*Any* young kid going missing is a tragedy - both for the kid and for the 
parents.

How would *you* feel if you had lost a 3-year-old - even if (maybe 
particularly if) you felt at least partially to blame for it happening?

There is no doubt but that this case has been over-hyped in the media - and 
people (not me!) have felt disposed to contribute towards measures aimed at 
finding the kid. I'm personally not over-fussed about how the money is used. 
No amount of money can compensate for the loss of a kid.
