I'll simply say,the poor kid would never have *gone missing/killed/abducted* if the MCCanns had been responsible parents and stayed with their children.

I wouldn't have thought I could have been sued for writing that as it is the truth.

I don't suppose anyone knows what happens to all this loot that they get from various sue sprees, does it go to Charity or a good cause? that would go down a lot better than if it wasn't.
It used to be common practice at holiday camps in the UK (eg Pontins) to have their staff listening out for crying children in the chalets, who would then contact parents who were at last getting a bit of relaxation.

It is all very well to criticise parents who do this sort of thing, but it has been pretty common practice over the years.

This 'holier than thou' attitude really isn't very helpful. We should all be concentrating on finding out the evil person who abducted this child and stop demonising the McCanns.

If all lines of inquiry are exhausted, unfortunately I must agree.

H'mm. Maybe it would be better if the police re-directed their resources away from motorists and historic abuse cases into those areas that the public consider more important (eg burglaries)!
