i want to know how none of his siblings noticed and followed, would he not have to share a room? Or if the dad took him why he didn't take the twin?
Doesn't make sense.. during the day maybe, just maybe a child would leave the home and go wandering but what child would want to go outside in the dark? or cold? what small child would be willing and able enough to wait to be put to bed, sneak out and take his coat and shoes? that is what a teen/older child might plan - toddlers don't plan.
I used to babysit toddlers that were quite smart, observant, outgoing and would get up to all sorts and yet, if they were to go outside in the cold their thought would be to put on a tshirt/jumper but wouldn't extend to a coat. And to shove on wellies or big brothers shoes...
i'm not convinced the father snatched him though. if the dad was going to take a chance, surely he'd had a better plan and would've taken both twins (and the others if they are his). i keep thinking maybe the kid wandered into the hallway (since the neighbour said he plays on the stairs) and was snatched by someone else. Also, if the child did leave on his own - what 3 year old would think to open the door quietly and close it behind them quietly. It was night - wouldn't all the locks be done, i would assume more than just a key.
I really hate to said such awful things but i feel like there's more to what's being said.
i was also shocked that the mother didn't check on the 3yr old between 9pm and the next day, i check on my pets more, but i don't know what the normal amount people check their sleeping kids. I was really hopeful this morning, they didn't seem too concerned but now the more detail they share the more it doesn't make logical sense.
