My sister doesn't know what to do in her case, that's why I am writing to you ,hopefully you can help her.
My sister and her ex-husband are mexican, even though my sister is american permanent resident since she remarried with an american citizen 8 years ago.
She got divorced 9 years ago from her ex-husband now, with who she had two kids -now 14 and 12 years old- then she remarried an american citizen and has one child -5 years old-
In those 9 years her ex-husband never look after their kids in any way, I mean no having any communication even by phone or sending some money for their support. On the other hand since a couple of months ago her ex suddenly started sending emails to my sister asking about the children, My sister as always thinking on their kids, she started talking to their kids about it and trying and convincing their children to write to him, because at the beginning they weren't interested after their absence in all those years.
The problem now is that he says he has a lot of money and wants the kids to live with them , but neither the kids nor my sister want that to happen so he threatened my sister so he will ask for the custody of the children and take them away from her, since he has more money than my sister does.
My question is what can she do in order to avoid him from taking their kids away from her . My sister and their children are american permanent residents and her ex-husband told my sister he can't enter to the states, she does not know why, in this case can he still ask for the custody ,
Please tell me some advise so I can tell my sister, she is having a very difficult time
