Is India a nice country to visit?

Can physical child custody prevent/stop mother to visit her sick family member in her country (India)?

• I am that mother who is being stopped/controlled/threatened by the ex-husband(father of my child) because I need to go to my country as my mother is sick back home and needs to get eye surgery done. And therefore I sent him request/opportunity to have extended visitation period with his son but he refused alleging he has back injury therefore he cannot pick up or drop the child to and from school but is ABLE to travel from ATLANTA to MICHIGAN to exercise his visits consistently every 15 days. In the permanent visitation plan he added a clause that the child cannot leave US till he turns 18 but because he does not want to keep his child for the month I am gone, I have no other option than taking my son with me. Upon notifying him that he leaves me no other option than me taking my child with me , he sent me notice that its against the Court Rulings and I have NO RIGHT and AUTHORITY to make any decisions intact he makes the statement that HE does not find any reason for me to go visit my mother for her SURGERY as my mother has other family members. He also tells me if I want to go back home than I will have to give him my child's passport and social security so He can take my son to INDIA or WHEREVER HE WANTS though he has spine dislocation. I went to the superior court,county court,city court,police station.... to see what can I do about this kind of situation and the kind of answer I get is "I DONT KNOW".....Father (my ex-husband) doesn't pay ANY CHILD SUPPORT neither helps me as a courtesy for raising his child alone....i work in a car parts company where I earn very less so cannot afford a lawyer. I contacted several different LEGAL AIDS but either they have clinics mid next months or they are not looking into child custody cases.. If anyone can advise what are my rights or even what more can i do in this kind of situation would be DEEPLY APPRECIATED....Sorry it was kind of long and thanks for reading and leaving comments....

  Seek the advice of an attorney specializing in family law. Pro bono (free) legal representation may be available, contact the local or state bar association or a law school.
