I was watching the news last night re Kate McCanns requestioning by the Portuguese Police. I have updated on the events this morning and it appears she will be declared as a SUSPECT today. Im shocked about this, what do you all think? Surely she didnt have anything to do with it?

to me they have never really looked 'upset' like when you see other parents who have lost children. they have always looked 'cold' and when a couple go through such a traumatic experience it normally drives them apart however they always seem very loving to one another. just not 'right' somehow

Wouldnt you be pissed if you'd been questioned for 11hrs and then brought in the nxt day as an official susupect. She may seem odd but dont you think shes mourning a missing child.. All she wants is her children together safely

There are probably many facts relating to this case that will never enter the public domain so we could speculate indefinitely about possibilities.
I hope with these latest developments people do not forget the most basic yet profound fact of this situation and that is that a little girl is missing, an innocent 4 year old. I think of her when I look at my own dc, and remember her in my prayers. I hope others do the same and leave off the rubber-necking.

I agree kerrykatona, can´t see how or when they could have killed her child.

I dunnow dg I don't think yu can ever really know. plus they do say something like this usually has one of two effects, either drives them apart or brings them closer. there has been a lot of speculation in the press about the state of their marriage recently, although quite how the press comes by this info is always a mystery, but given the public attention this case received, I guess they would have to show a united front, even if onlly for the media.

pinkbubble · 07/09/2007 23:51

I agree, MMJ. I for one cant believe that these parents have anything to do with the disappearance of little Maddie.

In life there are many things you will never know. Sometimes, this is saddening. This is one of those times.

Why can't people just acknowledge that?

chikenmother · 07/09/2007 23:52

They are suspicious about her, not certain. If there were strong evidence they should have been arrested and they didn´t. But PJ must be very suspicious about them considering the media impact, I don´t think they woukd risk suck a great mistake if they were doubtful.

expatinscotland, you are right. But a 4 year old is missing. It is frightening to admit little girls can go missing with no explanation or good reason. Terrifying.

dellgirl13 · 07/09/2007 23:59

i really am going now but just to all you out there who are adament they are innocent: a child of 3 who lived nearby was killed by her father as her mum and sister slept upstairs. people who knew him said he was such a nice man and loved his littled girl so much. its sad but it happens lets just keep an open mind for now

expatinscotland · 08/09/2007 00:02

Sometimes, there is no explanation. Even if the person is found, dead or alive, you never know why.

What is so tragic about the latest generation is that there seems to be no room for that.

There must be a tangible reason why, who, how, etc.

And this leads to much nastiness and even more disappointment and sadness.

The girl is missing. We can speculate from now until the world ends and even if she is found, dead or alive, there will probably be no full explanation.

And still one must go on living.

How ill-prepared so many are for such in life.

It's like how people are brought up today expecting to be entertained, and when they are not there is no end to problems. Because somewhere down the line they never learned how boring this life can be if you do not put the effort into it.

No imagination, no spirituality, no creativity, no personal or social responsibility is no way to go through life, which never has any guarantees.

My 4-year-old says to me 'It's not fair.'

The sooner she learns this, the better, IMO.

expatinscotland · 08/09/2007 00:06

Did anyone ever stop to think, for just one minute, that perhaps the McCann's 'lack of emotion' is because they have this spirituality in their lives?

This other sense?

That it's not bloody fair but nothing is and that there is a place they can go to deal with that? A very private place, a place some consider imaginary, but which is very real to them.

People make mistakes.

Fortunately, I made big ones in my youth and learned from them before I made one that involved my children. But this was my luck.

Not so for everyone.
