No Child of Mine

Im not being funny, but some of you sound like perverts yourself getting all defensive! The movie was intended to be over the top in order to illustrate the vulnerability of some children in our society today. Whilst I can accept that the mass betrayal to Kerry from almost every adult she encountered was some what unbelievable, who is to say that her parents and their friends weren't involved in a paedophile circle and this point was not focused on the film. It was clear that the abuse had been going on from before the breakdown of her parents marriage or indeed where the storyline actually kicked off.

The movie was powerful as it portrayed a story from the perspective of a child who knew what was happening to her was wrong, but tried to block the truth out in order to have some sense of normality from her parents. I myself have no knowledge of how these perverted networks operate but can only imagine that these people don't advertise their membership with a sign on their head, it is believable that something like this could happen and is still happening with guardians and family friends who are good at hiding their illness, we only have to look at a few domestic abuse cases to see how people attempt to hide what happens behind closed doors.

Obviously in the times we live in now there will be cases where adults are falsely accused of molestation, but I think the film demonstrates how these should still be investigated seriously, because for this type of thing to happen just once is far too much in the life of a child. The way the care system was CPS was bound by red tape demonstrates the systems failings on some of our most vulnerable in society, the betrayal of the care home worker demonstrates the type of people who pray on people in this situation. Now more checks are carried on adults who work with children and this is a positive development, 20 plus years ago this was just not the case.

A powerful drama which I believe is intended to stimulate thought and awareness about the things that are happening around us. - No Child of Mine - the title says it all, I would not accept it for any of my children or any child for that matter. What has happened to the real meaning of community?

I cried through most of this movie. It was such a compelling story. What this poor girl went through with both her mother, father and all others around her was just terrible. It just floors me that someone might even think of putting their own children through this. Sad part is that it is no doubt happening somewhere in the world right now. It makes you want to hug your own children. I think this movie is a must see. Not for the faint of heart though! Does anyone know what is the name of the last song played in the movie? I have been searching for a few years now but I haven't had any luck in finding it. It was so haunting. If you know could you let me know. Thanks Lisa

This movie has so many emotions to it, I cannot name just one feeling that I felt. What an eye opener for Brittan, not to mention all states. This may be an older movie but the message is just the same today. The things that are happening to our children in this day & age are unimaginable. I pray that the victims in these movies find solace. I am appalled as to the long string of adults that this child came in contact with and failed her. From her blood to the system. How she lived daily is a mystery. For such a young girl to muster the strength and courage to live on a daily bases is unreal. This poor girl is the perfect picture to a broken system. I had to check twice to be sure that this was a true story. It is unbelievable!!

This movie is very eye opening I've watched a lot of movies like this but this is the only I had to fight back my tears can't believe how people and use a little girl is such a way in considering this is based on true events The sad thing is this is not isolated incident hundreds if not thousands kids go through this every year at the end of the of movie considering everything she went through and what was done to her I felt so sorry for her and the facts told At the end of the movie. Made me so angry this movie needs to be watched people needs to have there eyes opened this story will stay with me for the rest of my lives 10/10.

A young lady abused by her parents and others, eventually finding a safe haven through a teacher who did his best to help. He did happen to mention 'a place near Bournemouth' and 'Childline' which did point her in the write direction. I hope for her sake, as there was no follow up to the film, that she has now found that all adults are not the same and she has found happiness. I am a child care officer and I was moved to tears with this film. The acting and direction was just right for a very delicate subject, which needed to to be brought to the surface. I applaud the TV company for airing it, as I am sure it took a brave decision. It was a class film full of emotion which, I don't believe it has been on since, anybody know if it is available on DVD or VHS?
