Is it a crime in Australia to hide someone from relatives who want to see them?
My Fathers 2nd wife will not let us see our father, what is worse she has hidden him in another state and informs us that she will let us know where long after he has died. This is so she can keep everything that is in his Will.
In the meantime dad is dying and has Alzheimer's so how can we find him before he passes on?
I know that he will not know who we are but it is too sad not to have a chance to see him again or go to his funeral.
2 AnswersLaw & Ethics7 years agoAm I in any danger? Or is it all just attention seeking?
My adult child of 22ys lives with me. She has several physical illnesses that make it difficult for her to go to work and she spends a lot of time on the computer. She has anxiety and depression, and has medication for it from her Psychiatrist and therapy from her psychologist, she wont take any of her meds .on a regular basis and is really dirty and lazy. Her sheets are changed each 2-3 months and she smells bad. (Im not allowed in her room) Her room has no floor space showing and is wall to wall clothes, none in the draws, all old food and dishes are on the floor and bed. She does shower though.
Lately she has disclosed to several people that she would like to push me down the stairs. She has also over the last few months displayed an interest in the bizarre. Showing me pictures on the net of supposedly cooked human body parts. She has told he elder brother that she and some of her net friends are interested in eating human flesh and that it would not be hard to access. When he suggested that the person being eaten may not be concenting she said it doesnt matter to her. Some of those people are comming to visit her from other countries she says.
I spoke to her medical people and they say they will look in to it. I dont feel very comfortable with it all. I work 12 hours a day to provide for us and am tired when I get home to a messy house and then to cook and clean then to sleep to work again next day I am 57.
I have bought her a good camera and art supplies and take an interest in her life and the quality of it. She is around 18 stone and when she gets moody she pushes me or thumps me on the arm telling me it doesnt hurt when it does. I cant get help for her any more than is already available.
I think the interest in eating human has grown from when she used to cut herself and she liked the blood. She has nowhere else to go and I just dont know what more I can do.
I felt compelled to look at her internet history and didnt like what I found. It showed web sites of human eating and other cartoon sites of roasted people and the preparation of them before cooking Any thoughts on my problem? Should I write to the health minister or tell her to leave. I feel afraid.
