Police are saying the 2 little girls have been murdered. Im soo upset, even though they have been missing for 12 days everyone was so sure they were alive. I feel so sorry for their parents.

I've sat watching all the news channels all morning. Even though the sun is shining it is a dark, sad day, especially as they have arrested the caretaker and his girlfriend.

My thoughts are with their parents too.

i know what you mean. i can't imagine what they're going through but i also know what i'd be feeling like if someone ever took charlie from me. to be honest being a mother changes you completely, before he was born i would have felt terribly sad an all but now i feel angry and a bit afraid that this is the world my child is growing up in. i'm eternally grateful for him and he means the world to us but being a parent means you love this person much more than you can imagine. in all honesty if anyone ever hurt him i'd cross the earth to find them and hurt them too.
sorry feeling a bit emotional.

It is just so awful, I have two young children and just cannot imagine how their parents must feel. There worlds must just stop. How could you carry on, after something like that happening to you? Did either of the parents have any other children? I think that would be the only thing that could possibly keep you going.

I just cant possibly imagine how they are feeling at the minute and like Lo said, its a sad day and one im sure we'll all remember for a long time - for all the wrong reasons. I cant wait to start a family with Mark but sometimes i wonder if its fair to bring a child into this world when such terrible things happen. I suppose we just have to try our hardest to protect them form these people and hope to God we are never in the position of these poor parents are today.

My thoughts are with all those involved

Emma, the two people who were voluntarily speaking to the police yesterday are now under arrest - hes suspected of abduction and murder and her of murder too. They are searching their house and have found some 'significant and interesting' things and they are now also searching his dads house.

They still havent found the little girls but i think most people have prepared themselves for the worst - its just awful.

it must be awful for their poor families

thanks paula, thats is so awful , and well words fail me as to what to say about these people , and a women involved too,

Its shocking isnt it. And like you say, everyone always assumes its only a man or men involved and i think thats making this seem that bit harder to take. Women are meant to have this maternal instinct and suddenly one is arrested over the suspected murder of two beautiful, innocent little girls - like you, words fail me and i cant imagine why they would have done something like this

Alaina · #11 (**permalink**) 17-08-2002, 11:25 AM

Apparently, they have just found the bodies of two children. Member of the public found them nr a river (I think)
Police haven't said if they are two girls or not.

The people who did this should be put in prison for a very long time! I think its so sad what has happened, and that Millie Dowler girl is still missing after almost 3 months. How can some people be so cruel to innocent children?

#13 (**permalink**) 17-08-2002, 12:25 PM

God knows whats going through the parents heads now that the news of these bodies being found has come out - its doesnt bear thinking about.

Valentina, i live 10 minutes from where Millie Dowler went missing and everyone still feels terrible about it and its almost 5/6 months shes been missing i think - its just awful. Why do people do this type of thing?

valentina · #14 (**permalink**) 17-08-2002, 12:34 PM

Has it really been that long since Millie dissapeared? It doesnt seem that long. Its awful that it has gone on for so long, I really hope they solve it soon, can u imagine how her parents feel not knowing for such a long time?

nikki · #15 (**permalink**) 17-08-2002, 01:13 PM

It's a terrifying world we live in isn't it? How can parents cope with letting kids out of their sight? This is the most horrible thing and it's not looking good - they aren't going to be two OTHER bodies are they?

The involvement of the woman gets me - paedophiles are very ILL people who can't see what they do as wrong, even though they know it is. But a girlfriend helping out????

It is sick, and whats sicker is they both worked at the school the girls went to. That just makes u think u dont know who is in school with your children!

all i can say is ihope that they didn't suffer too much. and that they rest in peace

Jacqui · #19 (**permalink**) 18-08-2002, 08:27 AM

This is just heart breaking. I don't have any kids as yet but all the same I feel so angry and sad at the same time. I understand what some of you are saying that it seems all the more weird when a woman is involved - I feel more angry towards her if that is possible. how dare anyone do such a thing towards anyone and even more so two innocent little children. i am so frighten to bring kids into this world. i know I am going to be so protective - even overly protective.

And if we are all feeling this way, you just cannot comprehend what it must be like for their parents. there are too many questions as to why, how could they, etc that will never be answered - not sufficiently anyway.

If nothing else, please can we all learn something from this, to look out for children, don't be frighten to be seen a interfering if you suspect something wrong is going. Put a child, regardless if you know it or not, before any embarrisment that you fear you will feel if you are in the wrong. Be there to protect children as you would like yours to be protected. And from this example hopefully our children will learn to do the same when they are adults.

May the little children rest in peace and may God help their parents every day to cope with the knowledge that nothing more will ever harm them again.

Everyone has been touched by this haven't they? It kind of puts all of our worries into perspective.

I hope that the people who did this get strung up, sick nasty disgusting people. God knows what those parents are going through, they will be affected by this for the rest of their lives.

Sometimes I really do think that this country should bring back the death penalty

Why on earth would someone murder those two little girls? What would drive them to it? They must have done it together, and then she sat there during an interview with the police for the TV and said she wanted them to be bridesmaids at her wedding knowing what her boyfriend and her had done?

Makes you hold your kids closer doesnt it.

Sorry for ranting, I feel so emotional about this

roz · #21 (**permalink**) 18-08-2002, 02:05 PM

It is a terrible shame and I keep crying! You just don't really know what to think do you?

But we do not live in a terrible world, things like this are extremely rare, which is why it makes the news and touches us all so deeply.

The kids had great lives and had a level of independence which they would have loved.

All we can hope is that they weren't too scared or hurt at any point.

Hugs for all you Mums out there, it must get you in your guts!
