Yup, I calling him callous for leaving the rest of his family to go attend a hockey game. If as you say he was closer to his hockey players rather than to his family that doesn't speak highly for him also. He choose to go to a hockey game rather than comfort the rest of his children - in my mind that doesn't speak highly of his parenting skills either.

No I have been lucky and haven't had a family member disappear. However, when a family member passes in my family, there are about 25-35 people at the hospital/house within 1 hour or so everyone drops what they are doing (including vacation plans) to be with the family to express support or do what they can. I guess I'm fortunate to have a family that thinks that way.

The reporter also thought his attending a game a few hours after being told his daughter disappeared unusual enough that he put it in his story.
