    I hope those abusive "child minders" who were featured in last night's programme are prosecuted for assault and child abuse, although seeing as this is Ireland, I wouldn't be banking on it.

    These sons of b's need to be identified and lynched.

    So if you had a child that can crawl...where do you put them when you need to have pee? Or a shower? :)

    (Don't worry, these are things I never thought of before I had a kid myself!)


    Ivy, I'm delighted to hear that you still can put children in a playpen, believe me. It's just I have never ever seen one in any of my family or friends houses who have children. and I simply assumed they weren't used any longer. If I had a toddler, and i needed to do things, then a play pen it would be.

    Sure they have had people posting on boards in the last week as well saying that the mistreatment was the fault of the undercover reporter who wasn't pulling her weight and so putting stress on the one that was abusing the kids!

    Oh there are a lot of people that frown on them but if the child isn't walking, I can't see a problem with them personally. :)

    Didnt see that, was that in AH? Would love to meet any of those b***hes (and lets be honest they should be called worse) if any of them did anything like to my baby (and even before this he was never going in a creche) I would put them through a wall, wouldnt care if they were a woman, they are beating up babies.

    None of our kids could stand being in a pen for more than a few minutes - we have a travel cot with mesh sides, rather than the wooden bar style playpen.

    IRRC, the cot was used as a temporary holding pen while ablutions were performed (that, and timing said ablutions when they were napping!)

    That is disgusting, the fact that a male cannot be left alone with kids. It's sick, it really is.

    God my little fella loves the playpen! It's a big one with wooden bars, so he has a lot of space to move around. And now he's pulling himself up with the bars and learning to walk in it.

    Didn't see the programme but haven't all high chairs got a safety harness, to strap a child in, for their own safety??:confused:

    Yes, for when they are being fed. They're not a holding pen to be used for hours on end.

    These werent high chairs, they were kiddie chairs. If a child fell out of one it's behind would fall about 6 inches. One little fella was trying to walk with his chair still strapped on.

    I haven't seen the show yet, I'm not sure I want to.

    Bah, it's not on the RTE player. I didn't watch or record it last night as I'd assumed I'd be able to catch it online.
    The RTE Player site wrote:
    A discussion chaired by Claire Byrne into the standards in childcare in Ireland. Wherever possible, we endeavour to make as many programmes as possible available to our audience on RTÉ Player. With regard to this edition of Prime Time: A Breach of Trust, RTÉ made an agreement with the parents that the footage would be broadcast last night only. An on-demand viewing facility would clearly breach that agreement. It was also the express wish of the parents of the children involved that no creche footage be reproduced in broadcast, print or online. We regret that, on this occasion, it will not be possible to facilitate requests to view this edition on RTÉ Player.

    On reflection, I guess it's fair enough that the parents of the kids in question would only want it broadcast once.

    I think people are misunderstanding me, lets leave it there - maybe I can't express myself well.

    Or maybe I have a begrudery toward religion.


    But I never meant to imply he doesn't have anything but positive feelings towards his kids.
