    I remember watching a documentary on that last story. It said the husband was abusive & controlling. He threatened to take their daughter away & tried for years to have her committed to psych wards unsuccessfully because no psychiatrists agreed. He finally found one & took her to court.
    When found, the daughter Savanna was so happy & she said he mother had given her a wonderful life & didn’t want her mom to be prosecuted. Her mother had no mental or behavioral disorders.
    In the interviews he was indeed a creep.

      At first I didn’t like the tone, it was as if she was trying to sound like a computer or recording…letting the end letters linger and the pitch going up and down. The more it went on the less noticeable, although still there. She’s got a great voice, but I don’t like it when ppl try to sound like something they’re not. I’d rather the narrators be themselves, it makes it more personal. I can’t focus on the actual info cus I’m focused on the tone. Too many narrators are using this technique now a days…it’s too fake and overdone.

    This happened with my dad. For what ever reason he wanted to leave my mum back in the late 60’s - so his best idea was to fake his own death. He drove his car to the beach, abandoned it, left his wallet and belongings in the car and made it look like he took his own life. My mum found out years later he was still alive, they rekindle their relationship briefly and I was conceived, then they broke up again. I was born months later and met my father for the first time when I was about 8. Way messed up story.

And you also have to put it into the context of when this story took place, which was the early 90's.

    Wow that last story hit a little too close to home for me. I haven’t seen my sons in almost 7 years. Their mom’s (I have 2 sons with 2 different women) took off with them and I have NO CLUE where they are. What makes it even more fucked up is they actually got the state of Texas to demand I pay child support but I’m denied from seeing them. They both came up with some serious bullshit and told the courts I couldn’t be trusted. So my “parental rights” were terminated. I have never and would never hurt either of my sons. In fact I have literally given up stuff that meant a lot to me. All so I could get money to make sure they had good birthdays and Christmas’. I have sacrificed a lot for my boys and would die for them. I was always a good dad to them. However because they got butt hurt about something, I still don’t know what, my life and name was dragged through the mud. I wasn’t even given the chance to prove myself in court. I was just delivered papers one day, saying that my youngest’s mom went to court accused me of horse shit, so they decided WITHOUT ME to terminate my rights. If I didn’t know what it feels like to lose my dad to suicide, I’d be long gone by now. It’s heartbreaking to think about my sons ALL DAY, EVERYDAY and KNOW their mom’s are lying to them. Just to make sure they think I was a monster and that they are better off without me. I am horrified thinking that even if I live long enough that they will NEVER come looking for me all because of what their mother’s told them their whole lives. 😖 At least once a week I end up crying myself to sleep thinking about my boys and everything I am missing. Thinking about all the time passing that I will NEVER GET BACK. 😫😭

She called him up while he was at work one day, told him he wasn’t allowed back in their home, & she was divorcing him. She also transferred 25k out of his own account, it was money that he received as an Inheritance when his dad died.
      He doesn’t deny they were having marital issues, but the way she went about it was cold hearted & callous. She then would not allow him to see their toddler, & did the exact same thing your exes did. She got his parental rights completely terminated. He has not seen his son since. Also this happened in Texas as well. He can’t get ahold or see his son still 7 years later.

    And taking a child...Sure, the above circumstances apply just like anything else, but in this last story, there was no justifiable reason for her to take Savannah away like that. I've been through the psych testing for custody and it's a b**ch to go through, emotionally devastating to have to prove your fitness as a parent. If she got diagnosed, that could have been challenged, as could the custodial and access arrangements. It's long, hard, and tedious - painful and crushing...but you're supposed to BE doing it for THE CHILD, not to wage war against the other parent on who wins.

      Uh no. One mental health professional said she was fine and the other three diagnosed her with bi polar disorder. What the mother did was kidnapping. It’s extremely messed up for one parent to steal their child away from the other parent resulting in one parent not being able to see their child for years or forever.

    The last case is heartbreaking. That child grew up living a lie, and now even knowing the truth she's too brainwashed to believe her mother was in the wrong. I feel awful for the father. It reminds me of my own childhood. There wasn't a kidnapping or anything that extreme but my dad and stepmom manipulated the court system to take me away from my "mentally ill and unfit to raise me" mom (their narrative, not the truth). In reality my mom understood my needs as an autistic person and my dad and stepmom (especially stepmom, dad often seemed to just echo her) believed my disability was a fabrication. So from the moment they got me, I was cut off from all disability related supports and my social and academic life went to shit, to which they responded by expecting perfection from their little "prodigy". When they tried to overfeed me and I threw up, I was punished for "intentionally throwing up, like your mother trained you to." When I was bullied, they blamed me and said "quit acting like a R-word like your mother trained you to and you won't get bullied." They fed me so many awful lies about my mom, but I was unhappy enough with their "care" that I never fully believed their lies. Sadly they had the system wrapped around their pinky finger and high social status in their town so my word was always inferior to theirs. Not even running away from home twice, once in pajamas in the middle of an icy winter, and begging the police in tears to do something, led anywhere. Sorry, I know my case isn't the same as this one, but parental dispute cases where one parent robs another of their child over lies and selfishness always remind me of my horrible adolescence. In a way I was lucky that I got to spend 11 years happy with my mom, so by the time my dad and stepmom got me I was already conscious of the situation and hated the changes they were making in my life. This poor girl was taken before even knowing her dad. I can't imagine. To be fair when I was young I always wondered about my dad and wanted to meet him, but once I did, and realized he was just a puppet for my stepmom, who I can honestly describe as EVIL, I wish I hadn't. Hindsight is 20/20. Knowing my dad was just a rabbit hole of manipulation, abuse and pain. But this dad didn't seem like that, he deserved to know his daughter and be in her life, not be replaced by some random dude the mother changed her name and remarried.

    • @kymo6343
      @kymo6343 2 роки тому +1

      I don't think she is brainwashed. I think she knows her mom better than to believe the dad's lies about her. Maybe taking the kid wasn't legally in the right but this woman knew she was being screwed over by the law and that her daughter was going to lose her and vice versa. She did what she thought was right so that she and her daughter wouldn't have to suffer bc of some sexist judge ignoring that 4 outta 5 mental health pros said she was fine, not to mention Savannah herself saying as much, and she was raised by her so she would know. Whereas I honestly believe the dad just did what he thought would punish his wife, not what was best for his daughter... Apparently there are more details that don't paint this guy in such a good light either. He tried to control his daughter after they met again and when she wouldn't agree to his demands, he ghosted her. So yeah what's that say about him...

He had been in New York the entire time. Had changed his name and remarried and had another child. The only reason she was my grams mother was contacted and not his second wife was because he when he was finger printed it was traced to his real name and she was still his wife. Thew much research she found out about his new wife and other grown child. My Great gram did not go and claim his body and nobody realy spoke of him again. As far as they were concerned he died decades before when he left them very poor and alone.
