look if anyone harmed my children i would need restrained and medicated to prevent me ripping their fucking arms off

once i calmed down i would have to abide by statutory laws and procedures

It horrifies me that she worked at a nursery for children 2years+. They are all old enough to have some idea of what happened.
I truely hope that those poor innocents never remember what happened to them.

She should be put away never to be let out. I dont wish her harm just that she never has the opportunity to harm another beautiful little child ever again. And the man she was working with.

Thanks SM, thats exactly what Ive meant, just not worded it properly. And Mintyy, Ive never been rude, and can be argued with, I have already apologised for offence caused.

scottishmummy · 10/06/2009 20:30

ron with sensitive child directed work there is potential for recovery and full fulfilling life

therapy
affirmative parents
support

yappybluedog · 10/06/2009 20:53

her husband & daughters have also been charged with 'child pornography-related offences'

beanieb · 10/06/2009 20:55

The reality is that most of the kids (from what I can see) are young enough for it not to have a huge effect on the rest of their lives.

The parents however should be given counselling and advice on the best way to handle the possible effects on their children without allowing the effect on themselves as knowing and appalled adults to have a detrimental effect on their children's futures. It's such a tough one to deal with and I really hope these parents are given all the help and support they need.

Bloody hell, her family too? Horrible.

Scottishmummy, I do hope you are right and that the children and parents in this case get all the support they need.

scottishmummy · 10/06/2009 20:58

edam,it is tough harrowing therapy but families can and do heal

poopscoop · 10/06/2009 20:59

the daughters have been charged too?? Oh surely not. This is getting worse by the minute. I thought they were young teens themselves?

beanieb · 10/06/2009 21:00

is there a source for the story about the daughters?

poshwellies · 10/06/2009 21:00

Not atall surprised that her husband wasn't involved,but quite shocked that her teenage daughters are,although I presume that they have also been abused throughout their life.

Very sad all around.

ronshar · 10/06/2009 21:00

That makes sense SM.
My dd2 was at nursery today and it just made me want to vomit.

edam · 10/06/2009 21:02

Glad to hear it, Scottishmummy. Thanks for offering something positive in the middle of this terrible situation.

scottishmummy · 10/06/2009 21:03

balanced people are amazingly resilient,children are too

human nature can over come adversity,abuse,war,genocide,by no means am i saying it is easy - it isnt

BUT love support and allowong time to grive and heal can repair

poopscoop · 10/06/2009 21:03

i have looked on sky news about the daughters - nothing on there yet and they are usually quick off the mark.

beanieb · 10/06/2009 21:04

Yappybluedog do you have a source for the story about her daughters?

poshwellies · 10/06/2009 21:07

I can't find anything online that states that the husband and daughters have been charged.

BettyTurnip · 10/06/2009 21:07

How old are her children FGS?

beanieb · 10/06/2009 21:10

The daughters are mentioned in the Daily mail but nothing to say they have been charged. I think unless there is a credible source it's a bit silly to assume anything about her own family. They may well need counselling themselves, rather than condemnation.

pagwatch · 10/06/2009 21:11

beanieb
FWIW I remember my abuse from probably about 2 years old and i could tell you what room we were in, what I could hear etc etc.

I think the long term abuse did the most damage but even early years can have huge impact. My 'younger' memories are the hardest ones.

Not arguing with you - just think it is easy for everyone to assume that young kids will forget etc. Just sayingthat is not my experience

myredcardigan · 10/06/2009 21:12

Is that husband/daughter post a random trolling? I can't see anything on the news websites.

poopscoop · 10/06/2009 21:13

aah it could be myred - very sick if it is. will search the poster

poshwellies · 10/06/2009 21:13

Very much agree pag.

poopscoop · 10/06/2009 21:15

yappy has been around a while and posted so hopefully she will come back and let us know where she saw it reported.

yappybluedog · 10/06/2009 21:15
