Is the apportioning of blame a coping mechanism?

Only the McCanns said Madeleine was tired and worn out. DP said they were happy at 6:30 not worn out or asleep. No nanny said Madeleine was tired. Yet another inconsistency.

She probably was  tired but no more much than any other day ..a three year old all day at a creche, doing swimming and sailing and whatever else, going to the pool with parents in between too, of course she would be tired rather than being drugged the night before !!! In some ridiculous "dry run" of an abduction honestly! or the next day! during the day

Neither scenarios sound logical or plausible in any way shape or form IMO

My question was who would KM think  drugged her earlier in the day!!!

I think she would be tired on WED with the sleep she missed on TUE but apparently she never stopped - a hyperactive child. Be a monster chase me usually at the playground until 6:30 except for 3 May.

So you don't believe that the children were tired or worn out?  Is tiredness a constant state or something which develops over the course of the day?  Was DP a better judge of the children's state than their own mother?

I don't care who is the better judge. Only the truth matters.

On the day she went missing Madeleine was so tired that she asked her mummy to carry her home.

According to KM, well, since when has that source been the harbinger of truth?
You just cannot take everything uttered by the parents as unquestionable truth....theres a word Im looking for.....but just cant quite manage to nail the head on at the moment

Not saying she lied on this particular issue...just hoping you get the general JIST

As its tumbleweed day I shall see you later

Kate was certainly a better judge of knowing if Maddie was drugged that day to make her tired, being an anaesthetists. A specialist field in putting people under sedation. knowing, weight, height and what drug to use should have been easy for her to deduce?

Also, being a doctor she did check to see if the twins were breathing. Strange she sould think they were drugged as the reason for them not waking up and not the reason she gave earlier i.e they were very tired. So what is it to be: drugged  or sound sleep? oh the changes, the changes.

Trying to make a story fit just makes it all seem too messy. Playing the detective makes me more suspicious
