True enough. But any parent; any decent parent, doesn’t help the kidnapper by leaving their children unattended.

It doesn’t ..

Just wondering what everyone thought was good parenting as the vast majority of the earlier comments were praising the guy then a few mentioned life jackets and the tide turned and he was suddenly being criticised for not having his daughter wear a life jacket

I’m sure little Maddie would have loved to have done that with her parents.

…. and the risk of drowning due to no safety jacket ?

Less than your kid being killed by a motorist whilst out playing on a bike.

I’d take my chances on a bike .. never ever had any trouble on bikes down the years but I have come close to drowning twice ..

It would only take a freak wave or a mistake from dad and they are both in immediate trouble ..

I find it a weird flex when these awful negligent parents are defended. Weird as ****.

Ditto from me to that.

Not a word to say about the monster, just about the parents.

You do understand that if it wasn’t for the negligence of the parents the monster wouldn’t have been able to get to this particular child though right?

No one is defending the monster.

yes because no paedo has ever been able to abduct a child by any other method than the "Portugese holiday apartment caper"




Most child abductions occur outside of school grounds, particularly in
residential areas and streets while children are playing, walking, or riding
bikes. While schools are generally considered safer, they are not immune to
the risk, according to MissingKids.org.

I don’t think anyone has suggested that. This particular child would’nt have been in any danger if her parents hadn’t left her though. Her abduction and probable murder was because a monster was able to abduct and probably murder her. Like I said, it’s a weird flex to be defending the parents in any way shape or form. Remind me to never let y’all babysit a child.

If they had been more responsible and attentive then we would maybe discussing a completely different missing child

There's as much evidence of a stranger having kidnapped Maddie as any other theory in this case (which is zero) The one thing we do know for sure is that Maddies parents left her and her younger siblings alone in the apartment and went out for the evening. Perhaps that is why people tend to focus on that part of it. So far there has been no link between this German guy and Maddie other than he was in that area at the time

Regardless, yeah I'm sure there are paedos in a lot of areas. There is still no evidence we've seen yet actually linking him to Maddie. If you want to talk statistics though, it's far more likely (statistically speaking) when a child is harmed or murdered that it was a relative or someone known to the family that did it. And in fact the only actual evidence ever brought forward was the cadaver and blood dogs who pointed to the apartment and McCanns hire car. But I digress, my point is that so far no real strong evidence of what actually happened to poor Maddie has been found so asking "What about the Monster" is meaningless when no one (no matter what opinions you have) actually knows what happened to that girl and who that (or those) monster is
