But I get the feeling that if Kate McCann had hired a baby-sitter, then found them sitting in a bar 100m away getting bladdered, she would have kicked the living sh!t out of themComment

"You should never leave babies or young children alone in the home"-NSPCC
"leaving young children alone at night even if they are asleep is very risky"-NSPCC
Most parents would not think the above optional dependent on their social calendar.
In General some of the pro/devil's advocate arguments put forward in this thread could equally be applied to something like drink driving. Maybe 1 or 2 pints is OK, so why isn't 3 or 4, 6 or 7? We all know someone who has done it, peer pressure, it's never caused a problem a before. We all make mistakes, Who are we to judge others? Maybe there were no taxis available? How did they know someone would get run over? BS and just poor excuses for poor behaviour.Last edited by ZARDOZ; 7 October 2014, 01:11.Comment

The law is, IIRC, that if harm comes to a child while they've been left alone, you can be prosecuted.Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!Comment
