So yeah, It has been over a month. ;___;
I seriously miss this poor girl. I could not believe what she went through, you do not know what those idiots are doing to her as we type. Imagine how Kate and Gerry are feeling now, too.
I am doing a school speech on her this month. I will copy and paste it when I have finished.
I hope you are found, Little maddy <3

I feel sorry for her family too, because they're not even near their home. It has been a long time for a little girl to be gone, there doesn't seem to be much hope at the moment.

It's terrible...in a way i wish that she isn't going through abuse which she probably is and if she is, I think it would be better for her to die instead of being under so much suffering

I have to agree with all of you, Its only a slight chance she will be found. But I will still be praying for her.

So for school, we had to write a speech on a kidnapping. I chose Maddy:
Do you remember when you were four years old? Do you remember how you could do anything, and didn’t have to worry about what people thought of you? Do you remember when you didn’t have to worry about kidnappers and harassers? Where you could think about lollies and that new toy you are going to get all day long. Most four year olds like to giggle and play around. And when they get the chance to go on a plane or holiday, they are over the moon. A new place to explore, new kids to play with. It’s a child’s heaven. Today I am going to talk to you about one of the words most devastating and inhumane kidnappings in history. Have you ever heard of a girl named Madeleine McCann? If not, you really need to watch the news more. Madeleine was enjoying a fun trip in Algarve, Portugal, when she was abducted from her hotel room at around 10:00PM. Her parents were enjoying a quick meal before bed, and came back to find their daughter missing. This kidnapping made front page headlines all around the world. An amazing number of people have donated more than seven hundred thousand pounds to support Madeleine and her family. Her parents Kate and Jerry have put every single bit of effort into finding their daughter, and say that they will never, ever give up. Maddy has a distinctive right eye which can easily be identified. Just under her pupil, Maddy has a large brown speck that finishes at the bottom of her eyeball. Kate and Jerry have received thousands of letters supporting them and keeping their spirits up to find Madeleine. People all over the world have put up websites and articles in magazines about Maddy. Even though it has been over a month, nobody refuses to give up hope. And they shouldn’t, because millions of people around the world will be praying for her each and every night until she is found. Around the world, especially in Madeleine’s home country, England, many schools and companies have organized fundraisers and activities to raise awareness about Maddy. Donations are pouring in by the day to help save the four year old. Kate and Jerry spend hours each day with British Law Enforcers, lawyers, consulate staff and press officers while they think of ways to find Maddy. They always call their family while this is happening, because they are also throwing their hearts into finding her. Portuguese police are also searching day in day out, and back home British officials are also trying their best to find information on the abduction of Maddy. Over the weekend there was a false accusation that someone knew where Maddy was buried. However, fortunantly this was not true and no evidence of Madeleine was found. Back here in Australia, many of you did not have a clue who Madeleine McCann was before I presented you with this speech. We need to help with the situation, because Maddy’s case is definitely not the first in the world. Daily, children are kidnapped around the world, even in our home country. Kidnappings are not a scary wives tale to make children follow their mothers around all day long and not talk to strangers. Kidnappings are not a threat, neither a joke. We need to take them seriously, because nobody can even describe the feeling both the child and the child’s family experience. So next time you see the headline in the paper or your favorite magazine, maybe think about what that child could be feeling right now. Maybe don’t just skip the page after reading the first few words. Sure, it may have nothing to do with you, but there are ways you can help. I really do hope this speech gave you a different point of view on abductions. I really hope Madeleine McCann, and any other children missing are found safe and sound. I also really hope you agree with me. Thank you for listening to my speech.
It sucks, but anyways.

It's been a while since this happened, and I'm afraid many people have lost hope. What makes me more sad is the fact that there are SO many more children out there who don't get media attention like Maddy. Their parents look for them too, but they don't get the whole worlds attention, help, and prayers. I hope someday they at least find out what has happened to her.

^Tis exactly my thought. But, honetly I'm not trying the blame game but their parents shouldn't have left her there.
