I have heard the phrase innocent until proven guilty yes but am entitled to my opinion as are you and will be more than prepared to eat my words if they are innocent but I doubt it.I don't mince words or sit on the fence that is just me

Our discussion of yesterday was quoted in today's Guardian.

You might like to bear this in mind.

Sympathy for beleaguered parents muted by jeers and suspicion

"On Mumsnet yesterday a furious debate erupted between those hidden behind online pseudonyms. "I do think the McCanns have acted somewhat oddly throughout this investigation - particularly the mother," commented Krazykoolkazza.

"I can't quite see it as natural for a mother in her position to make one of her immediate priorities in the days immediately following the disappearance of her daughter a visit to the Pope - without her remaining children.""

that is a good enough reason for me sometimes not to say it like you think it is

Re the Phenergan, we had it for our DD on repeat presription for a while (she has SN) to help her sleep

I was worried about giving it to her for more than a few weeks and the Neuro Surgeon said its no problem, he knows Doctors who give it to their perfectly healthy children..................

so its obviously a thing that people do

can't believe the comments on families who go on mark warner holidays - lots of differnet people go on these - we've only been on one - and we did feel uncofrtable with the 'childacre' everyday scenario so we go out of our way to find holidays without clubs now and the children often make friends aroundthe pool/beach anway. But back to the point of MW - which is that fairly sporty parents have the opportunity to go sailing and play tennis while thier chidlren do the same activities - my son actually thinks it was the best holiday he's ever been on - you dropp them off at 9.30 am and pick them up at 12ish for a 3 hour lunch and fmaily time togetehr and then back to afternoon club if you wish which lasts for a couple of hours - the problem was at the time we went on holiday - is that MW discouraged children at the evening meal so you were unusual if you kept your children up late with you - so they offered the listending service wehre mw nannies go round the varioud rooms evey half hour to listen for crying and would then fetch the parents immediatley - personally I felt uncomfortable with this so we ate earlier with our children..but almost EVERYONE used the listening service which is the equivalent to what the McCanns did. I faind it totally wrong that there are implied comments that they didn't spend as much time with their children as they should have done.

Its just a break for them and god knows they must have needed one with young twins and a toddler - it just went gone horribly wrong for them. They ob prcatically couldn't have done it - surrounded by firends/mw guests and then a huge media circus thereafter - its ridiculous.

fawkeoff · 08/09/2007 09:17

OMFG!!!

LucyJones · 08/09/2007 09:17

agree with virgo - you know kids actually sometimes have fun at these holiday schemes

morningpaper · 08/09/2007 09:18

Yes I'm sure the babies and children who have been crying for 29 minutes since they were last "checked" on have a wonderful time

ArguidaCod · 08/09/2007 09:19

who cares
one of hteir mates had ot go back to their aprtment as their kdi was vomiting fgs

pirategirl · 08/09/2007 09:20

I was alarmed to hear justnow on the news, that becuase portugal is a sovereign state, that it's almst enclosed in the way it does things.

eg, the british government can't get involved, we can't do anything about the investigation.

Yet we can go and take troops into other countries.

I don't understand, Kate and Gerry must feel so trapped in the system there now.

virgo · 08/09/2007 09:20

and my spelling Cod - see thickies go on MW holidays too - wondering why we felt out of place and I had even bought a boden swimming cossie.

ArguidaCod · 08/09/2007 09:20

er most countried are sovereign states

TellusMater · 08/09/2007 09:21

Isn't that true of the UK as well?

fawkeoff · 08/09/2007 09:23

are they not guilty for leaving their children in a room unattended on their own for up to an hour and a half???? there is a woman being charged with murder because her dog mauled her grandaughter to death, why are the mcanns not being charged for neglect anyway????

LucyJones · 08/09/2007 09:26

I thought they checked every half an hour?

debgronow · 08/09/2007 09:27

re the doctor who went back to his vomiting kid, he left them to come back to the bar.........
responsible parenting ???
