The key word there was "responsible", LT. No responsible parent let's their 4 year old and toddlers walk to school on their own. And no responsible parent leaves children that age alone in a house / apartment / hotel room alone and goes off for dinner. In fact, I was reading an article just today about a couple being g arrested for going out and leaving their kids alone at home - the eldest of whom was 8.
Its reckless and irresponsible behaviour at best and in my opinion should be considered criminally negligent. They should have been arrested for their actions no matter what actually happened to the girl. There needs to be a very clear message that this is NOT OK.
Anyone who furthers the idea that the McCann's did nothing wrong by leaving those kids is simply telling other parents that it's acceptable parenting.
