While it is no laughing matter, I did have to laugh when a child abduction profiler was on the news yesterday talking about the abduction from two decades ago here in the states. He said that the profile of women who kidnap babies is "A woman who has lost her own baby recently" Well, well, well.

Well, well, well, indeed. I still don't get the outrage with the storyline --- there's been every kind of atrocity you can imagine on EE, and yet I've never heard this kind of reaction from families of murder victims, kidnap victims etc.

I'm with you eefan. I think that has upset me more than the actual storyline. We have alcoholics, rape, murder, drug use, etc on the show and nobody really says anything. We have this storyline and all of sudden the show is giving a bad wrap to mothers who lost their children to SIDS?
Personally, I was more frustrated by the storyline that Kat and the baby weren't at the hospital the next day after she gave birth in store room and Ronnie was just up and about and totally on her own after giving birth in less than 24 hours!

I am so with you, Ladies. I think that is what I have been trying to say but have been failing miserably. I am not sure why this storyline has hit such a cord. I was more disturbed by Tony and Whitney, but that is just me...I was surprised that Kat and Tommy were not at the hospital as well, Sky. I know other countries are more "home birthy" than the States, but usually those come with a plan to have the baby at home...Kat and Alfie weren't planning on it, so shouldn't they have gone straight away?

Ok. so why isn't EE knocking down our doors to write scripts for them?????

I'm not sure eefan, but they need to be! We'd fix it!

@spurs-I was much more disturbed by the Tony and Whitney plotline as well. That was seriously gross and disturbing and I've worked with abuse victims!

Here's an update on the storyline --- it has a spoiler in it, so don't read ahead if you don't want to know what happens just yet:

Thanks for posting that. It's honestly the way I figured it would all end up working out.

I have not read the spoilers, but good god she is driving me CRAZY!!! Quit slouching around and TELL SOMEONE if it is bothering you that bad and if it is not, enjoy having a kid!! She is so whiny and spineless that she makes me want to strangle her. Jack was right, she does most things just for the attention. ARRRGGGGHHHH!

Well, I am happy to see the storyline is wrapping up. It started out well, but since the BBC caved in to the complaints, the storyline took a nosedive. I feel sorry for Jack, happy for Alfie and as always a little confused by Kat. She gets what she has been wanting for 4 months and she decides she can't do it and walks away??? I hate that she always does that..."I ain't doin' this!" stomp, stomp, stomp...I think if she ever allowed herself to actually be happy, it would kill her!
