I need help!?

Question

My husband took our 2 girls on a holiday to see his parents and they were suppose to come back yesterday, (his family does not like me because I am Catholic and they are Baptist, they have told me plenty of times that I worship satan and my Church is the Church of satan, which is wrong), my husband rang me today and said he is not bringing the girls home, his parents are going to raise them in their Church. He also has gone awol from the Army

I have been praying and crying all day, I am also 2 months pregnant.

I have phoned the Police but all they said they were not in danger

Please I know this might get deleted but could you please offer advice or anything else?

Johnny V I am in Western Australia and they are in NSW

Answer 1

I will not be able to give you any advise, but I can pray for you.

Father God I come to you in the matchless name of Jesus Christ and I lay the lady at the foot of your cross. Please Lord you know the situation and I pray Lord that you will work in her motor in law's and husband's hearts that they will realize that the best thing for them to do is to bring the children back were they belong with the mother and father. I pray for a miracle in this family's lives.
In the name of Jesus our Savior and redeemer.

Amen

Answer 2

I'm so praying for you.

That's so not fair.

I've never had kids. (not married) But I want them so badly.
And there's nothing wrong with being Catholic.

You do need to get a lawyer quickly before they do something through the courts themselves. Sometimes (depending where you are) the grandparents have more rights. You also need to get in touch with someone who's had experience with the court system in the place where you live and the place where their grandparents live because some courts are biased and will rule in favor of a certain party no matter how bad they are. (I've had experience with that)

The courts will most likely be held where the girls are living at the time though. (if the laws haven't changed in the last ten years)

Also you might need to do it soon because your husband is awol he might try to go to Canada or Mexico. (You would know if he would attempt that) He may decide to take the girls with him so time is of the essence.

You poor thing. Say a novena to St. Jude. I'll say one for you.

I'd also spend a lot of time with a friend so the stress and depression won't take as much of a toll.

Answer 3

If you have custody of the children then there should be an outstanding court order in place. If you do not have custody, then you need to start proceedings right away before they do.

Get the upper hand first before they get an order. Get an attorney quickly and get an order as fast as you can against them that would force them to bring the girls back home, but you need to act fast and do this before they do. If you don't they're going to get an order first and then you'd have to appeal it, etc., and appeals can take long times.

Right now, you call in the morning to the police chief and let him know that you were deceived by your ex and there was an agreement to bring the girls home, that they have been kidnapped by his parents and him.

I know you know this, but you need to get an attorney fast and you need law enforcement working on this with you. What state are they in? Call a family lawyer fast.

EDIT: Contact his COMMANDING OFFICER in the Army. Let him know where your ex is and that he has kidnapped your kids. They will go there and get him and return your kids to you. His parents cannot keep your OWN children, so when they arrest him, then you be right there in their presence to take your children back! Also, if you can have someone bring a camcorder to record all of it for a judge. Then after you get them back, get a RESTRAINING ORDER fast and also, any sort of order you can get from the Army banning him AND HIS PARENTS from any contact with your girls. This is best until you can see that he is changed. Problem is, this kind of guy doesn't change often. Wow, you are forced in a position to use some sort of force it seems to protect yourself.

You must not let your guard down. You need to be there when they get him for AWOL, so you can get your kids. This might involve calling law enforcement to be there simultaneously.

I am not Catholic by any means, but still what he is doing is so wrong; very very wrong. Write to me if you want. That is a lowly and despicable thing they are doing, just low.

Answer 4

It is so very sad, that once again religions are against each other. I am so sorry for what has happened. Get a lawyer immediately, You are the mother and you have rights. If you cannot afford a lawyer yourself, go to Legal Aid and they will give you one free. They are your children, fight for them. Don't bring religion into it, let them be the ones that are the judge mental ones. Be positive in all you say and get legal help immediately. Let me know how it goes through e-mailing me on Answers. My son is a lawyer, but we live in Canada and I would not be able to help you because of American Law. But I could make inquiries for you if you need help.
Keep calm, remember the baby you are carrying. You must not get agitated and angry or it will effect the baby. I am so tired of hearing people battling over whose relligion is right. Would Jesus have advised your husband to do what he did. I can guarantee that he would NOT have.
You need legal help, immediately, get to a lawyer quickly.
Love and success to you. What does this father do in the army with his bias, prejudiced and judgement about others. I would not like to be around him in his "soldiers uniform". Fighting for the good of his country, what a hypocrate. One of the above answers to your question is right on. They state that because he awol the army could deal with him. Go to the army NOW and report him. However, also look after yourself because if he gets angry at you, Baptist or not, his true colors may come out and he may come after you. Can you go to your parents house, do you have close friends to go to for a while. You must think clearly and move fast.

Answer 5

You sound very devoted to your religion. And I know what the Catholic Church's attitude towards divorce is. But if you want your children you need to get tough. Get yourself a good divorce lawyer and go after him. Do everything you can to get your children back. Call his commander and give him your husbands parent's address.

I usually believe parents should get equal visitation. But once a parent does something like this, the chances are slim he will follow a parenting plan.

Answer 6

Man! The things some 'Christians' do!

Don't just ask in this category, go to Police and stuff like that and get advice as well.

I'm really sorry to hear about this. But I think you should get more people involved. This is a SERIOUS thing this guy has done. Call the cops, call a lawyer, call a representative of the army if you have to. I'll try to get experts from more appropriate categories on this.

Edit: Okay, the category you oughta ask this is called Law Enforcement & Police. It's a sub-category in the Politics & Government Category.

Answer 7

Grr....I'm calling up St Mike for this one.
Hang in there doll. Everything happens for a reason. It may seem really bad right now, but something good will come. I know it. My uncle tried to do this to my aunt, and guess what, although it was a see-saw back and forth for a while, guess where the kids ended up? Back with mom. I won't give my opinion of Dad because I respect the ToS of the site.

Answer 8

Mollie No! what happened, your hubby was so devoted to you, do what everyone said and see a Lawyer tomorrow and the Army Chaplain as well as an Officer

I will pray for you and if you ever need me I am here for you, please look after the baby you are carrying and you will get the girls back, move back to NSW but nowhere near his family, maybe close to where I live, I will help you in anyway I can

God will answer

Edit:
Baptist: she is serious I know the family

Answer 9

I have tried to understand your situation very carefully.
I also feel sympathy for you and for your little daughters.
What do you want at this juncture?
Need the custody of your daughters?
Is it peace or peace and harmony both?
If it is peace and harmony both, you have to shred your anger first and with conscious mind do whatever is required for staying together with your husband and daughters and simultaneously keeping a good relationship with your in-laws.
I do not know your exact situation. If required, to fulfill the above objective, there is nothing wrong, if you bow down to them also. But, your objective should be fulfilled.

Also, please appreciate that your religion is eternal. If one individual tells badly about your religion, it is not going to be bad. Please take all these with a smiling face and with a sense of pardon. Learn from Jesus Christ. This is the best way to be happy and to increase the number of your well-wishers.

Answer 10

you need to hire a lawyer right away to file for custody of your kids. the police will not get involved because this is a civil matter, not criminal. it's a civil matter because it is a custody case and your husband has just a much right to the kids as you do.

you could call family services and ask that they go and check on the kids and explain the situation.
