nobody is blaiming the mother,,,, but you do have to take some form of responsability with a 2 year old

wasnt the little one on cctv outside a butchers shop on hes own,,,, so he wasnt lured away from the mum withing seconds but the mum lost him if i recall

my parents lost me once in a town centre,,, i was shit scared and remember it well.... i went back into the local cafe we always went to and waited for them

but my parents also let me walk to school on my own from the age of 7 and home on my own,,,, and my sister used to walk me to school when i was 5 and she was 7 and it was a good 1 mile walk too, my parents where VERY laied back about us, used to come home at 10 pm with no issues,,,, used to do night fishing from the age of 13 blah blah blah

but and this is the honest truth, they DID NOT pay enough attention to us and was too busy in there own world to worry about there kids

maybe this is why im different, my missus,,,, fuck knows what happened to her but shes MEGGA parranoid,,,,,, i remember when she wouldnt let her play in her own bedroom unless nikki was upstairs and she wont leave the bath room if Elise is in the bath incase she slips and downs,,,,, SHES 5 YEARS OLD TOO, WAY to over protective my missus is,,,,, wont let her use climbing frames in case she slips and hurts her self, wont let her play with big kids incase she is knocked down,,, i could go on for even longer how bad she is
