is that the little girl in the picture?sky news homepage...

[kyra16]

hi stoke; saw that earlier 2day...does kinda look like her

[cazzz1975]

very difficult to tell... if it is she looks younger that her other pictures

[cazzz1975]

there are a lot of kids who look similar, my next door neighbour has a 4 year old who looks the image of maddie

[stokemaveric]

hi kyra u ok?wouldnt it be good if it was tho and the police could get her back?

[kyra16]

i'm good how r u? yea that would be amazing...if its not though i feel so bad for her parents; the ups/downs must be torture

[PatriciaH]

Surely with the technology of today the photo could be "blown up" and scrutinised to see if it is maddie? it looks a good phote but a bit far away to see properly

It would be marvellous if it was her....

[B00]

i'm not a praying person stoke, but I have- in the hope that it is her.

What this must be doing to Kate and Gerry doesn't bear thinking about.

[bobtheturkey]

im sure if it was her they would be doing something?

[PatriciaH]

The news on ITV has just said its the 2nd photo of who they say MAYBE maddie ,

[stokemaveric]

im good thanx kyra....it must surely be a rollercoaster of emotions for the parents one im sure none of us would ever want to encounter....they made a grave error of judgement by leaving the kids alone but they are paying a heavy price thats for sure.

[kyra16]

good stoke...you're right they are paying a huge price...i just wish they would get some kind of answer one way or another. the "in limbo" aspect has to be unimaginably hard....

[stokemaveric]

too right kyra i dont think i would be as strong as they appear to be but hey who knows what goes on behind closed doors eh?

[B00]

I was thinking about that kyra the other week during another discussion about Madeleine. Would it really be better to know your child's dead than nothing? Surely hope is better than knowing that you'll never see your child alive?

[kyra16]

you're right stoke...god knows how they are really coping?! so sad....
on a side note....did you see how so many people are getting banned? whats up with that? i was banned for like a week, then yesterday got back on..so weird...

[kyra16]

boo....i think that i'd want to know regardless...can you imagine going day after day and just not knowing? i think imagination can be far worse than the thruth, at least you can begin to deal with it (i'm not going to say closure because as i know from personal experience there is no such thing! )

[stokemaveric]

lol kyra i posted a question last night asking what your first car was.it didnt get on but a few nights earlier there was a question on about peoples favourite sexual positions..oh well lol

[B00]

I dunno, I think i'd rather cling on to the hope that my child was alive and hopefully well somewhere 'out there'. I honestly think that knowing they are definitely dead, they're never coming back would finish me off.

And sorry stoke, strayed from your original point.

[PatriciaH]

Hi Boo , we all know about the sickos out there in the world and if it were my child missing id rather they be found alive of course but after all this time id rather my childs body be found than to think of them being with god knows who - do you know what i mean? this whole thing is so sad and not a day passes that i dont think of little maddie and pray shes alive and well and being looked after ok

[stokemaveric]

and back to little maddie yes id want to know 1 way or the other....but as you say kyra there is no closure really.

[stokemaveric]

no problem boo............................
