In England the McCanns would be arrested

Off the bat, I of course hope with all my heart that Madeleine is returned safely

But her "parents" are a disgrace. They left Madeleine and two-year-old twins Sean and Amelie sleeping in the apartment ON THEIR OWN. They had taken turns to return from the restaurant to check on their children.

Now hang on! In this country that is illegal, for very good reason.

Even if they 'checked on them' every five minutes that's plenty of time for one of the kids to wake up and try to go to the toilet and crack it's head open slipping on the bathroom floor, or something equally disastrous. They'd never hear the screaming from a bloody restaurant down the road!

Obviously it's unlikely, but I just cant comprehend the mentality of leaving three children under 3 alone on their own, ever, let alone at night in a foreign country!

Get lost

This has been gone over a hundred million trillion times.

You and posts like it are not helping the situation.

Go away

Lostpuppy - How can you start threads like this & call the parents a "disgrace" when an innocent child is still missing.

MN never fails to amaze me....

Now trot along & go find someone else to pick on

TootyFrooty · 18/05/2007 13:47

Get lost you weird bloke

niceglasses · 18/05/2007 13:47

Oh, get a life and find some empathy while your add it (and her hold on to yer halo too, you never know it might slip)

lulumama · 18/05/2007 13:47

how fucking dare you

the only person who should be arrested is the person who took her

izzybiz · 18/05/2007 13:47

Wether its right or wrong doesnt give that monster that has taken her any right to do what he has done.

This sort of talk isnt helping anyone now is it?

I hope to god you have your children strapped to you at all times.

disgusting op, have also reported it to mn.

tortoiseSHELL · 18/05/2007 13:49

trip trap trippety trap.

Just on a point of order, it's not illegal in this country. There is no age at which it is legal to leave a child unattended - parents make that decision themselves.

mumfor1standfinaltime · 18/05/2007 13:52

I am not aware of it being illegal to leave a child alone either.

Of course lostpuppy - you must be a 100% perfect person

DaddyCool · 18/05/2007 13:53

just a really bad decision. we make them every day. poor folks.

LostPuppy · 18/05/2007 13:55

If it isnt illegal it should be.

As I said, I really, REALLY, hope she comes back.

Must be lovely to be so bloody perfect that you can criticise other people.
NO-ONE deserves to go through what they are going through

donnie · 18/05/2007 13:57

yes lostpuppy - we all do. But unlike you , if she doesn't, we won't be smiling and saying "I told you so".

now piss off FFS.

divastrop · 18/05/2007 13:57

lulumama swore!

TootyFrooty · 18/05/2007 13:59

We've established that the McCanns would not have been arrested if this had happened in the UK so there is nothing to discuss. Can we have this thread deleted please?

UnquietDad · 18/05/2007 13:59

There are people on another board I post on saying the same thing, and unlike on here they are mostly not parents. I have tried to give them short shrift and got my head bitten off for it. Really, how productive can it be to criticise the parents? They didn't "cause" her abduction.
