Some advice please

unfortunately hon you may have to wait till he gets home...otherwise maybe call legal aid or something to see if they know a course of action you can take...they have more ability to help and the resources and knowledge to provide good advice or they may also say wait till they due home.... im assuming your ex is an australian citizen so cant overstay his visa anyway without getting in trouble i wish you good luck and a good outcome...

report it to the police. u've agreed to let u'r daughter with him under some conditions wich have been completly broken. if she is in u'r custody then i think u can report him for kidnaping. i'm not very sure how the laws are in australia, but police station is definetly the place to go and find out what u can do next. they can help u and can give u advices. don't wait until when he is supposed to be back with u'r daughter. he broke the rules and gave false information. even if he has rights to visit his daughter he still needs u'r agreement to take her out of the country (or at least this is what i know).

I know that this is EXTREMELY hard for you, and id be worried if you werent worried. All that you can do at this point in time is keep trying. I know that your not silly but keep a log book of when you called and the phone was off, does he have msg bank? leave messages. If off text him and keep noted down then you can go to Solicitor as this breaches your court orders. Either of you are supposed to be able to contact her at any time correct? Well this is one huge breach of that and one that your solicitor wont ignore! As for trying to get on with him, i think this has proved that he is only intent on trying to hurt you. Try be brave and stay strong. She will be safe, as much as he can be difficult, he would NEVER let anything happen to her!

I'm not Austrailian, so I don't really have any advice. However, I am a mom, so I can relate to how you must feel. I hope that you can get in contact with your daughter soon. I know you would feel a lot better if you could at least talk to her.

Hi I am from Australia as well, oh no I would not allow my children to go overseas with my children and I do not suggest that you allow this to happen., oh dear you did let your daughter go and now you are having big troubles, I think that you best contact the immigration and see what you can do this is dreadful I wish you luck in whatever way you have to go about dealing with this problem.

Unless he's done something illegal in regards to Aussie laws, nothing you can do. He has as much right to your daughter as you do. Would you think he deserves to know every minute of your trip if YOU were taking your daughter somewhere? Without evidence of wrongdoing, you have no right in stopping anything. Additionally, regardless of your relationship with him, your daughter's relationship with her father is more important than your relationship status with him. Of course, it's better when both parents can get along and present a united front for the children, but we all know that's a rarity in these times. Unless you're willing to start a court case, I'd suggest biting your tongue. If it were me as the male in this situation, and under American laws of visitation, I would have at least given you authentic info, but would not allow you to spoil my vacation. Remember, he didn't take "your daughter" he took "the daughter of the both of you".

As much as it is hard and I can understand your anxiety, the 10th is only a short time away. He has not kept up to his word and this should be noted to your solicitor, but I would not be very impressed with him on his return and he will probably expect it. This type of behaviour makes me so angry as his word in the future will leave you with mistrust. Having had similar experiences in the past. Good luck and try and keep busy until the day!

OMG what a worry, I feel for you, I guess you have to just hope at this point that he is doing the right thing...I hope so much that it is ok for you...

i reckon, by your activities on this site that ya using this topic as a head puller..shame,shame,shame

ive read most of the posts here and have been saddened and shocked at some of the opinions.... 1..she shouldnt have to get back together with her husband for the sake of their child...sometimes that is more detramental to the child as it is an unhappy family home as opposed to two happily separated partners.. 2 missytia is not irresponsible for letting her childs father take her out of the country..she is not too young to enjoy a trip with her father and meet his family (if that is infact what he is doing). someone i know took his son to england to meet his family and the son enjoyed the trip... 3. as much as i know shed love to call the police...i know they will probably say wait till the 10th... 4. i believe this to be a legitimate problem for missytia and not just a ratings booster as ive known people in similar situations who have been worried about their kids coming back.... there is of course no harm in talking to the solicitor to have things checked out as to what course of action could be taken....and definately contracts signed up for future to cover things like this that can be a stress

Similar advice to the first person I read. If she is home with you on the 10th, let it go, but if she does not turn up after that, seek legal aid. In the mean time, try not to worry.

I think that no matter how hard it is you have to wait until the 10th of january before doing anything. after that if she is not back then it is time to contact the police and charge him with kidnapping. Also when he gets back, hae him explain what the H*ll he´s been and why he tricked you! Good luck!

heya, this must be very scary for you. I would be upset also if the itenerary i was provided with was false. I suppose that as previous posters have suggested you will have to wait until the 10th to find out what is happening. Have you rang any of the other accomodation that they were meant to be staying at? I think if he is taking your child on an overseas holiday but not letting her contact you this is not a very good thing for a child. If as you mentioned in another post you are sure he would not harm her are you also sure he would not take her away from you? I do not want to scare you, just wondering? Anyway, I hope things turn out for the best and that she returns home on the 10th with some legitimate excuses. They are possible (problems with the phone carriers, problems with accomodation, family insisting that they stay with them). I would like to know how things turn out, Tanika.

Let's hope positively. Please wait. Your baby will be with you soon. Intimate in this discussion about her arrival Till then we pray for you

Contact the police and have them contact interpol stating that he has broken his promise and that you fear he has kidnapped her and let them find him, and when she's returned get a court order stopping him access.

WELCOME TO MYLOT

this is not done you must not act like this

G'day Missy! Here in the states, well most of them anyway, the courts have a share parenting agreement that's usually attached to divorce decrees. Both parents are alloted certain times of the year with the child(ren) and anytime one parent is leaving the area for 24 hours or more, they are supposed to provide a written itenieary of where they will be traveling as well as a contact number. I know exactly how you're feeling now. During our divorce proceedings, my daughter's mother just left town for one week without any notice. She called me once to let me talk to my daughter, but would not tell me where they were. I was sick to my stomach thinking I wouldn't see my dauther again. As soon as she returned, I addressed that issue in court to make sure it doesn't happen again. She's the primary custodian and any other incidents of that nature would be cause for another custody hearing. You will have to ride this one out (I know it's harder for a mother) and the next time he wants to take your daughter anywhere, even if it's the Woomera outback to see the space museum, have him file a request through your court system providing them with all the details. Otherwise, he can forget about. Stay strong. Everything will be find and when you're daughter returns, just remember, that's what it's all about. I know you'll be angry, but keep the feelings for your daughter and her father separate for the good of the child.

i wouldn't wait around to see if he comes back on the 10th here in the u.s. after 48hrs its kidnapping, i'd go directly to the f.b.i. or whatever you have down under and file a complaint.immediatly!!!!!!i'm a male and if my wife who i great along great with did it and i couldn't find my child all hell would break loose.I don't mean to be mean but wake up.your in australia he's in europe come on.take him down

He does not have amicable relationship with you does not necessarily mean that he's a bad father. Please be calm till 10th jan. There is police and the court to help you out. Your daughter may not be with you, but at least he will take care of her, she's his child as well. Please don't panic and take advices here and there. 10 different people will give you ten different suggestions and you'll get even more confused. Just listen to your solicitor.
