I believe empathy is a continuum.

I don't... I think empathy and compassion grow like a, seed from those brave enough to plant it

[G-Unit]

It is called 'empathy' which either features in a person's genetic makeup or it or is lacking from it.

The parents of other missing children certainly have it as a result of bitter experience.  Those of us who wouldn't wish that first hand knowledge on our worst enemy, know it by exercising common sense.

The mum of missing Ben Needham from Sheffield has reacted to developments in the case surrounding the disappearance of Madeleine McCann.
Kerry, aged 47, said it must be ‘horrific and heartbreaking’ for Madeleine’s parents, Kate and Gerry McCann, to be told by German prosecutors that they have a suspect in custody and believe their daughter to be dead.

I don't think empathy is either present or absent in a new born. I think it's something children learn - or not.

I think it's probably both... Behaviour can be part if a genetic memory.. It's easy to train border collie to herd sheep because it's in bred

You can show as many snips as you like - but what you don't get is I have Empathy.

But that is for Maddie - Also I don't believe Maddie was abducted.

So what Empathy would I have for the mccs.

In my opinion as much as Goncalo Amaral had for them when he wrote a book of lies featuring them.  And in my opinion as much as those who did everything in their power to prevent Madeleine's parents looking for her when no-one else was.

Ye as you say IYO but you don't know its true.

The mccs did everything in there power to ruin GA.

Who did everything in there power to prevent mccs looking for Maddie.

Apart from themselves.

Who has prevented Kate & Gerry from looking for Madeleine?

The reverse is also evident.

Yes, and let’s face it - he started it.

I seem to recall you consider empathy to be an overrated quality anyway.

[G-Unit]

I seem to recall you consider empathy to be an overrated quality anyway.

Did I? Maybe it was selective empathy that I wasn't keen on.

[Venturi Swirl]

Did I? Maybe it was selective empathy that I wasn't keen on.

Something you don’t practice yourself then, having empathy for no one I guess?!

[Miss Taken Identity]

Who has prevented Kate & Gerry from looking for Madeleine?

Absolutely no one! And the claims they make about being left to look for their daughter alone are such horrible lies.
 They couldn't go look for their daughter -too busy jogging,blogging, gaining celebrity status  way too busy dahlings..

I have no empathy for the parents due to the one fact we do not know what happened to Maddie and if the parents were involved or not.

I agree with Kizzy. Madeleine is our concern -not the parents feelings.

[Brietta]

Back On Topic please ... Goncalo Amaral.  Thank you

[sadie]

To be fair Amaral, after his spectacular win in the libel case brought by the parents, is still sought out for his opinion on the case by the media....the Netflix docuseries for example...and has continued to happily live his life 

Cipriano, on the other hand,  is still a child murderer and deeply hated by all right-thinking individuals. She was also unceremoniously dumped by Correia when she was no longer of any use to him.

And Correia...Correia, once his funding from Metodo3 ceased went awol and when last heard of was in deepest Brazil.

Well done Amaral say I.

Yep, he married a Brazilian girl.

Leonor Cipriano is not a murderer in the eyes of people who value Justice.  She was mercilessly tortured.   Her trial was the most unjust trial that I have ever heard of.  Henry Peacock was the judge, IIRC.   Dependent on the results, it will be interesting to find out what happens to him after the ECHR assess the case.

It will be interesting to hear how it affects Amaral and his mate Cristovao too
