Hi 17pdr,
Before answering your 'question' I looked at your question history - would you consider you are more than a little obsessed with the McCann thing?
Would you agree that you (like me) know little by way of verifiable facts and the rest is nothing more than the idle speculation in the press on the issue?
Now to the question - I disagree with your (implied) proposition that leaving two young children asleep in a bedroom whilst eating nearby is neglect.
Neglect has a very specific legal definition and is a criminal offence.
If you presecuted on this basis, 95% of parents in the UK would be guilty - but you'd be laughed out of court.
I can only conclude that you either do not have children or yours are watched to the point of obessiveness by you. You certainly have no comprehension of the meaning of 'neglect'.
As to the 'question' "Gerry still doesn't get it" - may I suggest that is YOU who does not 'get it'.
You are using the abduction and disappearance of a child to run a series of alleagtions masquerading as questions, without any FACTUAL basis.
I regret to say you are either obsessive, rather twisted or simply deluded.
Either way, I suggest you move on to conspiracies surrounding the death of Diana, or UFO's or something slightly less vouyeuristic.
Edit:
OK: I consider it wrong for you to use the disappearance of a child; who you do not know, whose parents you have never met; whose wider friends and family you have never met; to wallow in your own conspiracy theories and self-indulgent childcare opinions. Presumably, on your definition, therefore you are also guilty of neglect. |

It's still neglect whatever he say's. No-one would leave 3 kids under four in a house at all!!! |

for two alleged intelligent people to do what they did
some thing dose not ring true in this case
attack is the best form of defence maybe |

there are always people who can justify just about any action they may or may not take.
they are the very worst kind of people.
enough said i think |

yes if kids are playing upstairs and your mowing the lawn thats one thing
pi**ing off out for a night on the pop leaving them home alone is so totally another matter thats down right neglect !!!
nothing can justify leaving young kiddies unattended just so you can razz it up.
one of the things you bear in mind when having children is no more nights out without getting sitters etc |

It's not that he doesn't get it, nor is leaving children alone upstairs while you mow the grass neglect. His issue is that he is in denial. Leaving your kids to sleep for half an hour while you do the garden is bordering on ok as long as you check up on them now and again - leaving the house entirely and going out to have a meal with your mates is simply in a different category. What he needs to do is face up to this and admit that his actions were ludicrous. |

I don't think he's right. Very young children can get up to quite a bit in half an hour. There was a case not so long ago when 2 very young children were playing upstairs whilst their mother was downstairs: there was some sort of accident, I can't remember the details now, but one of the children died.
You just can't take kids for granted. |

He does go on to say " Unfortunately we were proved wrong." Too little - Too late! this guy has finally realise the depth of feelings regarding their actions and is going for "damage limitation. What a weasel! What a toe-rag! |

In this age we live in. I don`t think anyone leaves their door unlocked, anytime, not in this country anyway. |

i get his point there, lots of people will leave there children in there own house to put out buckets etc at least your not far and can hear them still, BUT what he done on holiday was totally different to that he left his children in a room, strange country to socialise with friends thats not right and he needs to understand that doing so is not right |

I think it is becoming more and more evident to the McCanns that their is a significant amount of blame amounting on their part as to their daughters abduction. His actions are certainly not justifiable to anyone who is a parent; leaving their children all under the age of four is definably against the psychology of human nature.
He has one point, when they are at home you don't need to drag them around with you; quoted from the above "you'd never bat an eyelid," but this is evident because he is in his own culture and abode. In a different country, different culture and society this is not the case.
To conclude, Gerry McCann does get it, yes he may try to justify his neglect with what can only be seen as excuses but, a certain amount of acceptance has to have weighed upon him and maybe after four months of his daughter going missing he has prepared himself for the worst. I feel as if he is now working on saving his own person from the slander and hatred that he and his wife will experience as more time passes without the discovery of their daughter. |

I guess it would take a long time to mow the grass in a garden so large it took you five minutes to walk to the house...
The net is closing in on Gerry and he's getting nervous. |
|
Where's that pesky fraggle?
|
If you were in your own home you might also have a baby monitor if your kids were sleeping - plus its very unlikely you'd be mowing the lawn at night isn't it?????? |

I'm sick of this whole story.
But he does have a point, do you take your children EVERYWHERE with you? If you pop out to the garden shed do you lug all your kids down there with you?
He shouldn't have left them alone while in another country. Thats for sure. But oh well, he paid the ultimate price. Hopefully the kid is alright though... |

He may have a point. However, if I'm in my front garden the back door is locked and vice versa. I also doubt the he'd be mowing his lawn with the assistance of his wife and nanny. |

You really should move on from this and try and get a life. |

Not wishing to defend them he does have a point, many people do leave their children alone for periods of time, often without checking on them, I'm not saying that's right, and if they did have a hand in the daughters disappearance, as the tabloids seem to think by drugging them, then one would hope the law will bring them to justice. |
