I am a "where does this take us if we decide this way" kind of gal. And I do NOT like the precedents this would set. I do not think we want to encourage ANY foreign nationals to kidnap children and bring them here- and that is exactly what we would be doing if we support this. For me the broader foreign and social implications of a decision like this are of extreme importance. While parental rights are very important- they are secondary to the public policy- in this case both good public/foreign policy and parental rights happen to align.

When I think about the vetching on this thread about parents rights! OY - On and on and on some people on this thread went (and on and on and on)- and yet those rights seem to be blithely forgotten. That is fascinating. But I suppose it is also predictable of issue driven politics that are not being generated by a comprehensive and rational framework.
