Exactly what I was asking in my post on the very first page.

I'm not going to get into who is "right", or who the kids should stay with, because frankly, that is none of my, or anyone else's business.

What I am asking is, what's the benefit of going?

Generally speaking, not specifically in regards to this situation, this plan doesn't sound very solid to me. If 'Parent A' has the kids in a far away country, and 'Parent B' wants to fly there, pick up the kids and come back right away when 'Parent A' doesn't want that to happen...how exactly is that...possible?

Look, I'm not saying people should or shouldn't donate, or that she should or shouldn't fly there. As I said, none of anyone's business. But like someone said previously, is it 'unable', or 'unwilling'?

'Unable' would mean a serious financial burden on both parties.

'Unwilling', on the other hand...well, how would one expect to fly there and come back in the span of a week, let alone a day? Even with the assistance of local law enforcement, this sort of matter could take months to solve. Is there much point to raising thousands of dollars for flight tickets that may go to waste?

Perhaps this person should raise money for a single one-way ticket, seek assistance from local law/consular agencies, while raising the remainder of the funds.

I just hope the kids turn out okay in all of this.
