Parent Taking Child Without Permission? Here's What You Should Do

Nothing scares and angers a parent more than their child going missing because of their ex. A parent taking a child without permission? That's just outrageous and disrespectful. Cases like this involve a divorced couple with one parent feeling like they deserve more time with their child.

Though other parents do this because of the other parent's violent or abusive tendencies. Whatever the reason is, parents should inform each other of their child's whereabouts, especially if there are parenting arrangements in place, such as parenting orders or a parenting plan.

As a parent in this situation, you might think that the best way is to call the authorities right away. However, you should remain calm and know your other options, since there are also non-legal options.
