The family decide that it's time to discuss the rules for their courtships.
Everyone asked what is Courtship
* Jason: Dating with a purpose and to get to know the person and their family with marriage in mind.
* Jinger: Not all courtships end in marriage and it's okay.
* Jim Bob: Don't be afraid to get involved in your kids relationship.
Jim Bob and Michelle had been part of Ben and Jessa's text messages and encourage their kids to take a chaperone with them on dates so they can ensure that they stick to their courtship standards.
Anna reveals that it's not the same rules as everyone else. She hopes that they all have a goal to remain pure heart before God.
What is a chaperone?
Jordyn: A chaperone is one that watches the people that are engaged or courting couple but they don't watch married couples.
Josh, Jill and Jessa all had three months engagement periods. They have always saved their physical relationship and keep their engagement short to make sure that they stay away from temptations.
* Joy: "Once you say yes, I mean, why wait forever? I just say get it done."
The family wants to make sure that the engaged couple are ready to be parents before they get married since Josh and Anna found out that they were pregnant about four months after their wedding, Derick and Jill found out about four weeks after their wedding and then Ben and Jessa found out that they were pregnant about three months into their marriage.
