Kidnapped son to be returned to U.S. father

-When a parent runs off with a child so the other parent cannot have access to the child that is what is universally known as kidnapping---even when the mother does it the act is still kidnapping.

The latest big incident to involve international courts is the saga between David Goldman of New Jersey and his former wife who is Brazilian. The bitch flew down with their son to her native country in 2004 on the pretext of a vacation, then she divorced Mr Goldman and has since refused to return or cooperate with the father in any manner. As a mother she feels entitled to essentially abduct the son because, as so many morons believe, fathers don't really have inherent bonds with their offspring and can't love them as a mother can.

After years of legal wrangling and senseless drama a Brazilian court has finally ruled in favor of Mr Goldman and ordered the boy be taken to the American Consulate by Friday, December 18th to be then returned to his father in America.

Fathers do have inherent rights and must press harder for them. Culturally we are hesitant to acknowledge that papa bears have hearts as well as wallets. We saw practically the same fall-out with little Elian Gonzalez whose mother stole him away from their native Cuba to take advantage of America's Wet foot, dry foot policy, leaving Mr Gonzalez in the dark. Despite conservative media and John McCain's patriotic bullshit opposition Elian Gonzalez was rightly reunited with his father in Cuba; and it remained the right thing for the U.S. government to do in spite of Fidel Castro milking the spectacle for all it was worth.
