I mean, one photo is enough, surely.
We've had about half the family album now, including from 2 years ago.
How is that helping with the search - "Here is what she looked like in 2005"
Bah!

and were more working class they would have been totally pilloried in the press for leaving their children alone in a strange hotel room
but of course they are totally blameless in all this, because it's fine to leave pre-schoolers for a couple of hours while you go and get pissed in a restaurant

They just checked in on the kids every half hour. All a passing crim has to do is work out how often the parents are dropping by then nip in and nab her after the next visit.

Agreed in some ways, but that can't take away
from the fact that she was snatched from a
locked hotel room. Had she had an accident and
died due to parental absence from the room, then
I'd be more than willing to apportion blame. I
don't think it's fair to expect people to foresee
something like this happening though... Just my thoughts.

Why would someone actually take the trouble to break into someone to take the child, when there have to be plenty of easier targets?

I guess proximity to the event and severity of the piss-take are the defining factors.

I even churned out a 'shop or two when they were only reporting it as being very minor...
Funny that the board was awash with 9/11 jokes straight away, in spite of that clearly being very serious indeed.
In spite of that paradox, I have to say I think in general the board's very well moderated...

I'm just hoping for an icon out of it.
Personally I think the parents seem to be a bit too smiley and spend more time in church than I think I'd manage under similar cricumstances.
Smells dodgy.

just sell a made up story to the gutter press about how you knew the parents and how evil (or wonderful, depending on the angle you decide to take) the parents are.
Pretend they treated you in hospitol and you overheard them talking about how much they hate (or love) their kids.

that all of you that are joking about this are not parents. It certainly changes your perspective on stories like this.
On another note, I was reading a book the other day and the author pointed out an oddity in human behaviour. When we hear of less than 10 people dying, we feel sad about it but as soon as the number goes above 10, it actually becomes less sad (unless you know someone involved of course). Maybe it is because it feels less real, and they stop being individuals.
