Thanks Ythanside, there are a few snobs without substance on here. If the parents had been working class and out drinking beer after a football match they would be getting the wrath of this crew.

As you correctly pointed out eanjay the parents do not take responsibility for their actions. To leave three children alone one night is scandalous. To admit to leaving three children every night of their holiday is beyond words.

Children are entitled to protection even if the parents are incapable of providing it.
