Reply #26: I'm so sorry. I know your pain, or part of it, anyway. My own

son was taken when he was eight, but it was by his father so at least I didn't have to worry that he was with someone who would want to harm him. It was six months before it became illegal to kidnap your own child which went into effect January 1, 1981, so what he did was not against the law and I got no help from the authorities. I didn't know where they'd gone and it took years of searching and more years of court fights to get him back because they wound up in the one state that does not honor other states' custody decrees, or didn't then. My situation was unbearable; yours is worse. I'm truly sorry and I hope you and your son are reunited someday.
