The pain of your child being abducted never goes away. I came back here to HUKO after years because, even though my son came back to the States after his kidnapping grandmother died of cancer (he was in Australia illegally for four years), the pain is still there. I just wrote Geoff to see what can be done about the Hague Convention, which is a piece of legal mumbo jumbo that means nothing. Geoff supported me emotionally when I was down and out, it felt good just to talk to someone so far away in Australia,where my son was, that understood my plight. Everyone thinks you are crazy when you tell them about this type of situation. But all of us here know it is a real thing, and can cause you untold emotional distress. The Hague Convention needs to be challenged basically because its rules are subject to extreme misinterpretations. The US State Department, the FBI, the California Courts, the Australian Government and other agencies did nothing to help me. It wasn\'t until 2005 that my son returned unexpectedly to the US, needing my help, that the nightmare ended because the kidnapper couldn\'t take care of him and had to return to the US to live their last days because of terminal lung cancer. To me, this was divine intervention, maybe not in such a nice way, but it finally alleviated the pit in my stomach that would never go away, my missing boy. The Hague Convention is so archiac and so nebulous in its terminology. It needs to be clarified and overhauled. Anyway I can help in doing this would be gratifying for me. - Janene Caracaus Fri, 25 May 2007 14:59:26 +0100 http://www.hugurkids.com/left-behind-parents/the-parents-stories-2.html?Itemid=33#comment-38 Japan is the only g7 nation to not be a hague signatory.
