Daughter sent out of the country without mothers permission by father!
My ex-husband and I got a divorce in 97' in our divorce it was agreed upon that we had joint custody. Our three children would reside with me and visit there father on weekends, Muslim holidays, every other Christmas, and six weeks out of the summer, any changes in addresses, phones numbers, etc. should be reported to the other parent. I had lost my job and apartment and needed help from there father. We had talked about it and decided that the children would live with him till I could get back on feet again. I talked to them on the phone and seen them on the weekends. The children were going to come back to live with me but they seemed happy so I decided that I would let them continue to live with their dad. Well in the last year he has stop them from talking to my mother and me all together. Well Monday, Sept. 24th, my 16 year old daughter was at home and her father came home and told her to get her clothes packed. He sent her to Jordan with her step-mother and step brother to marry her off. He is making them live the Muslim life style.. Her dad told my two boys that were not to tell me or anyone else were she was. My 14 year old son left my older son a message on Myspace that he had something important to tell me about my daughter. I called and he told me the horrific news. He told my 14 year old that she would never be coming back to the US. I was speaking with him on the phone and the father thought it was a friend of my sons and told my son that if he told me about my daughter leaving that he would kill and that he would get away with it and after that comment my son is scared for his life and does not want to be there what so ever. The next I drove to Chicago and went to the Cook County Circuit Court. There fill out the paper work for a order of protection for my son's and the manager of that department pushed the paper work through so I could go to court and see a judge that day for a emergency protection order. I went to see a judge about the situation. She denied the order and said it was not a emergency and did not let me explain everything to her. So I have to wait two weeks till I can see another judge and explain everything again. Mean while my son has to sit in that house while his father gets severed with the court papers and he terrified of what his father will do when he finds out that he has told me.
What should I do about getting my son out of that house and getting my daughter back to US were she belongs? I do not understand what so ever why he is allowed to take my daughter out of the country but yet I can not take my son from that house!!
