Re: child abducted
When this story first broke it was reported that the child had been left in the apartment with her brother and sister. I assumed that the brother and sister were at least in their early teens then I saw a photograph of the family and it was apparent that the brother and sister were little more than babies.
I am just dumbfounded but to cap it all they then have the audacity to blame the police for taking so long to arrive. If this had happened in the UK they would have been arrested for child abandonment. The parents get no sympathy from me. They left three children to their own devices in a strange apartment in a foreign country while they went off to feed their faces. They should be locked up for life. |
Re: child abducted
The parents are to blame and no it wont help their little girl but anyone that thinks its acceptable to leave their children unattended then they are no better than the parents of the little girl.
Black and white...they should never have been left and its completely unacceptable behavior to leave children that young on their own. How could anyone even entertain the thought of leaving a child alone, it makes my skin crawl. :mad: |

What a sad individual you are. Let's hang everyone who's ever made an error of judgement just to make room for your ego. |

I just cannot agree that an otherwise good/loving parent who makes an error of judgement is in the same league as a child abuser such as the ones you describe. In this case the abuser is quite clearly the person who abducted the child, to place the blame on the parents would signal otherwise and that's a very dangerous road to go down! |

Its not being nasty and anyone that condones leaving young children on their own is no better than the parents of this little girl in my book. This is not just a little mistake or an accident. Leaving something lying around for a child to pick up is a mistake, a moment of 'not thinking'. Leaving any child that cannot fend for themselves is absolute madness and although the anger should be focused on the disgusting person who maybe took her, it still does not change the fact they they were left 'alone'. The child is in my thoughts, not the parents. |

Re: child abducted
I am not saying ooh lets just go out and blame the parents but its just that it seems that some are being so flippant about it. Yes the parents must be absolutely devastated but even when I watched the news even the reporter said, 'well they were only a few hundred yards away and were coming to check on them', well this does not make it OK to leave a child!

The child protection act is there to ensure that children are kept safe from harm. I find it strange that the media are saying that they were only a few hundred yards away when if a parent in UK left a child alone in a flat to nip to the local shop for their cigs or drink or something there would be a hue and cry from everyone including the media.
