Immigrants leaving their children in their home country until they’ve built a stable life in another is such a different situation as they’re actually leaving their children temporarily to try and better their life.It needs more context to see if it’s abandonment or not.
Many immigrants are leaving their kids in their home country with family for a while until they are stable enough in the new country to bring them. That’s not abandonment.
She may had to share custody with the other parent, and will visit during vacations. Again, not abandonment.
She may want to see how living with this guy is before bringning her kids. That is being safe and not abandonment.
Of course if she just hopped on a plane and let the kid with no plans of ever coming back that is abandonment.
Erin has gone to the US to live with a felon she barely knows for some dick to put it nicely, so has only thought of herself. the criminal in question can’t stay out of prison for five minutes hence why he’s already back in jail for a parole violation or was from the last I’ve heard yet she values him more than she does her own kid, that’s why she went. How can you justify leaving your own flesh and blood for a man? No man could surely be worth barely ever seeing your child? Let alone a criminal. The child she’s got is now growing up without his mom around just because she would rather fanny around with a US felon. That’s crazy to me.
Of course Erin can go and visit him on holidays but that’s not the same as being a present mother constantly in his life. She had access to him whenever in Australia but now can somehow live thousands of miles away knowing she left him for a man, I just can’t comprehend that mindset, I could never.
Also Erin's man, Michael, got arrested in November for domestic violence so she left her child in another country with his dad to get pushed around by a criminal it seems which just makes it even worse.
