Yes, Kerry, but you and I are expat Yanks, and it makes a world of difference.

Over there, they scare 'em young now.

Yes, I am, Lapin. And like a typical American, I grew up surrounded by foreigners - three out of four grandparents - and speaking English and another language (Spanish).

expatinscotland · 03/07/2007 10:25

Yes, Kerry, I do think it's because stranger abduction really IS more common there, among both children and adults .

It's truly shocking the nubmer of women and children who are abudcted, raped and murdered there.

wannaBe · 03/07/2007 10:27

imo the artacle is rritten more negatively towards mn than the ad because no paper wants to be the first to write something negative about anything to do with the Mccanns. If you write it as "mothers complain" then it's still other people and not the media who are still on the side of the campaign etc etc.

suzywong · 03/07/2007 11:08

Well the man from Perth was very nice about us in the extra comments

VVVSzyslak · 03/07/2007 11:16

Can they pull quotes like that directly from threads without permission?????

TroyMcClure · 03/07/2007 11:16

yes adn HOORAH ofr it

BreeVanDerCamp · 03/07/2007 11:25

Well either they have been deluged by comments and sifting through them, or they are not posting e-mails seeking to redress the balance re the "selfish".

Debbiethemum · 03/07/2007 12:05

I emailed mycomment about 9:00 this morning and it has not appeared yet - but 'Algernon' lives near me so maybe they didn't want two posts from the same county.

Bartholomewgook · 03/07/2007 12:08

'those parents are being totaly selfish and selfcentered,i have a daughter and i sp[ent time talking and explianing about what happened to Madeleine.Yes my daughter got scared but i was there to resure her'

What's the fecking point of scaring your daughter?! What can she doooooooo about it?! NADA!!!

The mind boggles, it really does.

VVV "Can they pull quotes like that directly from threads without permission?????"

MN has copyright to everything we write on here, so the "lazy" journo should have asked MNHQ for permission.
Interesting that a Sunday Times journo was on here for a live chat yesterday. Probably passed on the word that we are all so rivetting to her daily colleagues.

KrustyTheClown · 03/07/2007 12:14

I agree with Troy. Exactomundo.

THese aren't private conversations ya know. And mumsnet will LOVE the publicity I'm sure.

Some other lazy ST bint (Shane something) was in the Style section on sunday with an article straight off MN - about crocs & fruitshoots, long bodeny hair vs no1 buzzes as class indicators etc. She did namecheck mn at least . Rachel Johnson clearly another mner from regular references.
