Re: Toddler 'abducted' during holiday
 

It's not just a mistake it's downright irresponsibility. Never mind reports of suspicious characters, you do not leave children of that age on their own and go out for a meal under any circumstances. There also seems to be some implication in this thread that mentioning this fact is somehow hampering the search or showing a less caring attitude towards the missing girl. Can anyone explain the logic behind this?

Re: Toddler 'abducted' during holiday
 

If this was an old person going missing nobody would care. I agree with cr. Total irresponsibility on the part of the parents. I hope when things are sorted out that they will take the parents to task. Please sign my petition for another cause that will affect each and every one of us at some stage in our lives: http://petitions.pm.gov.uk/Continuing-Care/ probably nobody will bother because it is to do with sick and elderly people and not a pretty little girl. I have the government breaking the law once again to save money from their own private purse. I am responsible but they don't give a s**t. Well that's life.

Kind Regards,

Stephen (Johnson).

Very.


I thought the MSN News blog I quoted earlier was very good too.

Someone on another forum I visit has pointed out that the Madeleine story is now listed as an example of this.

Take a good long look at that face, and let only the totally pure and innocent cast the first stone at the parents :(

Re: Toddler 'abducted' during holiday
 

Some people say on this thread 'you can't look after your kids 24/7'. My ex wife and I did with our three daughters and we never had a problem because we had common sense, even at the age of 23 when we became parents.

Re: Toddler 'abducted' during holiday
 

Ex wife? so something was wrong.

So its all there fault, nothing to do with the perve that abducted her???
You must have a shallow life :(

Re: Toddler 'abducted' during holiday
 

Of course it's not all their fault (assuming that she has been abducted by a 'perv'). Do you not agree though that going out for a meal and leaving children of that age on their own is completely unacceptable behavior?

Re: Toddler 'abducted' during holiday
 

:rolleyes:

If she was a deformed freak from a single mother on the opposite social scale, who makes a habit of leaving her child alone, would you feel the same? Probably not, because you wouldn't have had the media coverage, nor the sigs, nor the ads, nor the headlines etc etc etc.

Re: Toddler 'abducted' during holiday
 

I would feel the same about any child, wouldnt you ???

Re: Toddler 'abducted' during holiday
 

Very interesting link, it sounds crazy but it really does fit with what's happening these days.

Re: Toddler 'abducted' during holiday
 

You misunderstood my post and answered with a question, but you chose to ignore it anyway.

My answer would be slightly different, because of the angle I'd have heard, I'd still feel sorry for the little un, just as much as I feel for maddie. But the unfit parent would have been vilified don't you agree, the outcome would be sllightly different to what's happening now. But it would have been blamed on the social services or something wouldn't it.

Off topic posts removed. Please start a new topic to discuss things totally unrelated to this missing girl.

Re: Toddler 'abducted' during holiday
 

Well the point is there are that many children dying every day with no mention whatsoever in the media and yet you have this ridiculous response to one who is white and pretty. Obviously I hope she's ok (who wouldn't?) but this guilt by proxy sensationalism designed to sell newspapers is becoming a bit tiresome.

Re: Toddler 'abducted' during holiday
 

How do we know a perve abducted her? With regard to my marriage it was a mutual agreement and my children did not suffer. My ex wife and I are extremely good friends and still look after our three girls even though the eldest is almost 30.

Mr. Moderator - I hope this is sticking to the point????????????????????????????????????????

Re: Toddler 'abducted' during holiday
 

Same here.


I often have News24 or Sky News on in the background if I'm not watching something specific, but haven't done so much recently, 'cos quite frankly I'm bored of the constant OTT media coverage (if that makes me sound like a miserable uncaring ass then so be it - why should I care more for her than any other? What makes this particular case so special? What about all the others?). It seems that nothing else is being reported.

Reminds me of when Diana died, all the OTT media frenzy & obsessive grief, pushing all other stories out of the news, all the people getting so worked up & emotional about someone they had never met & they had nothing to do with.




:tu:



It appears to be the most likely thing, based upon the information available to the public so far.


Doesn't seem that she was taken for ransom, & the only other "reasons" she would have been taken are not ones which in any way could lead to a happy outcome.



As it has been over a fortnight now I think that it is surely most likely that Madeleine is dead already rather than safe & well as hoped by all, or is being kept alive for reasons which could be considered worse than death :(
