Kerry Needham must have been suffering more trauma than it is possible to imagine over the past few weeks throughout the period they have been digging in an attempt to locate her son's remains.
This insensitive OP reflects no concern or appreciation of her suffering.
It is unbelievable that the forum sees fit to allow comparison between one missing person and another particularly in the pejorative fashion demonstrated.
In my opinion it is a cynical and exceedingly tasteless exercise.
There are two missing persons being used as pawns.
There are two grieving families being used without any thought or sensitivity simply to promote an agenda.
It is a real exercise in cynicism, in my opinion, which taken in conjunction with numerous complaining petitions, an unheard of number of pejorative FOI requests on every aspect of Madeleine's case directs a beacon at the antipathy shown not only to the McCann family but to Madeleine herself.
There is an element of what might, loosely, be called 'selfishness' in literally any, decent, caring, parent who finds him or herself in the position of Kerry Needham, or Kate and Gerry McCannn, which is that while they will, of course, be sensitive and sympathetic to the plight of other parents (the more so for having experienced something similar themselves) they will pull out all the stops, over and above all other considerations, for
their child.
That is true of Kerry Needham.
That is true of Kate McCann
That is true of Gerry McCann.
It is true (as I say) of
any decent parent.
I, too, find this thread crass and insensitive.
