I have joined this site solely to remind all you thoughtless, forgetful, selfish ba#@ards that Madeleine McCann is missing!!!!!!!! I cannot understand how anyone can sit with their arms around their own children, in the comfort of a cinema whilst feeding their children popcorn and Coke that there are lots of mothers in this world who cannot do this. Their children have been taken from them and I wonder if any of you had the money or the resources available to them, I wonder if you would have campaigned this long or this hard for their daughters return. I wish the McCanns every success and only wish I could physically find their daughter for them. I am taking my 6 kids to see Shrek tomorrow and I hope my cinema is still showing the Madeleine film. I hope the publicity generated stays in your faces for a long time to come. Tell me, if she passed in front of you down at the shops or at the park could any of you be bothered to actually tell someone. Or are you all just to happy in the knowledge that its not one of your children. There but for the grace of God............

oh great haychee has found this one to soput her views all over without listeing to others.

haychee · 04/07/2007 14:40

I do listen to others and i have learnt that not all kids react to this kind of topic the same as mine!
So up yours choccy cake!
Still dont think it should be withdrwan from the cinema though

Piffle · 04/07/2007 14:41

anyone know when the Boden sale is starting?

superchoccycake · 04/07/2007 14:42

its not being withdrawn from the cinema totally is it. its being withdrawn from kids and family films.

so up your bum!

meandmyflyingmachine · 04/07/2007 14:43

Up yours!

PMSL

SueBaroo · 04/07/2007 14:43

It's been restricted to older age-group films, and quite right too.

haychee · 04/07/2007 14:44

That is all i wanted to say, i dont agree with it being withdrawn from the cinema but you lot dont want to listen to a different opinion from your own. The reaction i got here was not what i call a discussion more like a row!

LowFatMilkshake · 04/07/2007 14:46

Ooh I got a great Boden outfit for DS from our local 2nd hand shop, green and blue striped hooded top with green shorts. Bargain!

superchoccycake · 04/07/2007 14:46

oh come on haychee, you have insulted our parenting methods without knowing a thing about us.

what did u expect when you did that?

madamez · 04/07/2007 14:46

I don't give a flying fuck about kid I never met. WHy should I? Millinos of kids die every day all over the world, not my problem. Just becasue one missing kid is photogenic doesn't make it any more interesting to me than all the other dead or missing kids I didn't know.

meandmyflyingmachine · 04/07/2007 14:47

I think you are misunderstanding the purpose of a discussion forum.

You post your opinion. People either agree or, crucially, disagree. We don't just listen in silence.

expatinscotland · 04/07/2007 14:47

are you related to margaret thatcher, madamez?

LowFatMilkshake · 04/07/2007 14:47

Ooh Madamez - you are a bit strong there and I dont think it's really necessary -

groundhog day anyone...

elesbells · 04/07/2007 15:04

haychee. FOR GODS SAKE! I DO NOT OBJECT TO THE AD BEING SHOWN, ONLY TO IT BEING SHOWN BEFORE A CHILDS MOVIE. THE WORDING IN THE AD WAS THAT SHE WAS SNATCHED FROM HER BED (AND NO-ONE KNOWS IF THIS IS TRUE, BUT THAT IS ANOTHER STORY) THAT, IS WHAT THE OBJECTION WAS ABOUT...THE WORDING! DO YOU NOT GET IT?

DID YOU TELL YOUR CHILD THAT SHE WAS SNATCHED FROM HER BED? I WOULDNT TELL MINE, THAT IS MY RIGHT AS A PARENT.

YOU COME ON HERE AND SPOUT OUT YOUR MORONIC VIEWS ABOUT HOW WE SHOULD TELL OUR CHILDREN THIS AND THAT. ITS NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS HOW OTHERS CHOOSE TO BRING UP THEIR CHILDREN.

YOU OBVIOUSLY HAVE NOTHING BETTER TO DO...SO TRIP TRAP BACK OVER YOUR BRIDGE, THERES A LOVE.

Ohh a spin off like CSI...is this the Miami and the other one Vegas

Originally I thought the parents who complained about this were being a bit wet tbh as it would not disturb my children.

I have to say I agree now this should not have been shown before a U certificate film but if your child can cope with a PG film then they should be able to cope with this advert.

Rhubob · 04/07/2007 15:08

ooh hello
you all still here

haychee · 04/07/2007 15:15

ELSEBELLS
my comments are not directed at those parents who have told their children something about madeliene. My comments are aimed at those who think they can hide all of it from their kids!
So get your story straight before you attack me! If you had read my messages thoroughly you would see that i am sympathetic for those parents who have easily upset kids, i can niw understand that the wording is wrong. In my case the wording would not upset my children but i can now see that for some it would.
Its just ATTACK ATTACK ATTACK on here! Is no one allowed to disagree from time to time?

SueBaroo · 04/07/2007 15:19

it's parents wot are like me that Haychee objects to

haychee · 04/07/2007 15:20

exactly!

biddzy01 · 04/07/2007 15:21

Haychee I totally agree with you and when I expressed my opinion on here yesterday well you can guess what the reaction was by these narrow minded people.

I would just like to ask all you people who love there children so much and wrap them in cotton wool Where are your children whilst you are sitting on here all day and evening? probably plonked in front of cbeebies.

SueBaroo · 04/07/2007 15:23

Actually they're sitting at the table doing their workbook, and the littlest ones are having their nap.

It is remarkable, you know, this uncanny ability to do more than one thing at a time...
