How sad...we all knew something was going to happen (i.e., a Duggar child coming out, leaving the homestead (free Jinger, anyone?), someone getting arrested), but I think it's safe to say no one here wanted things to turn out quite like this.
A quick Google search of "sex abuse in the IFB" will give you numerous pages from "IFB Cult Survivors" support groups to pages criticizing the culture of the Independent Fundamentalist Baptist churches from former IFB Christians, Christians never affiliated with the IFB, and former Christians alike. One of the criticisms of the IFB specifically is a culture where a man can molest and/or abuse children with almost impunity, and worse, if the victim is female, the blame gets dumped on the female victim for "tempting him".
The fact Josh did this for so long, and the parents didn't do much speaks volumes on the Quiverfull, IFB, and "How to Train up a Child" culture. With TLC more than likely going to cancel the show, the Duggars are going to have some difficulty doing business outside of the IFB community in and around Arkansas. Sure, Mike Huckabee is supporting them now, but come election time, will the support still be there? Let's see.
My biggest hope by and far is that the girls who were affected get the help they need, because I don't think they'll find it in the IFB community.
