Angie Sullivan, of the “I’ve Had It” podcast, told her cohost Jennifer Welch that she was inherently distrustful of parents who actually enjoy spending time with their children.
Sullivan made the comments in the broader context of a conversation about homeschooling — which she also does not like, for a variety of reasons — and she said that it was “weird” to imagine mothers wanting to spend all of their time with their children.

Sullivan began by suggesting that it was a red flag that so many women involved in Bible study also chose to homeschool their children.
“You would not believe how many people in Bible study homeschool their kids, and you just think, eeehhhh, I worry about that. And then you see those witness booklets or whatever they’re called that the Duggar’s used, and they’re like, top out at eighth grade …” she said, scrunching up her face in obvious revulsion in a clear attempt to tie all Christians and homeschoolers to the Duggar family’s more recent trials.
“I just think homeschooling is a bad idea from soup to nuts. I don’t care if you’re a nuclear physicist. I think it’s just f*cking weird as f*ck that you want your kids around you all day, every day, and all night,” she added, suggesting that she would have strapped her own children to her back and “crawled” if that was the only way to get them out of her house and to school each day — if only just “to get them where I wasn’t.”
“So, I don’t trust somebody that wants to be with their kids 24/7. I think a lot of dumb people do it because it’s just easier, and that’s a concern,” she said, arguing that homeschooling was somehow “easier” for parents than putting children on the bus and washing their hands of the entire situation.
She then complained that kids who homeschooled could get all their work done in a few hours because they were not tied to the school’s schedule, arguing that gave the kids too much free time: “I just can’t think of very many good things about homeschooling.”
