I read your story...
I’m so sorry that happened to you...
I was trying to point out that the mother did not have to be a bad mother for the “father” to steal the children away for years...
I was married to a man who didnt want our children but also didnt want me to have them..
He was mentally sick and didnt know what he wanted...
His desires changed as soon as they were granted etc...
He seldom if ever put the best interests of the children first...
I was extremely lucky what happened to you did not happen to my children...
He attempted through the courts to get full custody of them...
he nearly got it to...
However somehow he accidently let it slip that his intentions were to take our children many states away and leave them with his mother and “get on with his life alone” and so called “deservedly”...
The judge put the brakes on that little game because
1. If he got them I wouldnt have visitation...
2. The children were not to leave the state during the proceedings...
3. I had 2 prayer warrior friends out in the waiting room praying down Heaven into the situation because I was expecting some kind of treachery...
God doesnt like adults playing loose and fast with their childrens lives...
My comment was that the children always lose in the tug-of-war between their parents - even in the best of times.
>>> God doesnt like adults playing loose and fast with their
>>> childrens lives...
Oh, right.
It would have nothing to do with that judge granting mothers custody probably approximately 100% of the time - like most judges in this land.
