 Quote From: chancery2 I am a mother of a an 18 year old who never dated that I knew of. She had friends but never seriously dated any of them. One day I came home from work and she told me that 6am in the morning she was leaving to fly to United States to be her with new found online boyfriend. I was totally devastated but I couldn't stop her because she of a legal age. I was hoping the authorities at the airport would stop her from entering the United States as she only had a one way ticket. They didn't. Now she is an illegal immigrant in the United States. She has phoned me several times crying her eyes out that she doesn't like him and that he doesn't treat her the way that she thought she would be treated. I have offered for her to come home again but she doesn't want to come back and live in this town. I can't figure out why. She has a nice home and family here but she doesn't want to come back here to live. I am a single parent. Her father died January 2006. The latest is that since she can't stand living where she is now either that the boyfriend's mother has offered to have my daughter live with her in California. She said she would let me know. She hasn't. I don't know where she is now. This is all through on-line dating with a very naive 18 year old who hasn't a clue about what the world is out there but is having some very fast lessons being given to her. I am a widow now but I will never go the on-line dating route. Forget that one.
Chancery2 Am I to understand that your 18 year old Canadian daughter is in the States and you haven't heard from her and you don't know where she is? However the last person you know she was with was someone she met over the Internet who is treating her badly. Why haven't you alerted the authorities? Why aren't you putting your life on hold and going to the States and tracking her down and bringing her home? I would be frantic with worry, my youngest is 19 years old if this was her I would be doing all in my powers to trace her and bring her home. I'm sorry to hear your husband died so recently, maybe you aren't able to realise how serious all this is, due to your grief. But really if what you are saying is that your child is missing in a foreign country where she has no true friends or relatives then you must do something about it now. I wish you the best of luck and hope to hear from you that there is a happy resoloution to this frightening story. |
