Maddie Mccann fund?

I suspect they will keep the money and say its for the twins future without Maddy.

its more than that its like 2.5 million now. i understand where your coming from. like that other little boy 16 years ago named ben who was thought to have been taken off the beach by gypsies and never been found his parents still look having to remortgage their house many times to stay over there - wheres the 2.5 million pounds been raised for them? as upsetting as it is it sounds to me that the mcCanns where more irresposible yet have more support.

Yer your right, what about all the other kids. There should be a fund for all the missing children.

Agree with you. There are thousands of kids that go missing, many of them whose parents really would not have the money to go off into the sunset to find them. You are not gonna jet around the world and by chance find her are you? Its terrible what has happened, but the parents of Maddie should be at home looking after their other kids. You could spend your whole life looking, and they stil have their twins to think about. They have taken the wrong approach, and have lost alot of public support because of it. We do care about maddie, we just don't want to finance them jetting off all over the world. I cannot believe that until now, they still have not broken down hysterical. I would be in absolute bits, but clinging to the 2 kids i have at home who need me. How is this all affecting them?

the whole thing is weird weird weird ... and gets more so. where is that child??? who are the suspects??? are any properties being searched??? as for the money, there will always be people who will give money for causes, especially to find a child, even if it's dodgy (and I'm not saying the mccann fund is dodgy). as for other missing children ... I'm afraid, sad as it is, that's the way things go. The controversies around this particular spectacular case may exhaust the public interest in child abductions for a very long time.

I think it is great that so many have come foreword to a cause but wouldn't it be even nicer if this fund were set up to help all the families that also have children missing .

seems strange that by setting up this fund the McCanns predicted that the child would not be found in the near future

Not really i mean how many children go missing every year and there all unaccounted for.... But they post a "innocent face" all of the news and money comes pouring in how many of you want to bet if this had been anything other than a white blond haired blue eyed girl they would not have had the same response if lets say the child was of a ethnic origin. Don't get me wrong i want her found and i sympathise with the cause but they make a effort to find one child and ignore the thousands that go missing every year.

Perhaps if the other missing kids parents were professionals like the mccann's maybe then they would get the same attention. I think it's very unfair that the other missing kids got thrown on the sideline, don't get me wrong I want Madeleine to be found but the fact remains that her parents are at fault for her disappearance and they have not been held accountable for their actions. instead they've become celebrities. I also think Kate and Gerry have a very good idea of what took place that night and are not letting on...their stories are too contridicting.
