3 tiny kids are very vulnerable & need full supervision, and I'm not buying that they were able to keep going back & forth to check on them. Why didn't they take the kids with them to the restaurant and check that it's child friendly?, or better still... just leave them back in the UK with a respectable relative or trusted member to fully babysit. I don't understand why you would take your 3 small children on holiday...to then dump them in a apartment in a foreign setting, while you go out for dinner with friends? . Doesn't make sense to me.

And we all know as I've said before...if this was another Karen Mathews type family,then social services would have been all over this !! .

Anyone that makes ANY excuse for what they did is vile imo.
