Kronologic said:Who said she was abducted?
In this case I think it is clear where to point the finger. If there was a responsible adult minding the 3 children then she would not have gone missing.
Additionally how did the "sicko" get in? why did the "sicko" not take the other 2?
There is more to this than we know about.
You know what? Thats the thing I find most surprising. Where's that self-righteous, pompous, do gooding little ***** in all of this?Cuchulain said:Has Bono jumped on this bandwagon yet?
She could have wondered off. So yes.Six6siX said:Equally so, would she be missing if someone didn't take her?
And they would have been aware of it much faster/called the police sooner/raised the alarm immediately/ and likely be chasing said perpetrator'sSix6siX said:Even if they had stayed in, someone could have taken her. Granted, not as likely to happen, but there is still a probability associated.
Six6siX said:Lets say that there is a probability that a certain child will be kidnapped. There is ALWAYS a probability that they could be kidnapped. This probability can increase or decrease based on things which directly relate to the event. Eg...
a) The location of the parents
b) The (potential kidnapper)
c) The time of day
d) The state of mind of the child
and a million other things.
Yes the parents put their wants before the safety of their children. Their daughter could easily have drowned in the bath, set the place on fire or sustained a head injury whilst not being watched.Six6siX said:It just so happened that on the day, a series of events which, by happening in a particular order gave rise to the current situation.
Yes it is. They left 3 children under the age of 4 unattended for a significant time in a foreign country, whilst they went out on a jolly. No one else is to blame for this. Maddy would be alive at home and well for certain if they had not gone out.Six6siX said:Therefore, although the parents are responsible, it is no way correct to place the blame entirely on them imo.
sniffy said:Fair point. It was an assumption, just seemed the most logical to make.
My Mum has said since the beginning the parents are involved in some way. She has said the same about other strange cases like this (mostly strange murders where the husband/wife turned out to be responsible) and has been right a worrying amount of times. I'm with you on this, there does seem to be more than we know. To what extent I'm unsure. I don't think they were involved in her going missing (taking part in the process) but I believe the extent of neglect comes into question.

You can't beat a good balloon release. I expect she will be turning up anytime now.Clinkz said:Don't worry folks, they are releasing balloons in her honour around the world.

Six6siX said:I do see your point, but if we assume that it turns out she was kidnapped (and let's face it, it's the thing that's most likely to have happened), would you say that the the kidnappers are not in the wrong at all? The blame still lies 100% with the parents?
However how often do you hear of children being taken from their home when the parents are around?
