As the McCann saga once again rears its
ugly head in the sad case of their daughter
Madelaine (left) and her disappearance on 3 May 2007 one
can only sympathise. But in my case all my sympathies are for the
missing daughter herself.
Clarence Mitchell, who was in charge of the donating
thousands offered to the McCanns is thrilled with the number of
people offering their support, and so he should be.
But now the cupboard is once again bare he will be hoping for more
wealthy donors.
Both
Gerry and Kate McCann are doctors and should at least
bear part of the burden, after all it was they that left their three
children alone at night in an unlocked
apartment.
As a parent myself I feel a lot of sympathy, especially for Maddie
who, along with the others should at the very least have had some
sort of supervision.
We have all, at sometime or other, been on holiday with our children
and gone out at night but, if failing to take them with us, we made
sure we had an appropriate baby sitter.
So, while I can feel for the McCanns I can feel more, a lot more,
sympathy for Maddie and cannot help wondering if all this re-opening
of the hunt for Maddie is at the very least pricing the consciences
of the parents Kate and Gerry McCann.
If not, it should certainly do so.
