We wouldn't be having this debate if they had left all their kids for the hotel listening service to look in after 1 hour.
Because that definitely
would be a safeguarding issue? Or because it
wouldn't?
So what you're saying is that all the millions of parents leaving their kids every year to hotel listening services
is actually a safeguarding issue?
Absolutely, there's no way I'd trust the safety of my 3 year old left in a strange hotel room on the other side of a holiday resort to some random hotel employee listening at the door every hour - that's plenty of time for them to get into all sorts of trouble. I'd either stay close by and take a baby monitor or just stay in the room, but then I value my kids rather than treating them as an inconvenience (even if they are a pain in the **** at times!)
It also depends on the age of the kids. If they're old enough to know how to look after themselves, not to do dumb things like drink bleach, and capable of getting help if needed, then fine, but not a toddler, I mean how stupid do you actually need to be to think that's a good idea?
I don't see the relevance of how many other people there were? Whether it was just the 2 parents or them and 200 friends, no-one was looking after the kids. It's self-evident. If they
had been looking after her properly, she wouldn't have disappeared.
