Pointing out that leaving three small children home alone is inacceptable is perfectly valid. Not only because it's true, but because it contradicts the image the parents and their friends projected. "They are very, very anxious parents and very careful..." said a friend. Talk is cheap and actions speak louder than words. There's no such thing as a perfect parent - even those with enough sense to know that a babysitters a good idea for small children aren't perfect, just sensible enough to know why.
THEY WERE AT HOME.
Within their holiday home gardens and only about 50 metres away within good eyesight range of the group. They would have heard Madeleine had she yelled them from the patio balcony and she would also have been able to hear them .... Gerry especially.
When our children were little, we would chat over the back fence to golfer friends who were using the practice area immediately behind us.
Our garden was 50 metres long. Neither of our children had lungs like Madeleine seems to have , yet we could hear them if they called. No problem. And the back door was open with the side gate only on the latch.
Somebody has spread awful distortions about the whole situation and this basically went on until I instructed posters how they could measure distances on Google Earth and confirm the correct distances.
There has been a concerted effort to discredit The Mccanns. Lies everywhere. They did an impressive job and coloured the situation black for The Mccanns
I wonder why there was such a concerted effort? And who did it.
Well actually I KNOW and I know who was behind it all and why.
