My godson ### was adopted three years ago. Adoptive father and biological father are brothers. They are ###. The adoption was done in ### with the agreement of both parties. ### was then brought to ### by his adoptive mother. In January this year the adoptive mother took ### to ### on a first family visit since the adoption. The biological mother — who appears to be unbalanced — insisted that ### spend six days with her. Adoptive mother agreed. She went to stay with her own parents. ### was never returned. Both biological parents attacked adoptive mother both verbally and physically. They said they wanted to keep ###. It has all been extremely distressing. Adoptive father in ### tried to negotiate over phone — ordered money etc — but adoptive mother refused the offer. Adoptive parents didn’t involve the police for fear of the whole thing escalating — as it is all ‘in the family’. Tomorrow adoptive mother is flying back to ### without ###. We are all extremely upset. Please pray that ### is returned to his adoptive parents — he is only ### and they are the only parents he has known. We worry about him as he is a very sensitive child. At the moment all communications between the two families have broken down. Only God can help. I am a Christian — all the others involved are ###. But we know for God there are no boundaries. Please pray. I have been in a very dark place the last ### days. In Jesus, ###
