So Kate and Gerry are in Brussels today to lecture Europe on how to implement...

[dave s]

...more child safety measures? What will happen if the politicians turn around to them and say that the first step in preventing children from being taken is having parents take basic parental care of their children.
God I'd love to be a politican in Brussels right now. I'd have Kate in tears by the time I pointed out a few home truths to her.
blu eyes - Where your argument falls down is that Kate and Gerry have refused to admit that what they did that night constituted child neglect. As long as they are in denial that what they did was wrong, then they are in no position to lecture others.

Here Here!!!! Well said, pat yourself on the back!!!!!


Rule 1.
Dont go out and leave your children home alone.

 

[BethX]

I am personally insulted as a parent that these two people are lecturing on child safety.

I would NEVER leave my 3 year old daughter unattended while I went out for a 'boozy meal'.

 

[SamlIlAm]

Here's a home truth or two for you Davey - Not only is your head so gargantuan that it has it's own gravitational pull, It's also so full of shite that your eyes have turned brown and everything you say fu cking stinks.

Jesus H Christ, please just stop.

 

[Melia]

shocked at that.

Just not right that they would be even included.

no-one should leave their kids alone like that, not right or proper parenting and is selfish. To go out and leave your young kids like that while you having a lovely time eating and drinking.

If that was a single mum doing a good job under harder circumstances would be arrested but because they are doctors etc a different story.

I just feel so sorry for that poor little girl and what she must have gone through.

Am fed up of hearing about them parents now as lots of other kids missing and get no public attention.

 

[blu eyes]

Yeah we could all say how pathetic is that but think about it. If you want anyone to give a talk on something who better than two who made such a big mistake?

If young tearaways were to be given a talk on the downside to a criminal lifestyle for example, it wouldn't make much sense for them to get a lecture from some law abiding citizen but they may take more notice of a criminal who has experienced prison etc.

 

[Barbie V]

oh boy would I like to be a fly on the wall - how dare they preach what they dont practise

 

[Scuz]

i know i actually agree with you, pot and kettle spring to mind? How on earth can the mccann's lecture other parents on child safety? If they had basic parental care of their children they would be in this position they are in....

 

[Duirmuid]

I would imagine that a good few politicians will be thinking that and I would like one of them to actually come out and say that straight and undiluted. Might get my vote and many others.

Its about time that somebody in Authority had the bloody balls to call time on this couple once and for all.

 

[Missy H]

Do you really think any of them have the balls to do that to Saint McCann?

 

[Navi]

Hi Dave, not a lover of some of your posed questions but this is something that needs to be stated, not just with McCanns but nationally. Please don't go down the avenue of 17pdr who has posed 444 questions on the McCanns, out of a total 663 questions asked.

 

[Trixarella]

I hope one of these politiatians does say something to these two jumped up idiots.

They have gone there to talk about how countries can communicate when a child goes missing. Their child would not be missing if they had not left her alone.

I am sick to the back teeth of seeing these two on the news ramming it down peoples throats about thier child and trying to make themselves look like great people.

If I or one of my friends had gone out for a meal and left our children at home BY THEIR SELF we would be locked up and the children would be long gone with a social worker and placed into care. People would spit at us in the street (if we got to walk on a street again).

What has made the McCanns so special?

I only hope they find Maddie and then give her to a family who can responsibly take care her, and her siblings too.
