"This is a tough one. As a mother, I can empathize with going to any lengths to protect my child from an abuser. However, my brother's wife pulled the same stunt and kidnapped their two children, aged 6mons and 2 (at the time).
"She made the same claim (though the 2 yr old suffered a head injury in HER care, no one else's) and other outrageous claims that were investigated and dismissed. Thankfully, one of her "friends" tipped my brother off that his estranged wife was on a plane heading across the country while he sat at a park and waited for their arranged custody exchange.
"The police were called and she was detained at one of her connecting cities and ordered to return to the province with the kids. Mother of the Year has since grown tired of the eldest child, since he talks and can't just be thrown into a car seat all day, so she literally dropped him off on my doorstep with all his belongings, baby book, and documents and took off.
"It's been almost a year, and she's seen him once since then and doesn't call to check up on him. She attempted to kidnap the baby girl again, but realized she doesn't get court-ordered money when on the lam, so she returned and they worked out some kind of custody agreement.
"She doesn't want the little boy anymore, claiming he's been "tainted" from living with me (where she dumped him without a second thought!!) and doesn't love her anymore (sometimes I wish he didn't, but he's an angel and doesn't understand that his mommy is a sack of crap). Oh, and she has no contact with her now 3 year old.
"So... long story short... I understand the pain of a mother worried for her baby, and I also understand the agony of a father that is missing his child. Without proof of abuse, I tend to believe this is a kidnapping, and that woman needs to sort out custody the proper way, and her government needs to stop sheltering a kidnapper."
