Jana Duggar, the oldest daughter of Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar, is getting worn out from the immense responsibility that the parents of the large family have been bestowing on her for years.
Rumors have been flying about Jana, 24, after speculation started that she’s ready to “break away” from the famous brood.
Now a source close to the family says that Jana is getting “worn down” from doing so much for the family.
“It’s absolutely ridiculous how much the family makes Jana and the older siblings do. Jim Bob and Michelle have totally transitioned a lot of their parental responsibilities onto her,” the source told Radar Online.
“Ever since she was young, she’s had to watch over the house while Jim Bob and Michelle would go out for date night alone.”
While Jim Bob, 49, and Michelle, 48, would go out for a date--which they do every Saturday night, at the very least--Jana was left to babysit all of the younger children herself, the source claims.
“She looks so tired and worn down sometimes. You can’t help but feel bad for her, having to take on all that responsibility at a young age,” the source said. “It’s like she’s been a parent ever since she was 13! It’s sad.”
