My son was 17 months old and visiting his grandparents from his father's side when I got Tha call from a social worker that I ha e to come to my home town immediately. I already planned to go and pick up my son and I told him that I will be there in 3 hours. When I got there he told me I was reported as a missing person and that I have to give temporary custody to my in laws. It's little to say that I was baffled! I started arguing that he is going to daycare, that he has all he needs, that I'm working and providing, but he said that if I don't do this I will go to prison and lose him forever. I didn't know the laws of custody and I believed him, so I singed the temporary custody to them and my battle with the Sistem began. First of all I gave up my job at Belgrade and came back to my home town so I would be close to my boy. I wanted to fair to my boss so I did the last month at work as promised. I traveled every weekend to Smederevo to try to see my son, but they never let me. Even the social worker told me that they can do that,but then I read a bit more about the family law I threatened to take them to court and they finally let me see my son. God I was happy and sad at the same time! I never thought it was possible to feel like I was at that moment when he huged me so tight that I was astounded by the strength in those little arms. I missed him so badly... In the mean time I talked to an old friend, well old love I better say and he asked me to marry him and I agreed, but that is not the point of the story. We started living together and he shared my fight with the sistem. It took us 2 years to get my son back. In those two years his grandparents managed to teach him to be scared of me, to hit me, to eat junk food, to be mean... I fought so hard along with my now husband to get him back... I was in the seven heaven when finally I got my boy back... In those two years I gave birth to another son who is currently trying to take my phone from me😁 He is a strong willed boy and he adores his big brother. We baptized our boys and I couldn't be happier... Life is good again 🥰🥰🥰
