madasfish Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 really thats how you class people that have their own opinion, when someone disagrees of your view of the mcanns they get labelled as the perfect parent brigade you so call it.let me just add would you leave your kids on their own while you nipped to the pub..or go out for dinner and leave your front door open. Here we go again "would you leave your kids alone" - it is like a broken record that goes on and on and on................. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ronthenekred Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Just for the record, I don't agree with what they did, but I also feel desperately sorry for what they are going through. I, as a parent have made many mistakes, just that thankfully, none as great as the one they made that night. However I dont think they are guilty of anything other than that. 1) That's because you hold empathy. 2) Again I agree but because of your mistakes and the mistakes many parents make, despite how great they are or not, could now be in the McCanns situation and receiving the same kind of attack. Perps are driven by opportunity and desire, no amount of care can protect from that. I also agree that what they did went beyond stupidity, but you don't have to be stupid for your child to go missing. The Needham child was obviously neglected in some form, did they receive the same backlash from the press? I'm not sure but I can't recall it ever did.

ronthenekred Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 But thats what forums like this are for,throwing ideas and opinions around I agree but usually they have some form of tenuous connection? I can go along with your idea that the child wasn't in her room when they left that night, but it would be supposition. I could also take that idea a little further. What if the child was removed by a 3rd party just before the McCanns left for their outing. It could be that they put them to bed half our before leaving and left without checking, in which case the accusation of neglect in relation to the abduction is unfounded because the abduction could have taken place before they left. Disclaimer: The above is something I totally made up without any shred of evidence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lindseyw Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 The Needham child was obviously neglected in some form, did they receive the same backlash from the press? I'm not sure but I can't recall it ever did. I remember it well, was he neglected though ? I don't know, he was playing outside, and from what I remember it was what was believed to be in a secure environment ? I know there was a lot of talk at the time about him not actually 'Missing' that was a really sad story too, to get no answers after all these years must be hell.
