Re: Madeleine McCann
 

When we came home at the weekends (stationed in Sheffield), we would go to the Queens or the Stag in Church with my Mum & Dad on Saturday nights, but one of my wife, Mum or I (Dad did the occasional shift), would stay at home in Maden St, and we would do half hour shifts. No hardship at all - one hour in the pub and half an hour at home for the evening.

Some people are just plain selfish. Only interested in themselves. It is like when a child drowns in a pool because parents are in the bar or where ever and then they blame the hotel because there was no lifeguard. Children are a parents responsibility ALL the time whether at home or on holiday.

Have read in todays paper,a couple have been arrested in Majorca for leaving 2 children unsupervised aged 11 @ 4, whilst they went out drinking, nothing at all wrong with that in my view, Funny how no-one arrested the MCanns , its who yeh happen to be as far as i'm concerned Disgraceful.

Re: Madeleine McCann
 

I suspect you mean nothing wrong with them being arrested for neglecting underage children, have always said that poor child's parents should be brought before the law for similar neglect and yes it's strange or should that be irresponsible that they weren't?

To me Less its pretty simple, it depends who yeh happen to be in Society, its that simple.:(

Re: Madeleine McCann
 

Yes, and how wrong it is, had they been ordinary folk this would have been done and dusted.

Parents, neglected child/children do not deserve forgiveness, why? The reason why is obvious. If parents get away with neglect other, parents with even less chances in life will think it's okay to ignore their responsibilities.
Children need to be cared for no matter what or where their parents come from a busy life is no excuse to party on down and leave the kids, there where enough members of that group for them to take shifts babysitting their own without missing much social life.

Re: Madeleine McCann
 

Well said. Bloody disgrace they haven't been locked up.

Re: Madeleine McCann
 

think the majority agree, but cashy gives the reason above why they probebly have not.
