OK. My thoughts.

Yes, I believe that the parents were wrong to leave the children on their own. Whether they were 40 yards away or 400, it makes no difference. My parents wouldn't have left me in a strange hotel on my own in the room. Yes, they would have done it at home, but at home, you have access, and maybe give keys to friends or family, but that's it. In a hotel, anyone of a number of people have access to your room, and you don't know them.

However, as Mick said, saying that, and criticising the parents does not actually help to bring the child back.

They may have made a mistake, but they are suffering for it now. I, for one, feel sorry for them, and don't think that anyone (least of all them) deserves to go through what they are going through.
