Never "I want my little girl back", or "I'll tear apart the guy who took her if she's not returned safely", or "I'll never rest until Elizabeth is home again".
Good points. Most fathers -- and mothers, for that matter -- would have been furious at the get-go. Never saw that with this couple.
In a couple of lengthy t.v. interviews, Patsy Ramsey, in denying her guilt, referred to JonBenet as "that child"..." "I would not hurt that child," or something to that effect.
I was relieved when she finally said, "my daughter" in a later interview.
