Reblogged this on National Domestic Violence Survivor Law Project and commented:
This is really sad to know that the Family Courts in Australia can be just as disconcerting as the Family Courts in the United States.
I would love to hear more about this particular case, wouldn’t you? I thought the Hague Convention is more universal. Were they taken from their original home in Italy?
Can you please share more about this story with us?
The voices are compelling and the fright is certainly felt. I’d hate to hear that they are forced to live a life in hiding just because the Family Courts weren’t in alignment to keep them there where they seem to be doing well and feel to be in a more comfortable environment; however, it would be very interesting to learn more about all the circumstances.
Hi there. Thanks for your post. Here is a more detailed article about the whole saga. Of course there is another side to this story.
