love of my life coming here from barranquilla end of august....
we are getting married here in the Bahamas.......we have a problem....a short one....bit taller than 3 ft tall by the name of Andrea Marce (su nina)....her father has never spent a dime on her upbringing, and has a few other kids elsewhere....problem is
I cannot have my woman without her child (and would not want otherwise...if a mother is willing to leave her child, the she is worth nothing).........
but the son of a bitch refuses to sign anything......he is asking for $10,000 to release the child....fuck you....can handle certain bribes, but there is a limit)
I do not want a wife who spends all her time thinking about her daughter back home...I am a good daddy with my kids and intend to do the same witb the new one......come on, there has to be an easier solution...listen......old so and so do u have any friends that can apply pressure...just a thought

Miguel_Clavo says on Jul 31, 2006, 17:48: I was under the impression that there was a legal method in.. Colombia to have the non-custodian parent declared to have "abandoned" a child, thus freeing the other parent to leave Colombia? Just give your post some time, and i am sure some of the veterans here are familiar with it. But as far as 10k vs 3k, it is like playing poker....loball him with $1500, but dont agree to more than what you set as an upper limit...I would go no more than what it would cost me to contract a lawyer to handle it. If he rides a horse, he might just settle for your last offer....but, keep a "poker face about you". A friend of mine had the same situation but the father was in the US illegally, but his whereabouts were known. It was suggested to him that if didnt want a visit by some friends of ours in "la migra" he should seriously consider signing the papers, which he promptly did. Good luck, and if you were really considering midnight visits, just do it and dont post on PBH....could come back to haunt you...=( "I would rather die living life, than to live a dying life."........

moondance says on Jul 31, 2006, 18:06: well said...miguel the man has no interesrest in his daughter's....the mother (who I love like there is no tomorrow), is soft and does not know what to do.....$10,000...I cannot afford it....but I can afford a trip back to b/quilla and maybe negogiate with him (trip tentatively set for august 29th).....but what gets me...if they are so happy over there, why would you wager your daughter and her hapiness....she needs to be with her mom.....maybe I am naive

Miguel_Clavo says on Jul 31, 2006, 18:14: If he is a deadbeat daddy, he wrote the daughter off a long time ago. He is just a greedy oppurtunist, and sometimes bad things happen to bad people....its just terrible, but it does happen....but my guess is that if given the +/- $1500 or nada, he will opt for the plata.......human nature.....then, see if it is possible to squeeze some money out of him for past child support or an equivalent, if possible...You know the players more than anyone here, but a word of caution, only something to think about: (and not meant to insinuate anything toward anyone or insult anyone in your relationship) Dont get scammed out of 10K AND lose the love of your life at the same time.....that has been known to happen too!

Gator says on Jul 31, 2006, 20:13: File the Case with the family court in Barranquilla and seek an order giving sole custody to mom and including permission to exit Colombia with the child. DAS will accept this and allow the child to leave,. "Credidi pretio parvo emere et magno vendere tibi in animo fuisse!" . 0 funny, 0 helpful. |

miamimike says on Jul 31, 2006, 20:51: Gator Offers the Best advice I wouldn't anty up one red cent,,,could be a scam in the making,,,,,Go the legal way of the court. I have never heard of one of these payoffs going well.My Buddy's future father in law(BQA) asked my Buddy to pay $500 for immigrant documents sent to his fiancee for completion. The Father confiscated the enverlope and attempted to hold them for a Ransom while the daughter was at work.LOL My Buddy didn't pay up-he sent all new Documents at great pains; Turns out now(he is divorced as the marriage didn't work) afterwards he learned(my buddy) the Daughter(his fiancee) may have been involved in the scam,, proceed with caution my Friend,,,, On Sept 17, 2008: Senator John McCain said, as he had many times before, that he believed the fundamentals of the economy were "strong."Hours later he backpedaled, explaining that he had meant that American workers were Strong. 0 funny, 0 helpful. |

moondance says on Aug 1, 2006, 04:58: good advice seriously though, I will never do anything illegal....yesterday's talk was just pent up frustrations. Mi novia will follow the family court route and it should not be a problem , especially since the father has never had anything to do with the child

robi666 says on Aug 3, 2006, 15:58: Moondance, a father has got the right to have his daughter near. But, if you are sure, I mean really sure, that he is asking money to sign his permission and he does not care a shit about his daughter (did he ask money to you directly?), and he never gave a pesos to his ex, then "Plata o Plomo" works great in Colombia with low estrato s.o.b.

A nation whose laws are harsh yet simple, a nation that never cheats, which is immense and without borders, where life is lived in the present." 0 funny, 0 helpful. |

Miguel_Clavo says on Aug 3, 2006, 18:04: What if she claims that the father "abandoned" the child and she has no idea where he is, or if he is even alive? but go to a different lawyer this time...=) I was under the impression that it would be a slam dunk per Gator, but you may want to shop around and get a few opinions from different lawyers.....but if you do pay, start real lowwwwwwwwwww in price...establish his greed level....

moondance says on Aug 3, 2006, 19:35: sorry guys sorry but a woman is not just a woman...you do not fall in love...you decide to love. b.t.w. the daugther is a sweet girl and I have accepted her to fall in love with this woman (I am not an idiot, been around the block)...but must deal with this hombre...will do nothing illegal just try to reason....he thinks if she leaves, then his mother should have the child (grandma raising 2 others from his so-called relationships, with not a dime from him).....this 6 yr old from my woman is well raised and mother has done everything for her....so fuck him to try to stop a good education elsewhere....she would go to same private school as my 2 other children and university eventually...and no...I am not being used by this woman....stop being so cinical, sometimes things are as they appear

utopiacowboy says on Aug 3, 2006, 21:36: I love this thread with everyone debating the proper legal proceedings. You'd think everyone was talking about a country with a functioning legal system. Come on, PBSH, you know perfectly well what a Colombian would do in a similar situation. And it wouldn't be filing a lawsuit or calling a cop. The humanity! The naivete! Disclaimer: any comment I make is inane and is not to be taken seriously, and is so patently ridiculous that no one should take it seriously, even as an insult. 0 funny, 0 helpful. |

gabo4ever says on Aug 4, 2006, 03:20: UC You are correct, we all know what a Colombian would do. But M.dance is NOT Colombian, does NOT live in Colombia, nor does he have enough experience in Colombia, to act like one. Y por si se atreven: Watsamatamaracuya? 0 funny, 0 helpful. |

moondance says on Aug 9, 2006, 06:01: update........... well, it went as expected. As I've mentioned before, local legal advice was that mainly because the nina has the same last name as the biological father (biological being the operative word as he has not contributed a dime to the child's upbringing), it will not be posible for the 'judicio' to grant permision for the child to leave with the mother. Furthermore, mi novia tried again to plead with this asshole, citing the fact that she is the mother and the possibilities that will be available for the child. In the end, he told her he was going to the police to say she tried to bribe him for him to sign for permission (although he had mentioned the figure of $10,000 last month).....What is one to do? I love my woman and I know she will not be complete living with me without her daughter and I do not want to tear her away from her child. I personally have 3 children of my own and I see them most days although they live with their mother 70% of the time.
