Question are you going to shop the parents for taking their own child away from hospital? Regardless of the rights and wrongs of giving treatment to the child isn't this a similar case to that of certain religous groups who refuse blood transfusions? Second question is the child subject to a court order?If not then why are the police involved?

Q1. Yes Q2. Because the child's life in in danger. Why? is it really your business. How do you know that the child has not been given days to live.

Thought I read/heard that parents were told there was nothing else that could be done for the little boy and they then took the decision to remove him to seek help elsewhere. Whatever the true facts my thoughts and wishes are for the little lad. Echo your sentiments tomcat, lets not try and compete with Game of Moans.

Dismay is what I feel, tomcat, sonnetpete, southpork.
Littlemouse's comments, while coming across to me as 'aggressive', are perfectly valid, rational, and the stuff of debate, not 'petty argument'.
Within the topic are all manner of debating points. The reference to the child having been 'snatched' from the hospital is just one. We know that he wasn't 'snatched', but perfectly legally removed, but the story is 'spun' to sensationalize it. So 'not believing everything you read in the papers' becomes another theme of the thread - if the forum allows it to run.
But it doesn't allow it to run. It even prides itself on stifling 'aggressive' debate. And regards itself as superior for so doing. The result is the topic fizzles out, people don't post, people like me despair at what I see as the forum shooting itself in the foot.
Please forum, stop bigging yourself up, while remaining so small as to be inconsequential, and look for ways of encouraging posts, not stifling them.
ps: Littlemouse isn't a prolific poster. After this experience I wouldn't blame him for being even less prolific. Is that in the forum's interest?
