Geoff_Tipps Posted October 6, 2013 Author Share Posted October 6, 2013 Happy days, can't imagine how horrible a feeling that would be for a parent. Link to comment
daytripping Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 Great she was found safe and well but when I saw it all over the internet and saw how little time she'd been missing my first thought was fucks sake give her a break, it was way too early to ring the alarm bell, two hours is nothing for a kid that age, down the park or playing at a mates house, was far too early to go into facebook hysteria mode, changed days and better safe than sorry but the people who were over worrying about her just made me think fuck sake, they love a drama. They'll be 8 years old in Tilly or Torry that would have been away from their folks from breakfast till dusk today, no one would notice they were missing till they never turned up at school tomorrow, a Hazlehead kid does the same for a fraction of the time and internet World turns into a wild goosechase.

daytripping Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 Sorry Geoff, not having a go at you but maybe a 8 year old with a pink top, blue jeans and blonde hair is missing would be better, I read loads of stuff since she was missing and was still none the wiser what she looked like or what she was wearing, just people saying god pray for her, blah blah...... Me stopping every kid that age I saw would have seen me arrested. Rant over. The main thing is she's safe and no doubt sleeping. Link to comment
Henry Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 Agree with you there Daytripping.Similar thing up here at the weekend. It's a chance for folk to share and re-tweet and all that bollocks to show how worried they are. Link to comment
Guest Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 Faux concern = look what a nice person I am for caring about someone I don't know. 9 year old going missing on their own = shite single mother. Link to comment
tup Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 It's easy to keep tabs on your kids, even when you are steaming, as I can testify after Saturday. Link to comment
Bluto10 Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 9 year old going missing on their own = shite single mother. or remember the story of the young girl from newcastle; in the early 90s i think. left her grannies home late a night to walk home never to be seen again. well untill her body turned up in an abandoned warehouse taht is. mistakes happen but lot of the time they can easily be prevented by decent sensible parentin Link to comment
Foster14 Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 I used to go to the swimming pool without parents/adults in tow when I was 9. Took my younger sister as well. I guess that ain't too acceptable nowadays though... Link to comment

I guess that ain't too acceptable nowadays though...At my nieces primary school there are primary 7's who still get dropped off and picked up by their mothers. When I was at the same school anyone who was walked to school by a parent from the first month of primary 1 onwards would have seen you getting a hiding and a relentless amount of torment.

tup Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 Correct but then again paedos were in top positions in those days so kids were actively encouraged to venture out alone. Having said that in my experience the bairns who were tampered with were those who deserved it or wanted it. Tomorrows perverts basically. Link to comment
