Re: solution to abduction of children

You are going to have to be VERY aggressive. Law enforcement will help -- but their action will be limited unles there is evidence of physical danger. You need to go to court and get a writ and contempt order. You need a zillion certified copies of the order, and your decree. You need to bombard as many county law enforcement offices in Texas and Florida as you can with copies, and advise that the kids have been kidnapped by the non-custodial parent. You also need to bombard websites and organizations that focus on missing children. You need to be a very loud and very squeaky wheel.
