Such a very very sad article.

Just terrible. Heartbreaking.

[Firefly]

Very sad, poor little girl.

Very sad but what were the parents and relatives doing , obvioulsly not watching the child

[WHL]

Sad so sad, but please dont start having a go at the parents, without knowing the facts, it only takes a minute for a tragedy to happen.

Very true. And especially true when there is a whole family involved. It's all too easy in such a situation to assume that another member of the party knows where the child is.

And presumably the hotel's life guard,if they have one, wasn't there ....

Were you a Rottweiler in a previous life ?

Did you read the article ? It say’s a Lifeguard was called – I would assume they did not go the next town to call one – and there could be many reasons why the Lifeguard did not see the incident – Maybe he was watching the kids pool – As WHL say’s don’t point the finger without knowing the fact’s
And why do you always have such a negative tone on every single thing to do with Paphos or Cyprus ? If its such a terrible place why are you living there

Oh she'll trot out her usual tired excuses, but we see what we see.

I see this thread has taken exactly the same turn as that on the CM Facebook page....

[Jim B]

I understand the little girl was Cypriot.

Very upsetting.

[Kili01]

Yes, it was a terrible incident. Awful for for her friends and family.
Boy are some members truly vindictive..unfortunately. its a very negative aspect of this board.

Yes really really sad. I can think of at least a couple of occasions when we 'lost' one of our kids for a short while................fortunately no harm came to them. I just happens and people shouldn't assume it is down to bad parenting.
