Are you leaving her too? I don't understand did you break up with her? You have to understand that there is a kid involved. You need to do whats best for the child.
Re: Do I Kidnap My Own Son? by Aglah1976(f): 8:00pm On Mar 30, 2010
@Akina,
we have stopped the relationship for almost 1 year now, we are no longer together, i am thinking of my son's future thats why i need advices so i dont make a terrible mistake
Re: Do I Kidnap My Own Son? by Akinagirl(f): 8:02pm On Mar 30, 2010
Well I need more information. Why dont they want you to have him until hes 7?
Re: Do I Kidnap My Own Son? by Akinagirl(f): 8:03pm On Mar 30, 2010
And NO, you can get in serious trouble for kidnapping. DO NOT under and circumstances KIDNAP any kid. Ok? You will be thrown in jail. Also if you want custody of your child, you man need to go through the courts. Where are you located?
Re: Do I Kidnap My Own Son? by TewMuch: 8:07pm On Mar 30, 2010
well i personally dont think you should kidnap the child. Every child needs the presence of both parents in their lives. You are the father and have your own duties, but you cannot replace a mother in a child's life. You are truely the father of the child right?If so, the woman does not have the right to tell you when you can see your son. He can come and see you over holidays, and if both of you are adults and behave like you are, you should be able to come to an agreement to share custody. Now if she is being difficult, you can take her to court and do things the right way. All of this is for the sake of your child, so that he is in a good and healthy environment. Just calm down, and make the right decisions. You dont want to deprive a child of his mother's love and presence in his life. Goodluck.

The only excuse they give was' he is too small to be taken away from him mom, he might end up not recognizing her in future'
am located in Ghana
Re: Do I Kidnap My Own Son? by yme1(f): 8:11pm On Mar 30, 2010
firstly you need to figure out whats best for the child and i know having both parents around him is a blessing
secondly i wont advice you to stay in an unhealthy relationship because of your child
don't even think of kidnapping him cause you are gonna be creating a bad name for yourself
just make sure you pay him a visit always and let him know how much you love him
b4 you say jack robinson he is gonna be 7 and all yours smiley

and he wont end up not recongnizing the dad abi?
funny excuse if you ask me undecided
Re: Do I Kidnap My Own Son? by omega25red(m): 8:48pm On Mar 30, 2010
i don't think it's right that you kidnap him because you went over there to have a baby so the child is their own citizen which means you should abide by the country's law or work something out with the family. By the way what is chasing you from the country now?
Re: Do I Kidnap My Own Son? by Akinagirl(f): 9:36pm On Mar 30, 2010
OK. Sorry but thats a flimsy excuse to say that hes too young he wont recongnise his mother, yeah like he will recongnise you too. But like I said you might have to go through the courts with this one, since you all cant reach an agreement. All the same, try and talk to her and explain to her that you want to be in your sons life as well. But you all need to come to an agreement.
Re: Do I Kidnap My Own Son? by Aglah1976(f): 1:37am On Mar 31, 2010
thanks all for the advices, i guess i will just leave,, nothing is chasing me here, am just tired and wanted to go back home, settle down and establish a bussiness, just worried i might make a stupid mistake by leaving him behind,,
Re: Do I Kidnap My Own Son? by bluespice(f): 1:44am On Mar 31, 2010
why don't you talk to the mom,
from what you said, it's the family that's throwing a fit, what do you and the mom wanna do about the child?
the family is irrelevant
Re: Do I Kidnap My Own Son? by nguage(m): 1:52am On Mar 31, 2010
First, if the only reason you're breaking up with her is because you go broke after sleeping with her, get back with her ASAP. The only correlation between sleeping with her and going broke is the one you've created in your own mind. I know enough about human spirituality so take this from me.  Once you get back with her or at least settle things with her, everything will work.
Re: Do I Kidnap My Own Son? by Tinksh(f): 1:55am On Mar 31, 2010
Please deal with this legally. If you kidnap him and they find you then you wont ever see him again and have totally messed your son up for life. You just have to work hard at being part of his life. I dont know what the custody rules are there but its up to you. Put your son first and make the effort to stay in contact with him til he is old enough to come see you on his own. Even if you get rubbish from his mother dont let that stop you. The child is whats important here. When he is older he will then know you loved him and wanted him cos you worked hard to see him when he was little. Good luck to you.
Re: Do I Kidnap My Own Son? by Aglah1976(f): 9:16am On Mar 31, 2010
@bluespice, theres nothing to talk to the mom about, she has moved on with her life with someone else in her life, but still staying in her fathers house {am typing this from there, been here for 1 week now to see my son} and what she wanna do with the child is hold him and not let go,


@n-guage, This is not the first time i am noticing this, i have sold 2 cars and a business center in the process, so you might no about human spirituality as u have said, but i think theres no how anyone can fell someones pain if u have never been through such before,


@Tink_sh, Dealing with it legally would hold me back here for another 4yrs, and talking about taking rubish, i am now used to it, all i want is a brighter future for my boy, dont need him going through what i went through growing up,
i could just pick him up and walk away, am just thinking ahead and all your advices are worth millions to me in this situation and stage of my life
THANK U ALL
Re: Do I Kidnap My Own Son? by galatico(m): 9:48am On Mar 31, 2010
This is hard question, if I where to be in your shoes which I don't pray to be.
Thank God you already know that each time you have Bleep with her you vurtually go broke and you have a son with her, there two things you could do stop making love to her, that would make her upset, you have a reason for doing that, secondly you could kidnap your son as you said, but that would be dangerous, consider this question what if you get caught?

when i say talk with the mom, it's not about your relationship but about the child
who cares what she's doing personally with her life?
you are interested in the well being of your son and only if her partners constitute any harm to your child should it then become a problem of yours.
You need to talk with her to arrange the terms of your son staying with you.
If she refuses to give it a hearing, the courts are always there

bluespice, the child in question is legally a Ghanaian citizen either i like it or not, so the court will always protect the interest of its own citizen have seen this at work once, and i dont wanna expose myself to that kinda atmosphere of having to loose a case when i could have avoided it in the first place, i know what to do already, am just trying to get advices maybe i should be a stone hearted man and just walk away with my son, or leave him with his mom and return home to 9ja to face persecutions by my family for leaving him behind, how would my decision affect or infect his future. {grew up without my mom too and i know how hard that was} his future is all i care about, he is my first child


galatico , we have stop havin Bleep for more than 1 yr now that set back stuff has been avoided and closed ,,, catch me?? the only place i might be having problem i might be having would be at the Ghana-Togo boarder and that too can be arranged{ a woman to help carry him across boardghr} so honestly, being caught aint my fear, his future is what i dont wanna tamper with like mine was,
Re: Do I Kidnap My Own Son? by Tinksh(f): 11:46am On Mar 31, 2010
I understand your point but please be careful and dont act on emotion. In the future how will your son feel about you when he finds out you stole him from his mother. He WILL find out. Its not right to keep a child away from his mother no matter how you feel, unless he is being abused or neglected. You obviously wont be going back so he can see his mum cos you will be thrown in jail. What are the legal agreements with your country and his mothers? What if she comes to Nigeria to hunt you down or worse.

I have a son from my failed marriage and even though i would love to have absolutely nothing to do with his father, i have no choice. Its not my son's fault his parents failed so why should he be punished. My son as your son never asked to put in this situation. I hate they way my ex is with my child but he is not being abused and as soon as my son says he doesnt want to go visit i will not force him. But til then i have to do whats best for him.

You have to put his needs first. Wait til he is old enough to come to you on his own and until then stay in contact with him at all times. It will be hard but in the end it will pay off. Please be careful and put alot of thought into the consequences your actions would have on your son.

Re: Do I Kidnap My Own Son? by babuji(f): 12:07pm On Mar 31, 2010
@Aglah1976
I think i know how you feel and the dilemma you are going through.
Truly a 3 year old child still needs his mother's love. He is too young to be seperated from his mother, it can cause irreparable damage to his psyche and self esteem. your profile picture shows you really care about the child, but if you take him from his mother, you might not be able to fill the vacuum due to your work or career and then end up leaving his care to your aunties or relatives, and this can lead the child to become withdrawn.
My advice is go ahead and establish your business in nigeria, but discipline yourself to visit him at least every 3 months and spend quality time with him that leaves him with fond memories of you and at the same time you are building a relationship and establishing rapport with him.
In due season, get a God fearing girl to marry that will love you and be willing to be a part of your son's life, and therafter you can approach them again about taking custody of your child. At this time, your son will be crying for you and they will have no choice than to relinquish him to you. This can be done at 5 years of age.

Above all i think you need to be serious with God and ask for his blood to cleanse you from all bad luck and oppression and that He continues to bless the work of your hands. Remember no one can curse whom the lord has blessed.
Cheers

Why will she not want to hold on to her dear son? The flimsy reason you broke up with her is that her 'spirit' is a stymie to your financial success, is it not? Who do you think you are? Angel Gab? What even makes you think you have more - emotionally- to offer your son? Ghanaian people will never allow you take away their child, in case you didn't know. Besides, naturally (I mean unless the woman is deranged), children are better off with their mothers anyway.
For the good of your son, leave him with his mother and contribute your quota financially (roll eyes) and otherwise to the upkeep of your son.

spikedcylinder, WHO THE 4K ARE U?? WHO INVITED UR STUPID DUMB ASS HERE AND MAKE U FEEL LIKE U BETTER THAN I AM??

PAY THEIR HOUSE RENT AND EVEN SEND 2 KIDS TO SCHOOL ALL BECAUSE THEY WERE BORN THE SAME DAY, INTO THE SAME FAMILY AND THE OTHER KIDS FATHER IS AN IN-RESPONSIBLE GHANIAN GUY? DONT I HAVE A LIFE?? AM I NOT SUPPOSE TO BE HAPPY AND SUCESSFUL BECAUSE I HAD A CHILD WITH A GHANIAN LADY THATS GOT A SPIRITUAL PROBLEM WITH HER FAMILY BACKGROUND? WHO THE Bleep ARE YOU TO ASK ME AM I ANGEL GAB, ARE YOU GOD??
YOU CALL MY REASON FLIMSY, FLIMSY THAT I NEEDED TO STEER CLEAR FROM ENEMIES OF PROGRESS LIKE YOURSELF,
DONT GET ME ANGRY HERE, THIS IS ONE OF THE REAONS I AM BEING RELUCTANT ABOUT ASKING FOR ADVICES FROM PEOPLE,
HE IS MY SON, MY INLAWS LEFT ME TO FACE THE RESPONSIBILITIES WHEN SHE WANTED TO GIVE BIRTH, SOLD MY CAR TO SETTLE BILLS,

Re: Do I Kidnap My Own Son? by spikedcylinder: 1:34pm On Mar 31, 2010
Lol. grin grin ;DCalm down.
I gave my advice the best way I could, it doesn't have to be nice. I didn't insult you, assuming you are able to decipher that.
As I said before you are in no way emotionally capable of handling a child on your own. Leave him with his mother and provide for him in other ways.
Simple.
