? Do you have strong opinions on polygamy? Sound off in the comments section and let us know how you feel; please keep it clean! | |
