To be honest I have no comprehension of what could go through the mind of someone who would abduct a 3 year old, so who am I to write anything off as a possibility.

Of course this story sells newspapers, it is a beautiful 3 year old girl from a good family taken from her bed in a nice resort in a nice village while her parents ate 50 metres away. I'm sure they are very grateful, however they are also managing it very well, a reflection of a) the fact that they are intelligent pofessional people b) the support they are getting from Mark Warner who appointed a PR man immediately, and c) The coverage of the question as to whether they were right to leave her in a room alone. If you can find one strory about any child under 16 being abducted since Madeline I would be surprised. More likely you are taking stats bandied around by those who for their own agenda are trying to jump on this particular media bandwagon. Every three seconds someone dies of starvation. The tragedy is that this doesn't get coverage, but your average person just wants to get on with their life, and reading about or seeing tragedy every day just makes it harder.

Where any of them 3 year olds abducted from their beds? Or abducted at all? No, they where probably kids running away from home, which while not a good thing, is clearly completely different.

Nothing wrong with a fund to manage the donations people send in to help them stay in Portugal and look for her.

I apologise. Muppet.

Of course they bear some responsibility, and they will live with that for the rest of their lives. You don't seem to be able to understand that this was not something that they could reasonably anticipate happening. Do you apply this level of scrutiny to your own decisions?

Did you really just write that rubbish? You are responsible for your own safety, but if you go to sleep tonight and someone kills you in your bed is that your fault? Muppet.

I have cooler glasses! And a smaller nose. And bette hair cut, and eveyone apart from the Wide thinks I'm less irritating.

I look like Louis Theroux.
