Kids go missing all the time. Why bother writing Breaking News on a post about a girl who went missing 4 years ago who 'might' have been found. Even though, by skimming thru the replies, it seems the punpic oppinion is that the parents are the ones to blame.

Well, if that's the case then it shows just how many folk are walking this earth who are missing empathy and compassion for their fellow beings, and how backward a race we still are. Missing empathy goes under psychopath btw. But I'll bet anything, that if any one of those uncaring millions had a similar thing happen in their family they'd be crying out for folk who DO care to be on their side. Thank goodness there are some.
No. Lacking empathy would be believing the official McCann story and not caring for the girl, that isn't my position, I believe they killed their daughter! That isn't lacking empathy, that's having a viewpoint different to your own.
What you're doing is like saying people who support Mumia Abu-Jamal are in favour of cop-killing - While completely missing the fact that people who support Mumia don't believe him to have killed the police officer, and therefore such claims against the person are fallacious.
OR that people who don't believe the official story on 9/11 cannot empathise, care nothing for those dead and are therefore psychopaths. It's just a bogus and idiotic line of reasoning. And I'm offended you'd put that on me, without knowing a single thing about me, actually.
My ability to empathise is just fine. But so is my ability to use reason. All the evidence points to the fact the McCanns are a bunch of liars. I propose they're psychopaths.

I was thinking maybe the kid was kidnapped until I saw them "celebrating their daughter's disappearance" with a book in front of them.... BS.
To be honest I think that poor Maddie has become the McCanns business venture..
Give your kid an overdose, bury her somwhere, make up a bs story, sell it to the media, then your quids inn...
These pair should have done jail time at least for gross neglect.
Most couples who have lost a kid in any situation tend to split up, but there is nothing like a cash cow and nasty shared secret to keep a family together hey?
This isn't that odd. There was no struggle. Why would an abductor stop to pull out bits of hair or leave evidence? They are in and they are out as quickly.
1) There was actually no physical evidence of anyone breaking in to the holiday apartment, not a shred ! It was the British media and the McCann's that said Madeline was 'taken'.
It could have been a little before or a little after the intruder was inside and "looking" into a room indicates nothing to condemn the parents for.
2) Gerry McCann's statements about what happened would have given an intruder a matter of minutes to break in and take the sleeping girl and then climb away through a window with her undetected. Gerry Mccann was supposedly looking into the children's bedroom in the apartment whilst this intruder(s) hid in the tiny bedroom for some of this time.
3) The Mccanns (and the other Doctors they were dining with on the night) all changed their stories repeatedly of what had happened that night. All these doctors left their children alone whilst they had dinner and drunk, like the Mccanns.
I believe Gerry came up with the plan to cover up the real circumstances of Madeline's death so they (or maybe just Kate) would not be separated from their remaining children
4)Kate Mccann repeatedly checks the breathing of her younger children after declaring Madeline was 'taken'
5) Kate Mccann refuses to answer the police's 48 questions about her daughter's disappearance. Questions such as where Kate had looked for her daughter, why she left the twins alone in the apt. after finding Madeline gone,'was Madeline a difficult child? and did you consider giving Madeline to relatives to raise?
6) Kate Mccann washes her missing daughters precious 'cuddlecat' toy more than once before the police can carry out DNA tests.
See above
7) The Mccanns never once actually joined the search for Madeline.
8) Gerry removes a defective fridge from their rented hoilday apt. , takes it to a local dump and buys a new fridge at his own expense.
9) cadaver scent is detected in the Mccann's rental car and apartment and on Kate's clothes.
10) Mccanns leave same rental car to bake in hot sun with doors and windows open for days. 11) Mccanns were given key to local church so they could access it 24 hours a day. 12) The priest who gave Mccanns the church key said he had 'been decieved' by them and would never reveal what he new. 13) Kate and Gerry release photos of Madeline's distinctive eye against police advice that any abductor would kill a child with such a unique condition.

No but what sort of a person would you be to suggest such a thing IF it is not true? A real cretin eh?
You suggesting people don't kidnap children and is that what is so difficult to believe? Or are you simply so envious of this loving family you want to tarnish the name of parents who have already suffered the greatest injury, losing a child and so now you want to punish them more?
Really that's more like it isn't it? I would stake my life in a second on the fact these two played no part in the death and abduction of their own child, except to let her sleep a distance away where someone could enter and steal the girl. It is not that uncommon to enter a unhinged bedroom window and steal children from her beds.
They were busy doing things in the company of others and since there flat was nearby they left the kids in it. At no point did the parents vanish so they could go and bury a child. I think you re ridiculous and since there is a lot in a name, I even have a clue why. Scorpion and the frog comes to mind. It's your nature.
And of course you may THINK whatever you want....but that doesn't make it true.

Clearly you despise these parents for the WAY they cared for their children and perhaps they are to shoulder some blame but to leap at accusing them of doing it themselves is a stretch. Your data on child abductions is only partially true. Child abductions have gone up 400 percent in recent years. In many cases it is the opposing parents but in as many cases it is not, it is a stranger or an acquaintance that abducts the child.
