Message: [QUOTE="Nehanda, post: 28317, member: 2262"] People can use the Convention on the Civil Aspects of International Child Abduction in Zimbabwe when a child is taken from their usual home without permission. This rule applies to children who lived in a country that agreed to the Convention before someone took them or kept them from their families. The child must be under 16 years old for the Convention to apply. The Convention helps when a child is taken or kept without the permission of the people who normally take care of them. If someone takes a child from their home country without permission, that's considered wrong if it breaks the rules of the country where the child lives. The people who normally take care of the child must have been actually taking care of them or would have been if the child hadn't been taken. If a child is taken from their home country without permission, the Convention can help them figure out what to do. The country where the child lives has rules about who gets to take care of the child, and if someone breaks those rules, the Convention can help. The people who take care of the child must have been following those rules before the child was taken. The Convention is used to help children who are taken from their families without permission. It's based on the rules of the country where the child lives. If someone takes a child without permission, the Convention can help the family get the child back, but only if the child is under 16 years old and the family is following the rules of the country where the child lives.
