Should The McCann Twins Be Tabloid Fodder ?

[Jean-Pierre]

Look it up jp.

I know the personality type classification.  I was merely wondering why you think its relevant to say the Dr McCann is a type A personality and what point you were trying to make? 

Its not exactly rocket science - and because the medical profession is so competitive at all levels and particularly at consultant level, there are likely to a higher than average number of medics displaying "type A" personality traits.

[Jean-Pierre]

IMO you are merely here to defend the mccanns.

... and no more than that.

Likewise , you 'slag off' those who question the mccanns actions, which clearly are reprehensible.

Don't bother saying that is a personal attack, when you in your previous post attacked me.

Very blatant, and extremely childish of you. IMO of course.

and on the evidence it would seem that you are only here to (a) slag off the McCanns and (b) sneer at and slag at other members who do not share your view of the world in general and this case in particular.  Which is fair enough.  Just seems to be an odd and rather negative way to get your jollies.

On the evidence of those who post here, those points I would say apply to most of those who support the mccanns on here.

i.e. attacking those who don't believe/support abduction.

As to getting jollies, not in the slightest.

If mccann supporters are keen to say that many other people did what the mccanns did, they should back it up with facts, not hyperbole.

Are you saying that child-listening facilities at various hotels / resorts have never existed?

Are you saying that child-listening facilities at various hotels / resorts have never existed?

Quite a difference between 2007 and never.

No.

However, I did ask for cites.

Not the drivel I 've heard repeatedly of 'many other people have done it'.

Child-listening still exists.

Here's one based on a 2-second Google search, presumably at a ski resort in which older family members would be out skiing for several hours at a stretch.

So its not uncommon.

As long as they can ski between 1930 and 2300 it would seem. That's easy for the blind but it might pose problems for the sighted

Fair enough on that example, as infants could be taken into crèches during the day.

However, there was still the evening listening service.

FREE evening Baby-Listening/ Child Patrol Service every night in all our Chalet Hotels, Xtra Chalets and larger chalets, and in all properties on our staff’s one night off per week

it has been backed up and examples given...baby listening services are still being promoted and there has never been a reported serious incident in a child that has been left until Maddie..

Left without a listening service as I recall.

[Jean-Pierre]

I think you recall correctly.

[Carana]

Left without a listening service as I recall.

Which is why they chose their own child-listeing arrangements, as I recall.
