Ok, this has really been bugging me for a while. I have a 4 year old son with my baby;s mother. We have joint custody and she is the рrimary рarent. I have keрt uр with child suррort and I visit him all the time. I have been a good father to my son and he loves me. Here;s the issue, my ex converted from catholicism to islam about 2 years ago. I have no idea why, but it is now starting to make sense. She has suррosedly met some muslim guy online and wants to travel to kuwait to marry him (she has NEVER met the guy in рerson) and she wants to take my son with him! I do NOT consent to this and do NOT suррort this. He has a family here. He has friends, he is already established.She wants to take him no matter what I say. Can she LEGALLY do this? We live in Texas.
A parent cannot remove the child from the state unless you both sign some type of waiver form and sometimes a judge has to approve it. I wanted to travel overseas one time but couldn;t because the father would not sign the forms.
Oh dear Lord..I do not wish to scare you, but you need to speak to a lawyer asap for the well being of your son. My mom had a friend in a similar story..by the time her daughter was in land she was unable to bring her back home to Canada..She had to hire some Private Investigators to bring her back home. I am not joking, this is not a farce. She was married, to this man, he took the daughter..mom was not with them when they traveled. Daughter was not seen for years.Please you must act quickly. Do not sign any papers allowing your son to travel. It may be his only protection.Do not wait, your son depends on you, he is only 4 years old, I am not condemning the man she met, but last year there was another story like this one on Dr Phil as well. Once your are in another country you must obey their rules! They are dictators..You can even look it up on the net to see how they live.Please act quickly hurry! I will pray for you and your son.
Absolutely NOT!! It is against the law to remove any child from any state without the consent of BOTH parents! It should say that somewhere in your divorce papers! You need to tell her that you know what she is up to and that you will NOT allow it! Best of luck!
i would call ur lawyers today as soon as they open. why is she willing to put ur son through that part of the world. and with some guy she never met.
Oh i know alot about this because i was married to a Saudi, for 6 years so this is from personal experience and also im arab ( but australian born) aswell so i know the culture.Firstable, go see a lawyer now and tell them her plans. Here in australia a parent cannot take the child out of the country without you signing the passport or permission. She cant take him without ur consent. Make a point this is one of the most strictist middle eastern countries she is wanting to take your son. Do you know that if she marries a saudit or kuwaiti national and goes to live with him, she may not be able to ever leave this country without her husbands permission? This is the law there. please google it you will find alot of informations.Kuwait is basically the same.I went to saudi and lived there for 3 years, my son was born there, when i divorced i went thru alot of hell trying to get out of there, i had the embassy get me a passort, and i had to file for divorce here because the saudi courts would not allow me to divorce him there. I left without my son and ive been dealing with this for the last 2 years now, although i meet them in UAE 3 times a year for access ( holiday)this is serious so do something very soon to stop her. Just say he marries her, she is married by islam and possibly his countries laws also, if she takes your son and her husband says no you cant leave my country then how are you going to get access to your son. Once she is there, you cannot argue with their laws, regarless its your child or not.They just dont care. Good luck.Please feel free to contact me if you wish for informations or advice…and i just realised its KUWAIT she is wanting to take him, my bad lol But kuwait is just the same and i urge anywoman who meets a guy online to be aware of how his country works
