Fans of the show have been critical of the fact that Josie’s health issues and childhood was open for all to see as part of the TV show.

Experts worry that Josie might face embarrassment once she grows up as the people she meets may see her through the lens of the television series, according to ABC News.

Fans also speculate that as she is the youngest and the most delicate of all the Duggar children, she may be getting preferential treatment from her parents, and is their favorite.

In 2013, Michelle shared that although Josie had caught up on life like every other child, she is not allowed to have dairy products in her diet.
