They did nothing wrong and did what millions of parents would do and do do every day of the year. What was wrong was that they were targeted by an abductor.
The fact that you would not have done that (if you had children) is neither here nor there. For all you know the child could have been nabbed in the supermarket the next day, or on the beach.

I tend to agree with that. I'm not sure why the door was unlocked, it should have been locked, but hindsight is a wonderful thing.
