Yes Davel,,and the phrase - "watching out especially for when children are ........." no way is that relevant or anything like that.

I didn't know that sedating of children during travel was so commonplace among middle-class parents. As this one says, how else can you relax and have a 'calming snifter'? For her, it's just common sense to drug the kids
 so everyone can have a bit of peace.

Precisely zilch.

How do you know what the mccanns did ?

You weren't there.

Apparently, and according to Faithlilly, the McCanns in their positions as doctors and ex-anaesthetists had access to some sedatives that would presumably knock Piriton and Calpol into a cocked hat (though she declined to name these sedatives or how they would be administered).

I could empathise will her desperation with a screaming baby, but I don't understand why anyone thinks sedating children of 8, 6 and 4 is reasonable.

[Alfred R Jones]

As we weren't there or didn't know what the McCanns did that apparently gives some people carte blanche to speculate about all manner of things.  Maybe it was Piriton, or maybe it was Calpol or maybe it was a powerful opiate, it was bound to be something though, wasn't it?  They must have done something sinister like drug their kids cos as we know, some doctors are Amaral and some are downright evil, right?

ETA:  FFS - now I can';t even write the word a m o r a l without the good doctor himself popping up - hilarious!

Agreed below a certain age children don't have the ability to be distracted long term.

There were rumours that the McCann children had been sedated. These middle-class Mum's medicine of choice seems to be anti-histamines. Could the children have had access to an anti-hitstamine?

and an anti-histamine called Terfenadine for hay fever. He did not give any of these medicines or any others to the children while on holiday in Portugal.
