In both instances you need a predatory paedophile. The Mccanns could have left their child in thousands of resorts in hundreds of countries with safety.

So leaving them all alone as an easy target makes it all right?

Except the latest (ridiculous) line is that it was a burglar/s..not a paedophile that took her. A burglar that ignored the valuables in the apartment and took a child instead.

I would suggest that this is unlikely

So by that logic, this would also be right: A mother leaves her 2 year old alone at night while she goes out drinking, a fire starts and the child is killed, it's not the mothers fault cos she didn't start the fire?

That is not a parallel with the mccann situation. If a fire had started there it would have been spotted and the children rescued

No, you're missing the point I'm making, you're saying that the McCanns should not be considered guilty of neglecting their children by leaving them home alone, in an unlocked apartment because they weren't the ones that abducted her (if that's what happened) so by that logic they would not be guilty if anything bad happened to her while she was in the apartment alone that night including an accident or a fire, unless the McCanns were the direct cause.

The neglect aspect is just your own opinion, they did not see any issue and as there is no law broken thats the end of it. I am sure that if they analysed your parenting they could highlight aspects that would raise their eyebrows.

Well, it doesn't take an in-depth analysis to work out that you don't leave babies (and that's all those 3 kids were) alone at night while you go drinking, I would have thought that'd be pretty high up on the "what not to do as a parent list"

In this instance they looked at the set up and considered it reasonable

It doesn't take long for people to be killed in a fire, just a couple of breathes of smoke into the lings and that's it. How could you be so sure they'd be rescued?
