Grandparent moves grandchild to another country

[ChirpyBiscuit]

AIBU to think that this should not be allowed to happen?
My mother has taken my daughter without my permission to another country meaning that she can’t easily see me or her siblings.
I am a kind, gentle, caring mother and AIBU to think that this is against human rights?

Why not explain the situation properly rather than a cryptic post with no actual information?

No backstory or context 🧐

I will try to give more context. I haven’t seen her for a long time neither have her siblings because my mother and my daughter are now so far away and I’m scared of my mother. I don’t want to go anywhere near my mother.
My mother has a narcissist personality and has managed to lie about me to my daughter. She’s manipulated my daughter and managed to get social services to believe her lies. My daughter’s siblings still live with me.
It might be difficult for you to believe what I’m saying, however, if you’ve had experience with someone like my mother you would believe it could happen

Does she have any legal rights . How old is your Dd?

I would suggest legal advice

So your mum has custody of your daughter to the extent you’ve lost parental rights? Because obviously you would still have a say if you hadn’t lost parental rights.

You’re unlikely to get support here without the full story op. And I suspect you don’t want us to know the full story.

How old is she op? Are you saying she was awarded custody? Have you spoken to social services?

@Merryoldgoat sorry because it’s a sensitive issue it’s about my daughter it’s difficult to talk about it but I need advice

What lies did she tell SS, and how old is she?

It still makes no sense. Why is your daughter with her in the first place? Why haven’t you seen her?

Well if your mum has legal custody - however she got it - I suppose your only recourse is via the Courts, but I imagine that would be very difficult if the legal system awarded custody to mum in the first place years ago.

I'm sorry but on the face of it I think you will have to let it go and concentrate on the children remaining with you.

@SleepingStandingUp
yes she was awarded custody I don’t know why they listened to her lies. The whole court case was a joke against me. Social services didn’t listen to me. What I find really strange is that my daughter who lives with my mother now, her siblings live with me and they say they don’t like grandma. That’s another reason why I think the whole thing is against human rights. No woman should have a child taken for her for no reason. I don’t know why they let her take her from me

We can't give advice without knowing more really. If she needed your permission then you can call the police.

maybe for starters @ChirpyBiscuit tell us what age she is.
what avenue to follow will be different for a young baby, a school aged child or a teen.
is the out of country experience new/unusual, is it a planned trip during school break or is it more permanent?

Do you have Parental Responsibility?

@BMW6
my daughter says me misses me a lot and wishes I were closer to her.
That’s one very good reason why I won’t just let it go thanks for the advice but sorry I can’t take the advice

There is no way that she was given custody without you knowing why.

The judgement will list the reasons why, you’d have been through a court case, given evidence, been cross examined.

You are being dishonest.

@LIZS
yes I have PR.

Does she have a different dad to your other kids? Why aren’t you including any ages or timeframes if you want advice? How are you in touch with DD?

Is your child classed as ‘looked after’ ?….If so PR will likely be shared and children’s services will be the corporate parent?

or does your Mum have an SGO ( special guardianship order) in which case she will have PR and has more rights.

No woman should have a child taken for her for no reason. I don’t know why they let her take her from me

Of course it shouldn't happen, but you've answered the Why yourself - because they all believed what your Mum/DD was accusing you of.

I don't know if there's anything you can do to overturn their decision. I think you may need to accept what is and let it go, for your (and your other children's) sake.

Nobody here can help you unless you’re honest, which you’re not being at the moment.

Just what I was going to ask, is she and the siblings still with you full siblings?

Why all the half stories op? Can't you just state the story if you want help?

Did you sign a section 20? Or was your child removed following a court order?
