Has anyone seen this movie? It was hard to watch but well made. SPOILER ALERT!!!! :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: I just wonder, does anyone agree with what happens in the end? Do you think he did the right thing? Would you have done the same?

It's a movie. What do you mean by fallacious?

That is was Proven to be fallacious perhaps? That does make it a fallacy. A X-ray tech and son of a prominent radiologist says: "I dispute the "scream" notion of either a Doppler or real-time ultrasound. What you see is a xeroradiographic film of acoustical echoes as they bounce around and envelope certain tissues. The waves you label a "scream" are acoustical shadows of amniotic fluid displaced by pressure or puncture of the sac. These waves tend to radiate in a counter-clockwise cyclonic manner, much like water flowing down a drain" The cerebro cortex doesn't start to function until about the same time as the outer edge of viability - 20 to 22 weeks, long after most abortions are done. While I do support restrictions on later abortions there is absolutely no medical support of any fetal reactions or even personhood in the first trimester when 90% of all abortions are performed. To claim otherwise is a bold face lie to promote the emotionally charged immature ideas of the anti-women, anti-choice movement. Let me also be clear that in a perfect world abortion would not be needed. I believe abortion is the least favorable choices over not becoming pregnant or adoption. However, it clearly should be the women's choice at least in the first trimester. I strongly suggest you study when the cerebral coretex actually develops enough to produce emotions, which are actually chemical reactions, before defending bald faced lies like this appallngly inaccurate piece of propaganda.

I watched it last night. On a emotional level I would disagree with what he did. But if I think about it I would have to agree. There are agencies to report to and if that had been done then the police officer could have made a point of keeping the pressure on the agency to make sure there was action on behalf of the child. The Aunt and Uncle could have petioned for guardianship of the neice. There were just to many things that could have been done that weren't. Instead they jump right to kidnapping (and even with the best of intentions that is what they did) so in the end I would have to say he did the right thing. Fortuanately it was just a movie and hopefully no one would set up a chin of events that result in multible murders, the corruption of several police officers and the death of another child to save one child from a disinterested mother.

no. it's not about madeline mccann, but holy does the little girl in it look like her! i think they delayed the release of the movie because they didn't want it to be confused with her story and out of respect for the parents.

Children Are Not Pets Posted: 02-20-08 18:37pm


Children deserve to live. They say we don't pick our parents, but, certainly it is the parents who conceive the child. And, as Jincks said, there are options available to women. I personally am pro-life. That is not a big secret on this Forum. I have always advocated responsibility with a capital R. There are certainly some painful choices made with for the reasons only they can make, a child can't stay. It is sad for everybody concerned. Still, we live and learn with our mistakes. Sistersister, you have a good heart. I can tell. Social Services is a system. You can sometimes just fall through the cracks. Killbill, yes, some parents are trully awful and don't deserve to have children in their lives, but somehow those kids may find a way to fight their way out of the h**lish life their parents live in. Most of us are survivors.

I just hope no one goes and makes a movie about her story. It would be in very poor taste. But you just can't put anything past some people. They make tv movies about anything.
