Dear Friends,
Posting again after several years. I wanted to reach out because I find my self in bad situation. I am still in this foreign land on the other side of the globe from where I am home with broken expectations of seeing my kids again. Many things happened to me while working and living here and where I am at is really a country that do not accept foreigners even though their issues with decreasing population and yet I do my best I managed to learn their difficult language and I wonder what for now. But is still my kids after the divorce prompted by the society not accepting and I am having my own condition, rarely have access to my kids las seven years no contact at all and I miss them so much. I wonder the meaning of my life. And at the same time need to help my family back home so I am just a working wallet to some, I cannot sit in a public coffee shop and drink coffee in peace and most severe my role as father has been taken from me. I am revenant. Just needed to vent someplace among you who some know my story. If anyone knows what should be my pathway forward I appreciate it so much if you could share.

Are your children minors? If so do you not have court order giving you visitation rights or you lost parental rights? Typically if you have no access to your kids and have parental rights, you ought to go to court so judge can establish when and how you could see your kids.
If your kids are adults, then there’s not much you can do if they don’t want to see you. Some countries aren’t very welcoming to foreigners but not being able to sit in a public coffee place is a bit extreme. It says you are in Tokyo. I know Americans who live and work in Japan. Plenty of people do. Even if you stand out, you certainly can lead public life going places and doing things . Not sure why you can’t. If you have no access to your kids and seemingly either didn’t fight in court or lost your case (as 7 years is a very long time), is there any way you can just return to what place you came from? |

I see you are from Venezuela. Not an easy place at the moment so I understand why you are hesitant to return but maybe being at home with family would be better?
I also recall now asking you if you went to court several years ago and you never answered. Did family court deny you visitation rights? If that’s the case you might have to wait to reestablish contact when your kids are 18. I know that happens to people. Your kids will be adults or maybe already are and you can try then |

God bless your children. I know the pain of being separated from your loved ones better than anyone else. Your kids will take care of themselves, you take care of your own self and stop worrying

Hi Brothers, Sisters, my father said before passing that I won the lottery but backwards. He also said tough times don’t last but tough people do. I have been out of country over 24 years as few know I am from a country overtaken by hyper corrupt military regime influenced by Castro Cubans and Colombian paramilitary, I hate it I cannot see the color red. That a side the fact of my own mental issues and my kids has me to the ground and I am trying to get up and battle but is f hard. I only have my self to blame for not being smarter. I don’t know how much I have left but will keep the good fight Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro |

You asked people for suggestions, but when I made suggestions (repeatedly on your different threads) and asked you questions with the goal of helping you ignore my posts. If you are just venting then it’s fine but you asked for help
