A Room With A View...

Lying that they weren't the ones that did something wrong.

This is all about " distancing language"
Using the words " a little girl"
Faithlilly suggested that the word daughter should have been used .
I wondered what the implication of not using.the word daughter.did mean.

Why do you think she didn’t say daughter ?

There is a fly in this ointment, however. Why change the story to 'break in'? That would prove a knee-jerk reaction to finding their daughter missing i.e. they had no prior knowledge of her being missing up to the point Kate raised the alarm. The revisionism is only required in this instance and not if something else occurred and they had time to create a narrative.

We are not privvy to knowing what time MBM disappeared. Let us thnk of some reasons for claiming abduction- T9 knew what would happen if they were in the UK. They had to think about their families reaction as has been mentioned, what about being arrested, what about losing your career/job. The abduction story was their life saver, it removed any guilt they may have had, if fact it worked out brilliantly for them.

Faith is correct- if they had said they left the children alone to go wine and dine and left a door unlocked for maddie to go get them- anything could have happened- The public woulod not have been to generious IMO.If you believe the abduction and woke and wandered theory that is.

It implies that they were/are a pair of sociopathics - IMO

Don’t worry I know it’s not your fault.

Can I ask, is it mature to make provocative posts followed by a fluttering eye emoticon?  Just so that I know which emoticons I can and cannot use when I’m a grown up.  Thanks.

Especially in many threads the 'supporters' are distraught about using MBM. Claiming it is disrespectful. Why would a mother not call her daughter by her name or pet name, or my daughter.

Totally distancing themselves. They used that termanology  many times. I noticed that back in the day.

Many times?  Please provide some cites, thanks.

You are the poster who has attached a great importance to this, not myself.
I do feel it is for you to explain the significance of why she didn't say daughter.
I haven't given this piece of evidence, and I assume that you do believe it to be significant, any great thought at all.

Bored now.

Can I ask, do the McCanns rarely refer to their daughter by name or by referring to her as their daughter?  Because if so then maybe it’s significant, so why not start a new thread listing all the times they have referred to her as “that missing child” or “a little girl we knew” or some such?

Of course you are

Interesting.
Both sociopaths.
Possibly still are, once a sociopath, always a sociopath!
Unless there is a course of treatment of.course?

Might as well.
Someone will have done the research.

We could certainly attach them to the electrodes and see what happens

Not using your daughter’s name is bad enough...forgetting altogether where the sightings were that had given you the most hope of finding her is just dumbfounding.
