Hi David, I just got home from work. Normally I would eat dinner right away and/or check on my emails. But this time I lay down with my husband to watch the News on TV and just learned about what had happen to you and your family especially your son, Sean.. My heart goes to you. And because I really never followed your story I grab my iPod Touch and start browsing and reading your so many websites. Don’t worry you’ll get your son, the soonest. We will pray for that.

To say that David should move to Brasil to be with a son that was kidnapped from him is like saying that if someone acts in a criminal way toward you – you should bow to the will of the criminal. Plus that family NEVER wanted David to be with his son or they would have offered it instead of trying to remove his name from his OWN SON’S birth certificate over there. They have all sorts of trumped up suits awaiting for him – he’s having enough trouble dealing w/ them w/ American rights and American legal help – now he should go and be at the mercy of some kangaroo court in a country that would allow this to happen again? I hope something like this happens to you so you can have some human compassion for David AND for Sean who lost his beloved da da. Please apply some intelligence and logic to what you say in the future. You sound very ignorant sayting someone so ridiculous.

I´m just pointing out that all he cares about is his progeny. There is a half sister who will also suffer without her brother, and him without her.

The best solution that would be in the best interest of the child would be to move to Brazil and live there perminantly. As a father of a Brazilian he doesn´t require a Visa nor to leave every 6 months. He can even obtain gainful employment as a perminant resident.

This way the boy and his sister won´t be separated, he can still go to the same school, maintain the same culture, etc. The Brazilian courts would be more inclined to grant him custody if he got off his “America is a better place to live” horse and truly thought about his son. All he would have to do is give his passport up until the boy was an adult to prevent another abduction and live with his son in Brazil.

There are THOUSANDS of cases in the US that basically force parents to make the same choices: family/home country or custody of their child(ren). Many mothers would love to move away legally but can´t out of fear of losing custody to the other parent. Even moving interstate is a massive ordeal. Intercontinental is near impossible.

Pendaren, My understanding is this: David became a father and devoted himself to Sean and to being the best father he could be. That’s why I posted this.

Sean was ABDUCTED from him. To call David a “sperm donor” is outrageous.

I was going to delete your comment — I consider it immature — but decided to respond. I won’t begin to guess what your own motives are.

It is sad we will never get the other side of the story. First off, Sean has a biological sister he is being raised with. WHY split siblings up just to pander to a sperm donor? Children morally belong with their mothers and siblings PERIOD.
If the parent is unfit GRANDMA is next in line, NOT the sperm donor unless mother/grandmother consent. That is the way things should be.

David, hang in there. I am sure your son will come back to you. Absurd what Bruna’s family is doing. Just absurd.

Brazillians should voice opposition
to the blatant misrepresentaton of their nation and it`s laws by the so called judges, who are bought by the rich to manipulate the law. This has brought Brazil to the attention of the world.
