Chasing Parent Creed


I am a 'Chasing Parent' who was left behind in the wake of my child's criminal international abduction. It is because of the love that I hold for my child, I am pro-active and act immediately using whatever applicable laws are available to me in order to protect my child. I will not rest until I do everything within my means to secure my child's safety and bring my child home.

I am a mother. I am a father. I am a sister. I am a brother. And I am someone's child, too. But most of all, I am a devoted parent to my child, who looks to me for love, comfort, guidance, and support. I am part of my child's identity and foundation.

As a 'Chasing Parent', I move into the unknown storms that surround my child's abduction. I know there will be many challanges that lie ahead of me. It does not matter. Regardless of the severity of the destructive forces that I will face, I will endure all that comes in my path in the name of the unconditional love I have for my child.

I support The Hague Convention on the Civil Aspects of International Child Abduction and urge all nations, regardless of whether they are signatories to the international treaty or not, to follow and enforce expeditiously the rules of law established by the international community.

I do not accept being known as a 'Left Behind Parent'. I will not allow the criminal act perpetrated on my child to define me. I am not 'left behind' because I act with all due urgency in any jurisdiction wherever my child may be.

I am in fact a 'Chasing Parent' filled with hope that through my actions, I will reunite with my innocent child who has been victimized by the act of parental abduction. I know that the boundless love I have for my child will guide me as I chase into the storms. I will bring my child home.
