UK, Ireland / Can a Polish mother bring her child to England without the fathers consent? [22]

The home thing is another problem; the house is the mothers, left to her by her dad when he passed. So he refuses to leave, also he has only recently got a job (last 6 months) so things are awkward to say the least.

Don't get me wrong I know there are 3 sides to every story, his hers and the truth, but things are degrading rapidly and I believe the child is suffering because of it

The relationship he has with the child is not a bad one but I think falls far short of an average dad, he is generally a good guy, not a big drinker, not on drugs, but he probably spends more time on the xbox than playing with the child, and he refuses to look after the child while the mother goes out. So the relationship is more lets say an hour a day playing no bathing or stuff like that

Not exactly the other man, not yet anyway. i have a relationship with the mother but you may not believe it but we are very good friends and although we have grown together as such it remains friendship at the moment

Every offer has been made to the fa

Thank you all for your replies
As always these things are complicated, and I was hoping to find someone who had experience of these things

The father has refused to sign anything that will let her take the child out of Poland
He has been offered 4 free flights and free accommodation (1 week) per year so he can visit and spend time with his child

Also he has been offered (with the condition he returns the child) 2 times during the year when he can have the child in Poland initially a month each visit, until the child reaches school age then obviously things will change due to school holiday time

Also he can pay for himself as many times as he wants to come and visit for weekends of anything like that

My opinion is that it is not ideal but may be much better than a court would offer in this country (working on the principle of every other weekend and 2 weeks in the summer) I may be wrong there.

Even with all the offers he refuses to agree and refuses to agree to a separation or divorce, that is why it has come to this.

Again thanks for all the replies

Thank you for your answers. is it possible that she could be accused of kidnapping the child?
