i cannot believe some of you see fit to slag these people off while thier child is still missing.
for crying out loud, yes most of us would not have done what they did, BUT the child is still missing, and it's probably ripping thier hearts to pieces. have a heart for god's sake. don't make nasty piss taking comments about them, it doesn't make you look good. honest.

Live and don't learn, that's me.
sorry, but i didnt know her, she aint a relative of mine, the parents should not have left her alone, i do hope she is alive but the chances of that are slim......and can i ask why should i give a shit?

Funnier than he thinks he is.
Two things are going thru my mind.
At which point do the parents give up hope and decide to come home, and how the hell do you make a decisiojn like that?
Is it not possible that the incredible media interest in this case, well out of proportion when other kids go missing all the time as others have pointed out, make it increasingly likely that whoever took her is going to, or already have killed her, as it will be impossible to bring her back now. Like stealing the crown jewels you'd end up ditching them as you couldn't possible sell them on as they would be too well known.

Some people are so determined to be 'cool' and alternative that they don't see the diff between - on the one hand - baulking at the media presentation of the story and how many of the general public are consumed by the media presentation, and - on the other - the personal tragedy of losing your child.sorter said:
Actually, those people just ain 't too bright in my experience., so I'd try not to think about it as they surely aren't.
I suppose at this point, if she is still alive, she could well be anywhere.Nemo said:Do they think she's hiding in the beer cellar or something?
Even weston super mare (at least presuming the mindset of the person who posted the 'help find' poster i saw t'other day.
Abducting a child to weston super mare is a special kind of evil.
because little girl from nice middle england family sells more papers than another days carnage in iraq or the standards of food in tescoes.Kanda said:Some also might think there might be more encompassing, pressing issues that should be occupying the press.
1 child missing, thousands getting killed all over the world every day etc. It's typical media numbing and happens all the time
*devils advocate*
i don't think it qualifies as news really even though it's a terrible thing that's happened.
I do wonder how this particular incident of a child gone missing has become such a big story. Especially in lieu of an outcome (unlike the Bulger case).

These are madeleines.
Getting peoples hopes up like that, saying you had found them when in fact it was an entirely different cake based snack food. I hope you are ashamed!
Apologies, I should've realised using a Google search would be useless.

Hey, Dean Yager!
exactly, who gives a fuck about a board where the minority vent their frustration with the fucking grief factory which has gone into overdrive...

Small child in costume shop yesterday wandered around to the other side of the stacks where I was trying to find the right glasses for a party. Five minutes or so later, mother wanders round visibly anguished, grabs child by the hand and says
"it's not safe any more, bad people might take you - don't leave my sight"
What you only just realised the amazingly long odds on your child being snatched and have only now begun to keep an eye on your child
"It's not safe any more" It's not a fucking warzone
