Probably not. But then people who grieve over the loss of a loved one, seldom are able to put their emotions aside to think rationally.
It's why we have judges and courts, who can see both sides of the story.

A. I wouldn't let my child(ren) go on holiday with anyone other than ourselves or my parents.

I think the McCanns did something very foolish. But I also know they are paying the dearest price for that foolishness. All parents have done something risky (and you are lying if you say you haven't) like running into the petrol station to pay, nipping outside the bathroom to answer the phone.

I therefore believe that one instance of foolishness does not make them evil or bad parents. They still deserve our support to help them through this. My heart aches for them. My eldest daughter is the same age as Madeleine, and I would travel the world thousands of times over if it meant it kept the story alive in people's hearts.

I just hope some conclusion is found for them soon and they can begin to come to terms with whatever the outcome is.

No I wouldn't to be honest and I support the parents in terms if them not deserving what they are going through, aswell as being only too aware that I have made many mistakes as a parent. But in all honesty, I would not let my child at that age go on holiday without me even if they were family of mine. But in a straight answer to your question, I would have an awful lot more emotional attachment if it was my child. It would be very a different kettle of fish and the phrase 'you can't compare apples and oranges' springs to mind. While the event is not too different, the circumstances would be the opposite of that.

i dont help or help the McCanns i merely see it objectively from the two aspects. the girl above says she does not even pass into the backyard while her young babies are asleep is somewhat extreme, we can not shop our eyes on our babies 24 hours an afternoon. what they did became incorrect yet till you're like the girl above who does not even pass out into the backyard while the babies are asleep how will we decide them. any ones young babies could desire to be taken contained in direction of the night jointly as we are asleep, so understanding which will you all be up this night staring at over them ? i do no longer think of so, this kin have been being watched and as I even have pronounced before IF the guy accountable broke in with the aid of the lower back window if the mothers and dads were sitting on the front veranda Maddie could have nonetheless been taken exact from under their noses yet i settle for that leaving them so some distance away with the doorways unlocked and out of sight became merely inquiring for difficulty and while the time is sweet this must be investigated. i think of too many ppl at right here see it from the only attitude, i attempt to work out it from the two aspects.

I'm not for or against the McCanns as such. I have my thoughts & opinions on both sides of the fence as it were. I can see points from both sides. But I don't care if the person wanting to take my 3 year old child on holiday is the most trusted person on earth, I still wouldn't allow it.

Anyone that has allowed their child to be taken on holiday by someone other than them (parents) would in fact be signing over all parental rights until that child was returned......I've never been prepared to do that.
Hyperthetically though.....of course I'd go bloody apesh!t if the scenario were true & my child had been abducted while supposedly in the care of someone else......why would I feel sorry for THEM? it would be MY child missing.....not theirs.

EDIT; I just want to add that although I have seen the stupidity of the McCanns actions that night & the apparent injustice of the media not saying outright how stupid their actions were.
I have also since seen the hatred of those baying for nothing less than the McCanns blood.....I wonder to myself - will people only be happy at the prospect that the McCanns were to commit suicide over this very sorry event going on in their lives.
I certainly don't want to associate myself with such a witch hunt.

Sorry, i'm late but better late than never...
What do you mean by "support"?
No one supports the McCanns in leaving their babies unattended that night. We, whom you call McCann supporters, do support THEIR SEARCH for their baby without stooping to bash their every single move CONSEQUENT to that night.

I'd never ever let another family look after my child, forget about take him on holiday...!
I'm a paranoid Mummy & only trust my own Mum with him.

I think what they did was foolish in the extreme. I personally wouldn't leave my girl in any house by herself whether she's asleep or not, but let he without sin cast the first stone. I've done things like leave a sleeping child in the carseat (locked car) while I pay for petrol. I've ran upstairs to get something and got distracted for a minute or two with little one watching tv in the lounge downstairs, forgotten the patio doors were unlocked. I am even more so careful now, perhaps too careful if you can be. BUT I wouldn't say I was a supporter of the McCanns yet I'm not sanctamonious and holier than thou either because I'm sure we've all made wrong decisions at times and boy are they paying for it. Some people seem to relish this situation, with glee they berate the McCann's, loving every minute of anhialating someones character and parenting skills. Are they so perfect? Are any of us? Of course if they took my child and this happened I would be distraught and blame them as I would blame myself for letting the child out of my sight. I'm sure they blame themselves everyday but have to keep strong for the twins and to progress in their media campaign for Maddie. They live with what happened everyday - is that not enough for some people?

You really need to define what you mean by support.
I have always said that i feel the mccanns were neglectful with regard to leaving their child in the way they did.
Yes I think that this obviously contributed in a big way to the child being abducted.
What i am very much against is the postings made by the Armchair Sherlock's which range from restrained innuendo about how the Mccanns were involved in the abduction to out and out accusation of the same.
Also with regard to the Find Madeline campaign i feel that until proof positive is had with regard to the final destination of the majority of the cash raised then people should not make un-founded accusations.
Also I feel that if every parent who has left their child in a neglectful way were to be subjected to some of the punishments as suggested by the McCann Hate campaign members we would as a country be compared to some of the more hard line Islamic states.
Most of the negative stuff posted about the McCanns lacks one thing, and has always lacked one thing, apart form a little compassion that is, and that is PROOF.
Lastly being told that I am a unfit parent because I do not subscribe to the moronic rantings of a bunch of vigilantes does not entice me to subscribe to their arguments.
What sets this country apart from some of the more radical and unjust ones is that we have a system of justice based on the premise that you are innocent untill proven guilty, not a system based on wild accusation and a lack of PROOF.

Human nature always needs someone to blame. Which is why all the hysteria blaming the McCanns. I think the public should focus their need to blame on the person who took Maddy - that seems to have got lost in all the nasty finger pointing!

Any parent who has lost a child under any circumstances, including their own lack of foresight, has my full sympathy! And I am only glad that my mistakes have never resulted in anything worse than a grazed knee!

Oh for God's sake, what kind of moronic question is this?

If I was trusting enough to allow my child to go away with somebody else, then found out they were abducted when they SHOULD have been looking after them I would have torn their heads off......
