Yes, it's a terrible thing, but to be strictly accurate: Three-year-old Madeleine McCann from Rothley, Leicestershire disappeared on May 3 when her parents left her in a holiday apartment at night (along with two other young children) without any supervision while they were out enjoying themselves. And, there is a child-minding service available in that holiday complex, but they couldn't even be bothered getting their hands in their pockets to pay for it.
I've no wish to see the child harmed and I certainly hope she is returned safely, but it's a shame her parents didn't act more responsibly. Innocent children rely on their parents to protect them from things like this, and it's a responsibility that comes with having a child.
