I have to say I'm more and more stunned by the lack of compassion demonstrated on this subject. This isn't a pet cat we are talking about. :cry:

Oh I reckon there is plenty of compassion for the poor wee lass - I really really hope she is found safe and well although this is increasingly unlikely as time passes :(
I think the main issue with the parents is their new found celebrity status - I mean, come on - an audience with the Pope ?
If that was my wee yin I would be pounding the streets of Portugal day and night looking for her - not off on my jollies
The other problem is unfortunately kids go missing all the time - only their parents dont have slush funds to spend looking for the kids - oh, and it probably wasn't the parents fault that the kids went missing in the first place :x
Bottom line is if that had been a couple on benefits or God forbid a single mum, then the press would have turned on the parents right away !
As professional people I hope they can live with themselves for what has happened
Poor wee soul

Well, the fund stands at £375,000, and the reward is £2.5m, so do you really think people aren't digging deep? I just can't really see how £375,000 is going to help get the child back.
Having seen children in various parts of the world living in abject poverty I find it odd that people will spend hundreds of thousands to try to save one British child whilst overlooking the millions of others around the world who are starving, disease-ridden, torn apart by war, etc. Saving lives is an honourable thing to be doing, but why the imbalance?

Sooner or later tho and its been a month now there going to have to come to terms that there never going to see her again! Surly all this is just putting off the grieving so to speak, or are they going to continue searching for years driving themselves insane and being no good for there other kids who will just feel neglected now and in later life!
Why don't you all plaster your cars with all the kids that have gone missing and not being found in the last 2 months, you might not even fit them all on!
Or why not after this has passed its sell by date, have your care re-done with another missing childs photos.......
Whats so important about this case.... Youc could even help out looking for missing kids in YOUR area.
And in all honesty would it be fair for the rest of her life if she's found alive to have to grow up wrapped in cotton wool with the constant reminder of what some sick perv did to her years ago. With it effecting every choice she makes in life and creeping into every dream she has!
I hope she is found alive and well BUT that doesn't mean all will be well she'll be stuck with it haunting her for the rest of her life....
Please don't take this as im being funny because im not... But im also saying what a hell of alot of other people will be thinking.
*prepares to be flamed*

They obviously weren't too bothered about there little girl before she went missing...not PC but thats my opinion.
As has been said, if the little girl came from a less privelaged family the finger would be pointed at the parents.
I do so hope they find her safe & well & that the reward money gets paid to a worthy charity like NSPCC who can put children into safe places where they are not neglected or worse...then take action against the offending so called responsible adults.
Rant over!
