Hi

My sons dad has been absent from him left for 4 years. He has turned 5 not long ago. His dad is on the BC but I made the decision to raise my child using my surname because I do not see why he should live with a name he has no attachment to. Neither his dad or his family have made any effort in all those years.

I travel abroad and take his BC without issue.
However I was just wondering, what would happen if he was asked what his name was and he gave a different surname to what is on his passport? Would it stop us from travelling?

I'm hoping I don't get any of the 'you shouldn't raise your child with a different surname' replies. I made the decision and still to this day I believe I have made the right choice.

Thanks in advance x

No response no, but being the arse he always was he was never going to as he knows it will make my life difficult.

He will be very clued up on the legalites of my taking my son abroad without his permission and would love me to get refused
