Crimewatch - Madeleine McCann

[minestrone]

No, it isn't. It's called understanding that parents make mistakes, some big ones. This is a big one. However, they chose this. I am in no way insecure about how I bring my kids up. I do it, it's a hard job, and we have some inviolates. However, I know I would never, knowingly, leave my kids in a situation which could lead to them being kidnapped. The Mcanns made a conscious decision to leave their kids alone, and go to a restaurant 15 mins away to dance, drink and eat. They left the door open too, which I guess was a mistake. However, there is no mistake here, their actions, in deciding to leave them alone, led to the kids abduction. No one can seriously refute that.

"I am better than the McCanns, I would never do that" yadda yadda

You are all insecure as those kids would have had the perfect life with the perfect parents, perfect schools and your kids would never compare if they were side by side, now you get to have one over on them and you lot all love it

"hang them, it makes me feel better about my family's failures!"

That is exactly what Boris was saying and that is what you are doing.

No, ffs, what don't you get? They chose to enjoy themselves over the safety of their kids; no parent should put enjoying themselves over their kids safety. When we go out, we arrange someone we trust to look after the kids. The doors are locked and we go out. If we cant get people over to look after the kids, we don't go out. What is so very hard to conceptualise about this? We have a local pub about 15 minutes walk away and I'd never think it ok we could leave the kids there and simply potter up the road and throw a few down our necks and nor should any reasonably sane, intelligent parent.

You are so wonderful and so responsible and you just want to tell yourself and the rest of the world just how wonderful you are by comparing yourself to those awful Mcanns. As far as you are concerned this is what the Mcann situation means to you?
It is simply about you distancing yourself from the Mcanns and hiding your own failures as a parent.

No, it's nowhere near what we are doing, or what I am doing. I simply would never do that. I am not just saying it because they did, why would I want to make myself feel better than them? You're telling me they would have had the perfect lives but the truth is, through their, the Mcanns neglect, the kids didn't get the perfect life did they? One was abducted, and the other two live under the shadow of that, for the rest of their lives. My kids have what I consider the perfect life. I, like most parents, wouldn't compare them to other kids as I like them more than other kids and always will, for they're my kids.

Jesus, I can't believe some of the tulip some of you are coming out with. All people are saying, is that they have to have some kind of blame, for it wouldn't have happened if they'd not neglected the kids.

Eh? Seriously eh?

I brought my kids into this world. I feel, strongly, very strongly, that what happens to them is guided by my actions as a parent (with my wife). I owe them this, as I made the decision that they are here, not them. The Mcanns failed as parents, in my eyes, for they did something I couldn't imagine a sane person doing. The only distancing I am doing, is that. I haven't failed on my parenting, I am extremely happy with the way my kids are growing up.

The Mcanns failed their kids, especially one of them, and the others through the fall out. You know this don't you?

This has got to be trolling. Got to be…

Well why do you keep saying 'My Kids', 3 times in the last 2 posts and I think you would count up lots more if you went back through the thread. You are constantly comparing your family with the McCann family, constantly, you have a real need to make out you are different and that is because you are better at raising a family. That is insecurity, nothing less, you want you feel better than them as this is the only chance you will get over them.

Your kids probably go to the local state school and do alright, they get treated well and decent presents but nothing like the McCanns would have given their kids everything because they have great jobs and earn vastly more than you ever could. That pisses you off, I can see it, others can see it but you can't because you cannot let yourself call your kids failures. It annoys you and this is your way of dealing with a failure family.

You're a troll, and for that reason, I am out.

The Mcanns failed. The key element to your idiocy, is would have given their kids everything. Due to their fault, they don't get that chance now. Jeez you're a clown.

I'm not entertaining the rest of your tulip an answer.

Oh, he got better....

Ah yes. This from the muppet who said he would happily do what the McCann's did. Leave their kids at the mercy of nonces while they go off drinking.

Scum does not even begin to describe you. In fact, the only suitable description of you is Recruitment Agent.

People like you who can't be bothered to look after kids need to be castrated. Physically. With no anaesthetic. publicly. For starters.
