When will the online persecution of the McCanns end?

[Eleanor]

Why are you so interested in every detail of the life of a woman who, as far as I know you have never met and who, as far as I know neither knows or cares of your existence or who has ever done you any harm?

If Kate had a job they would be saying that she had abandoned them and didn't care.  We can't win this one.  Or any of the other gross misinterpretations of the lives of people that are none of their business.

Not that I personally have a need to win anything.  I am probably one of the worst parents that ever walked the face of the earth.  And somehow managed to drag up three of the most well balanced people I know.

One Two One Degree.  One HND in Electronics and one Qualified Acupuncturist.  And all without any assistance from me.  Mind you, I did bog them all off to Boarding School at the first opportunity.

The Media would have field day with me and my parenting.  I often laugh myself.

Another book? When the public's only interest in the McCanns is through their daughter what else can you write? Or are you trying to suggest that the public's interest in Kate's literary efforts are anything other than prurient?

I am suggesting that Kate McCann is a best selling author and that people continue to be fascinated by this case.  I have absolutely no doubt whatsoever that should she choose to write another book about the case, or update her previous book, or even write a warts and all biography of her chief tormentor(s) that you for one would be first in the queue at Waterstones.

To help fund the litigation that she and her husband seem so fond of? Also perhaps it would not look quite so hypocritical when soliciting funds from the public via the donate button on their website that Kate actually made an attempt to contribute herself?

I believe that's exactly what Kerry Needham did.

So what do you want them to do?

[Eleanor]

And why do you seek to defend a woman you have never met and can have no idea what motivates her?

It's called, "Innocent Until Proven Guilty."

Wouldn't that be dining out on her daughter's disappearance? Do you really think the public would have any interest in Kate's writings if she had not lost her daughter?

In your opinion.

I suspect that "Prurient" might be Libellous.  So have care, if you please.

This is true.  Miss an opportunity to tear any future book to pieces?  No chance.

BINGO - that could be her next book title

Did I say or even suggest that the public would have any interest in Kate's writings if she hadn't lost her daughter?  And - wasn't it you complaining that Kate wasn't working in order to pay for litigation, so what would be wrong with her writing another book to fund it?  What is it you actually want the woman to do?  Perhaps we could raise enough signatures on a petition to force her to do it.  Dinner lady perhaps?  What would you choose to make her do, that would satisfy your burning need to see Kate McCann back in gainful employment?

Perhaps not.  But would you?

Good one.

What do you think Amaral will call his next book?  If he has the brass neck to write one.

I don't think Kate would make a very good Bar Maid.  Although I made a bomb at that.  School Fees, you know.

How about " He who laughs last"  ?  or " The Reckoning"

There'd be nothing wrong with her writing another book, where did I say there would be? In fact I'd be all for it as perhaps the money she would earn  from it may help to pay the whooping litigation bill they may incur if they loose their appeal to the SC and would leave the fund to find their daughter a little richer.

[faithlilly]

Perhaps not.  But would you?

Not in the slightest.
