I'd say more people would be upset to read that "she might be in a ditch" as opposed to criticism of the parents role.

When I read the initial "in a ditch" post I just had an image of someone doing that to my own daughter and it upset me (Although Im not saying teh post should not have been allowed). I can understand that you dont want to be insensitive in case some close family of maddie's come across this discussion, but in my opinion the majority of the readers of this thread are not related.

COming across a post criticising the parents role is no different to putting on the TV and seeing someone saying the same thing on the news.

I think that people should not be disuaded from discussing the parents trole in this thread, it might prevent other parents from thinking that its ok to do this as it would never happen to tehir own kid.
