We are now in a bad place globally on a financial level so why did the banks give loans to people with little or no credit? surely it was clear they couldnt pay the money back?

Mistakes!!, yes everyone makes mistakes I am in no way a perfect parent, I know my mistakes, I let him have food in return for peace and quiet I buy him things if I feel guilty for working so much, I shout at him when he has done nothing wrong im just irritable the list goes on but in no way shape or form ever on this earth would I have left him alone in this country or any other country at such a young age, please can all parents let me know if you are in agreement so we can get rid of this stigma that leaving children alone is a bad parenting mistake, that is not a mistake it is neglect and most parents have not done it!

I know we Americans obsess over news stories, too, but I mean come on! This seems to be all you Brits talk about and it's been going on for months. Is life that boring in England these days?

All kidding aside, I'd really like to understand the fascination, debate, angst, whatever, that is connected to this case. I just don't get it.

I have no opinion on her disappearance one way or the other until proved but I have just seen Maddy's parents interviewed on the news and I did not feel comfort.able with her Mothers body language. Anyone else see it and what do you think?

i know a lot of people don't rate this kind of thing but i found this article on briansdreams.com it was sent on the 13th july.i find it really weird.

This sent to you on 13th July 2007.

Last night I had a vision, in my vision I was taken to a house, fresh cement had been thrown in front of the Bedroom which is next to the Garage. At first I thought this is where Madeleine was buried. I then knew that I was wrong, the house is in the UK and this is the person that had a hand in the abduction of Madeleine. Could feel that Mrs. McCann knew this person, could be a female colleagues home, strong feeling of this. I was then taken to a Farm. Madeleine told me to look this is where she is and not to allow her parents to give up now (could not understand why she said this), we where in a Warehouse/Storage with wood / timber piles, the Owner was showing the Police around, but the Police couldn't find Madeleine. Upon exiting the Warehouse there is a little church on the property, which is used for passers by looking for shelter for the night, the Policeman looked in the window, the room was empty, could see a double bed and a statue of Virgin Mary, when they walked away I saw Madeleine under the blankets, she told me to look out the opposite window, could see dirt road with buildings, the building directly next door had a Red sign with white writing in a foreign language. We were then back in the warehouse and Madeleine was running in between the wood/timber piles, she was laughing and holding hands with a smaller girl (short brown hair). The owner is Portuguese. Madeleine told me that the Policeman at first will not find her, they must not give up this is where she is being held. She is still in Portugal

Putting aside the facts of the case ( ie they left their children on there own )
Can you not imagine for 1 second how it must feel to lose a child??
Can you not find it in your hearts to realise they made a mistake ( no parent is perfect )
And what would you be doing if your child went missing in another country?
Would you be sitting on your **** waiting for the phone to ring?
Or whould you be out there gaining publicity for your missing child?
Im quite shocked at the amount of questions im reading posted by people on this site ( naming no names ) who seem to forget that a child is missing
It seem hatred for her parents is overshadowing the fact that a Maddy is still missing?

Whats more important..............McCann bashing or praying that Maddy is found?

Gerry is asking for evidence from police relating to proof that she was dead.

Surely they ought to be realistic and expect all avenues to be followed rigorously within the investigation?

Police are under enough media pressure with all the speculation so why is he adding to it?

I appreciate you would prefer to believe your kid was alive but after all this time it seems less likely.

Lots of us who have not liked what the Mcanns have been doing, have been saying for weeks,
Gerry should drop his blog
The Mcanns should be more low-key
Start thinking of all missing children
They should be look at for Neglect
No more tours

And when I look at recent photo's of Gerry I think he looks terrified he knows he is close to being found out. Kate looks -scared to she knows he did it and she's being covering up for him.
Look at them on the Yahoo news page today.
Do you agree?

I really hope I can be proven wrong on this one. Only time will tell!

From here:

http://news.sky.com/skynews/article/0,,30000-1279391,00.html

"We don't read Portuguese and I think that's the first thing to say that we haven't read the accounts first hand. "

So Im guessing this statement from a month ago has kinda fallen by the wayside then? (and yes I know you cant learn a language in a month, but clearly they aren't even bothering anymore)

"Madeleine McCann's parents are learning Portuguese as they make plans for an indefinite stay in the country to continue the search for their daughter." Sky News - July 12.


"it felt very similar to dining in your garden and I know that - and if you've ever left a child for any length of time unattended whether it be you're downstairs and the child's upstairs or you're in the garage."

- How big is your house Gerry?? Drawing parallels to leaving your child downstairs and what you did that night?

whats every1s opion on Madeleine McCann atm...do u think she'll b found or that she is dead?

2007-08-09 22:48:51 · 14 answers · asked by ♥blonde moments needs help.. 4

Child abduction is ' massive' according to Maddies parents and what they are doing now with youtube and any other means will go to help search for missing cildren
Don't keep targeting them with your alterior motives
They have paid the price.
Good luck to them and all organisations that look to the positive to try and pick up the pieces of peoples lives.
Who knows it could be you or I who need help.
Let's hope it does not come to that.

They know they cannot release any evidence so this call is utterly ridiculous.

They should also know police cannot discuss all details of the investigation with them. Its against the law.

They said they knew that all avenues were being explored but when it gets reported they are being looked at they have a massive dummy spit. Why? It would be odd if police didn't explore all possible avenues - surely?

First the online store has not been working for ages.

The fundraising events has dwindled dramatically sans a few hanger-oners who are planning to release some balloons or bands who want to use the Madeleine cause to promote themselves, then donate only 33% of the proceeds to the fund and keep the rest for themselves.

Now Gerry has given up on his blog.

Its all going to rack and ruin. LOL.

Regardless of your opinion on the McCanns parenting skills or lack thereof - SHOULD THEY NOT BE THE FIRST PEOPLE TO BE INFORMED ABOUT THE INVESTIGATION INTO THEIR OWN CHILD'S DISAPPEARANCE?

From the BBC.
"Madeleine McCann's parents have called on police to tell them about evidence that reportedly contradicts the belief that their daughter was abducted.

In Portugal, press reports - attributed to police sources - say detectives believe she is dead. Publicly, police are refusing to comment on the reports."
This is ridiculous.

by the way.....I think people would think I was more an anti McCann.

Just interested on intelligent views about this.... not accusations and slating each other please.

I can recall I always believed Joanna Lees when lots were implying she had done away with her boyfriend and it turned out she was telling the truth, but this time around I think the McCanns appear to not be entirely telling the truth - whether or not that means they were involved I don't know but the dogs indicating a dead body was in the apartment is not a good sign.

On the news at Gmtv this morning interview with gerry and kate.

They will not be bullied into going home to Britain by a hate campaign going on. Robert Murats lawyer has told them to go and there is word that the Portuguese police are going to proscecute them for leaving their kids.
They have also started or are going to start a new site on You Tube for missing children

The Notorious Bush and like Americans always says that they can Isolate anyone around the world if their bloody interests are criticized.

But why dont they stupid people fail to understand that the world order is changing quickly and the ultimate result of Isolating themselves from the International community because of their propaganda policies?
