The famous reality star clan, Duggar family, had decided to get more serious on practicing their traditional courtship rules as 19-year old Joy-Anna enters courting and follows steps of her older sisters.
But this time, it seems like the rules have been extra strict as the young Duggar have been heavily guarded with the simple dates she has been having with her romantic friend, Austin Forsyth, whom she introduced on November as the one she will be starting to officially court.
According to The Hollywood Gossip, as sweet as the young couple might be, it is reportedly a bad timing for Joy-Anna's man to come to her life. This is because the young couple will not have some alone time with each other as the Duggar parents become more careful to assure that their daughter will not be breaking their family law.
The reality family is known for their courtship rules which applies to all of their grownup children, with respect to their Christian values and conservative characteristics they have been practicing.
But it can be recalled that the newly-wed, Jinger Duggar, who was married last November, was not keen into following the rules and even stated that during her relationship with then-boyfriend, Jeremy Vuolo (now husband), she made some courtship rules that only applies to her.
It can also be recalled that Jim Bob and wife Michelle were a bit disappointed about it and even thought she was taking the relationship a bit too quickly. But it was all over when she finally married her longtime boyfriend and changed her surname to Vuolo.
However, the Duggar parents' attention diverted to their youngest grownup daughter, Joy-Anna, when she announced she's officially courting. The problem is, it seems like she is paying for Jinger's fault of violating the family rules as on this early stage of her relationship with Austin Forsyth, she is already heavily guarded by the her parents.
According to Inquisitr, Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar are sticking to them like glue on every date and events they have been to. Recently, the family posted a photo on their official Facebook page, with the parents, Joy and Austin Forsyth, who celebrated her 23rd birthday that time.
A report said that it was obvious that Forsyth's face looked a little nervous, which was understandable because he probably knew the parents are going to be very strict this time.
Jim Bob reportedly mentioned that he will be the one to make sure that Joy-Anna will be taking the whole process of courtship in accordance to their courtship rule. Rumors also have it that some parts of her courtship will be featured in the new season of Counting On next year.
