Q: What are all my options in getting my 16 year to return home in NC.
I have custody his father has every other weekend visitation. My child left with his father and now he refuses to bring him back. I know where my son is but he is not in his fathers care and I have been told if I go to the house where he is I will be arrested for trespassing. Since his father took him I dont know if he would be consider as a runaway.and I dont want to break any laws or file any false reports so I know I could endorce my court order but that takes time to get back to court so is there any other legal options that I can do. He is not safe where he is as he has no adult supervision and is driving without a license and staying out all hours of the night my son has severe asthma and is not getting his meds.
A: Are you kidding me? Go to local law enforcement with proof you have custody and have them escort you to go get you child. Now! Like right now - as soon as you are done reading this
