On November 25 2005 My kids father Ryan M. Bell Sr. of Chicago Il. ask me if he can visit with his children after doing 2 & 1/2 years in Ohio prison. I let him and he never brought the children back. I have spoken to them several times when his alleged wife Penny Hersey got mad and told me that she was going to get the kids back to me but now they have their phone turned off and my older daughter aunt told me that Childsupport papers have just come to her house. I cant wait until she gets them to me in the mail. Mabye they will have an address on them. This crackhead babydaddy of mine took them so he could get a check to buy dope and now he wants money for the kids he stole from me. Are you freaking kidding me? I have exuasted all possibilities with this boy. All I want is my kids back. If I had money for a lawyer I would have been had my children back. What should I do?

In November 2005, your children's father came to pick them up and never returned them and it is now May 5, 2007? It has been a year and six months and you haven't hired an attorney to get your children back?
Do you have legal custody of your children? You can go and get free legal advise through social services to get help in getting your children back. You may even find on line services that provide legal representation for less to nothing.
As long as it has been, you could've signed up for pro-bono and waited for an attorney to become available.
What steps have you taken in trying to locate your children?

And you didn't call the police on him for kidnapping because???? If you did this, then there should be a warrant for his arrest. And him trying to get child support from you, will draw attention to him. So what's really going on here? We are not getting the whole story.
Add: I have read all of your questions. My son's father took him once. The police told me the same thing. This also happened to my cousin. They told her the same thing as well. No custody order, they are not getting involved. I got my son back because his dad just brought him back (thank God). My cousin actually had to go to court and file for custody (she knew his address and all his info because he was already on child support). They ended up getting joint custody.
Your problem is you can't find him. Of course if you had an address all you would have to do is file for custody and they would serve him. Then if he ran it would become a police matter. But for now, you need to get the word out. Either the News stations or THE INTERNET! That's the best way. Why because when people send out forwards they usually circle the globe. You need pics of your kids, their names (because maybe their school teacher will get the email), and you need the father's name and any of his relatives' names. Put it all in an email (if you need help writing the email hit me up). Then send it to everyone in your address book online. Then they will forward it and so on.......

A counselor or a mediator needs to be involved in this because you have way too much going on. it doesn't surprise me that Mercedes feels left out. In big families, it's not unusual for some kids to kinda fall through the cracks. Also, I'm sure it was very weird for her boyfriend to suddenly be living in the same house. I believe that relationship needs to stop right now...it should have stopped when he became your child instead of a friend's child. "Controlling a situation without making them feel like they're controlled"...what is that? Who cares if you and your husband decide to be strict with Mercedes and Brady and they feel "controlled." They're children...there are supposed to be rules and some sort of control. I'm surprised you didn't tell them that, now that circumstances have changed, no more dating! Period! It's inappropriate for him to be nearer to her than the other kids..and they can kiss and cuddle in the house?! No way....it doesn't surprise me that things have escalated or that Brady feels trapped between you and your daughter. I suggest counseling for both of them and for you and your husband to participate as well. If you let this go, it will only get worse and I doubt you want to have Mercedes on drugs or drinking to deal with her issues or have her getting pregnant by Brady.

if you are in serious need please call the police or the FBI, this is kidnapping. He can not take your children without a custody hearing where he was granted full custody. Call the Chicago newspaper or local news, a lawyer will see and offer services. Please take this serious, its been almost 2 years. My father in law is a detective I will ask him to look into this (by looking up the guys name). This is very upsetting to me I have kids and can not imagine being without them or having them taken away from me.I am so sorry and you all will be in our prayers

How long did you wait before you called the police? I hope you called the police. And call children services, He has a criminal record so how could he be a better fit.
If I had to put on boxing gloves to get my kids back thats what I'll do. Be careful

Who has legal custody of the children? IF you do then file kidnapping charges if he was supposed to return the children to you and didn't. Why you haven't done so before now is beyond comprehension. (Which is what the court is going to ask you as well)

Either work 3 jobs and make the money you need to get an attorney or seek financial help to get one if you qualify.
In the meantime try to locate them through search engines and the internet and through schools.
If it were my children I would be working 6 jobs to get the money.

Contact the police as this is kipnanpping especially if he took the children across state lines. Go to Family Court and see if they can help you. If you were awarded custody the Family Court will help you. Don't just sit on your hands, fight, fight, fight. Find an attorney who will work with you .....

Get a public defender and file kidnapping charges on him. This is too wild to be considered for real.
I knew it wasn't for real...look at this answer she gave to another question! Don't judge people by their race, judge them by their actions...I think your actions speak quite loudly here...
Its not just the media. Its blacck women that are more jealous of other black women then anyone I have ever seen. I am black and attractive and women seem to find a reason not to hang around me. I have a nice personality and I have four children and a man and they still find it deep down inside to dislike me. They attack my words and change them around. The white women I hang are just as sweet to me and my family. Dont judge people by a race. Judge people by their own actions.

Who has custody of the children if no one then he did not kidnap them and there is nothing the authorities can do to help you.
