[Robittybob1]

hyperactive

adjective
abnormally or extremely active.

I'd tend to agree.  There were some home video of the McCann children playing and IMO opinion completely annoying behaviour by Madeleine.

Are you saying Madeleine was abnormal?

No you missed the OR extremely active.

The description of Madeleine being enthusiastic and with lots of energy does not mean she can be described as hyperactive.

I agree.  MM's natural temperament appears to have been full of energy.  This by no means hyperactive.  I've read all the wit stats from the nannies at OC and none report MM as hyperactive.  This also applies to those who cared for MM in UK.

Hyperactive children are usually difficult to manage and there's zero evidence this applied to MM.

GM/KM were physically active people eg playing tennis and running.  They both came from ordinary backgrounds but achieved academically to the extent they became medi doctors.  Therefore the chances are their offspring would be 'energetic' both mentally and physically.

hyperactive indicates an abnormal level of activity.  Was Madeleine abnormal? 

[pathfinder73]

No she was extremely active which doesn't mean she is abnormal. Bruce Lee was a hyperactive child and had the family nickname never sits still. Was he abnormal? They have more energy than others. Madeleine would never sleep in the day like other children.

A nearly four year old would not normally take daytime naps.

None of those who cared for MM outside friends and family found her in any way difficult.  There's zero evidence she was anything other than a normal little girl.

The reason I said outside friends and family is that these people were able to observe MM objectively.  But no one in MM's friends and family reported MM as hyperactive.

You talk as if you knew Madeleine as a child personally.  You didn’t.  Try and remember that.

She was a hyperactive child -  never stops, she keeps going like Kate said.

4078 'And how would you describe Madeleine''

Reply 'Erm, yeah, sweet, lovely, you know, sort of very sort of outgoing and, erm, you know, enthusiastic, bounds of energy, sort of memories of her as they're running round the bits when we sort of chased her, it was always 'I want more. I want more. Be a monster. Be a monster' and running round, yeah'.

Sounds like a normal energetic little girl to me.

From what I can gather of Madeleine she was able to sit still and listen,  an hyperactive child wouldn't be able to sit and listen to a story for example,  I believe Madeleine could, there was no mention of Madeleine running around being disruptive in the creche.   Hyper means exactly that,  unable to sit fidgeting,  always on the go.  Madeleine sat and listened to a story before bed didn't she?   Not hyperactive at all.

I think her Auntie Trish who looked after and knew Madeleine very well knows a lot more about her than any of us. I don't make stuff up that I cannot back up so you remember that.

Madeleine, in particular, totally rejected the idea of sleeping during the day.

Yes but when did MM totally reject the idea of sleeping during the day?  Children of nearly 4 yoa would not normally take daytime naps. 

Her aunt also describes MM as "serene" which doesn't go hand in hand with hyperactive.

I'm not really sure what you're driving at here pathfinder73?  I don't understand how MM's personality and/or temperament has anything to do with her disappearance?

[pathfinder73]

Her Auntie Trish knew Madeleine since she her birth. She is not talking about her age when she disappeared. I can't believe I waste time responding to this nonsense lol.
