To think that Denise Fergus should have stayed at home?

I don't understand why she (mum of Jamie Bulger) had to go and sit in court when John Venables was being sentenced for his more recent crime. I will never forget the horror of hearing what happened to her little boy, and I know that she will never get over it - but how can it possibly help her to keep appearing on tv and making statements about what happens now? She seems to feel she has a right to be told all about everything, and while I can sympathise with her opinion to a certain extent I don't know that she does really. I saw her being interviewed when he was arrested earlier in the year and she said she'd had to keep her children off school because of the publicity - but she seems to be generating a lot of it herself.
Please don't think me hard hearted, it's just that I don't get it.

Hello all
Further to lots of inbox action and a couple of requests from the OP to delete this thread just to let you know where we are.

We're going to move this thread from AIBU to In the News just now as we think that some of the arguments here are important and valid but that the AIBU slant is causing unnecessary aggro.

We don't of course tolerate personal attacks so do continue to report any that you see.

Thanks

MN Towers

I have made the wrong call on this one sorry.
So will be moving this thread back into AIBU.

We'd like to remind all posters of the Mumsnet
philosophy, namely to make parents' lives easier.
We are keeping a very close eye on this thread though.
Thanks MN towers
