number 1 is awful and number 2 is just plain wrong:( 1st is about Marie Brown second is about a case of child abuse (just so you know before you read it).. i really dont know what to say about either of them... except the man lived across from an intermediate:( I dont think they should have said that as it will be obvious which one and will leave the poor sister and niece who live there in line for serious abuse:( and number 2 how does she live with herself:(

i read that second one. I remember when the case came out. i had just started high school i think and this really effected me. I was really gutted by the whole thing and had the article from the sunday newspaper that I kept for ages. in fact, i'm pretty sure Idid my third form speech on child abuse because of the inital incident.

Glad to see cyfs getting involved early, but it breaks my heart when my dearest freiends can't get pregnant and are now looking at adopting, while people like this can breed at will and treat the result with the same respect you would for ...well, not even animals are treated like that.

ah, ratn over.
