What recommendations do you have for someone whose spouse was arrested during her 6th month of pregnancy, stayed 2 days in jail due to her BAC of .247 (determined by her visit from jail to the local hospital) and later charged with 3rd degree assault followed by probation. ubsequently the mother went on a trip to visit relatives promising to return in one week. One and one-half years later she has now filed for divorce. She was asked repeatedly to come back home to no avail, and even denied visitation until recently when the court ordered visitation times. The child is behind in speech, development and not potty trained and just recently learned to start wiping herself. Is this parental kidnapping, child abuse, child neglect, ???? And if so, should charges be filed in the state in which I reside or in the state the mother lives in?
Me or my baby’s father has not been to court to determine who has custody if I decide to move from California to Arizona is that considered parental kidnapping? Can I go to jail for this?
Two weeks after I found out I was pregnant I found out my boyfriend was using drugs and I asked him to move out and we broke up. My question now is, if I put his name on the birth certificate so my child will have access to his fathers identity when he or she grows up, can I still move back to California to be near my family after the baby is born without having to worry about future kidnapping charges? Even though right now the father doesn’t appear to be concerned about either of us, people do change and I don’t want to have to worry about him coming after me someday.
What happens if the custodial mother relocates the children without telling the father?
If a minor child moves in with a non-custodial parent in a different state and lives there for over a year, does that make the child a resident of the new state?
When I moved to Georgia, I let my daughter’s father keep her until I got on my feet there in Georgia. He was arrested, and his mother said that she would take care of my daughter until I was financially able to take my daughter back. It has been 9 months now and I want my daughter back with me.
What happens if the mother takes off with the child with no warning or consent from the father, across the U.S.? It may be considered parental kidnapping.
