Counting On star Derick Dillard caught a lot of attention after liking a post on social media recently. Apparently, Derick liked a post criticizing the Institute in Basic Life Principles, which is the religion the Duggars follow. According to the post, the IBLP is a literal “cult” of Bill Gothard. The post also says, “It teaches his perverse version of Christianity that encourages submission and victimization. Fertility is placed above individuality or personhood.” After that, the post ended with a statement saying that Jim Bob keeps the children’s compliant through financial and emotional abuse.

Meanwhile, Derick also has allegations of his own against Jim Bob. According to him, Jim Bob withheld payments from them during their time in the family’s reality show. Since their estrangement from the family, Jill and Derick have been doing rebellious activities. At one point, Jill and Derick drank alcohol with Jill’s cousin Amy King with her husband. Jill and Derick also sent their kids to public school instead of homeschooling. Jill even pierced her nose and cut her hair short, which is against the family’s strict rules of modesty.

Counting On: Derick’s Tell-All Book
