Comments for Supreme Reverts Lower Court: American Boy Sean Stays in Brazil at http://www.brazzilmag.com , comment 0 to 20 out of 49 comments http://www.brazzilmag.com Mon, 30 Nov 2009 04:14:05 +0100 FeedCreator 1.7.2 http://www.brazzilmag.com/content/view/10807/1/#pc_23103 Anyone asks about why his mother left USA? What kind of father he had there? Anyone could imagine the child´s opinion? It´s not about Brazil or USA, it´s all about who will be responsible for the child wellness. What a shame this subject about fight between nations. Let´s see what´s the best for the child... Not who is winning the battle... - Gerson Vainer Thu, 10 Sep 2009 12:20:04 +0100 http://www.brazzilmag.com/content/view/10807/1/#pc_22308 So, Perplexed, you think it was in the best interest of the child to keep him from experiencing this kind of relationship with his own father?? Would you feel differently if his father had kept him from his mother's family for all of these years and fed him lies about them? Just because a person is held hostage for five years, does not make the the kidnappers the appropriate guardians for the victim. The boy doesn't know his father because his mother's family has not allowed him to know him. They have lied to him and brainwashed him to their own advantage--emotional abuse at its worst. They have been unforgiveably selfish. Sean will know the truth one day and resent them for what they have stolen from him. There was a time when Sean could have lived where he belonged with his father and could have visited and loved his mother's family as well. The mother's family and stepfather ruined any chance of that by withholding his father's love from him. I hope they feel that his childhood years of love were worth the resentment and distrust he will have for them as an adult. - Nan Mon, 22 Jun 2009 20:05:50 +0100 http://www.brazzilmag.com/content/view/10807/1/#pc_22288 Yes! The result of five years of lies, efforts at parental alienation, showing pitiful weakness of character and inability to guide an adult (now deceased) daughter to make informed, intelligent decisions. It is unthinkable that Silvana could be entrusted to raise a child. Any child. May God have mercy on her misguided soul. - Julia Sat, 20 Jun 2009 23:57:53 +0100 http://www.brazzilmag.com/content/view/10807/1/#pc_22267 http://revistaepoca.globo.com/Revista/Epoca/foto/0,,19018474,00.jpg http://revistaepoca.globo.com/Revista/Epoca/foto/0,,18971015,00.jpg - Perplexed Fri, 19 Jun 2009 16:02:30 +0100 http://www.brazzilmag.com/content/view/10807/1/#pc_22212 Marcelo, If your spoken English is as poor as your written English, I can see why you may be losing your job. Why did you come to the US in the first place? What was so bad about Brazil that made you leave? Don't let us keep you from your return trip...you won't be missed. - Nan Fri, 12 Jun 2009 00:09:58 +0100 http://www.brazzilmag.com/content/view/10807/1/#pc_22207 Marcelo DID YOU KNOW THAT THE STATE OF TEXAS HAS A GRATER GNP THAN THE COUNTRY OF BRASIL - forrest allen brown Thu, 11 Jun 2009 15:25:19 +0100 http://www.brazzilmag.com/content/view/10807/1/#pc_22193 reuters.com — The U.S. budget deficit almost hit $1 trillion during the first six months of this fiscal year which began on October 1, according to estimates released on Monday by the Congressional Budget Office. SEE SYLVIA STUPID AMERICAN IMBECILS!!!!!! YOUR COUNTRY WILL BANKRUPT!!!! YOU WILL BANKRUPT IF YOU ARE NOT SHOOTED BEFORE BY A WHITE SUPREMACIST DRIVING CRAZY AS USUAL!!!!! - Marcelo Wed, 10 Jun 2009 19:39:49 +0100 http://www.brazzilmag.com/content/view/10807/1/#pc_22192 I also know people from Brazil and they don't want to ever go back there, evendently there is a reason why they are pursuing a USA Citizenship. How many Americans are pursuing a Brazilian Citizenship? IN TODAY'S US ECONOMIC DECAY, LOTS OF AMERICANS ARE PURSUING A PASSPORT FROM BRAZIL. DON'T YOU SEE BRAZIL'S INFESTED WITH LOTS OF THEM????? THEY DON'T WANT TO FILE FOR BANKRUPTCY FOR NOT BEING ABLE TO PAY THEIR MEDICAL CARE BILLS ESPECIALLY IF THEY HAVE A MEDICAL INSURANCE!!!! MEDICAL COMPANIES REFUSE TO COVER THE ENTIRE TREATMENT THEY HAVE TO BE SUBMITTED WEHEN IN TROUBLE!!!! AMERICA IS A SHITTY COUNTRY!! STUPID AMERICANS HAVE TO SELL THEIR HOMES TO PAY THEIR $200,000 MEDICAL BILS. I BEEN HAVE LIVED HERE FOR 8 YEARS AND HAVE PLANS TO RETURN TO BRAZIL YOU IDIOT AS MANY FRIENDS OF MINE INTEND! BTW BRAZILIANS, LOTS OF THEM ARE RETURNING BECAUSE THEY ARE ABOUT TO LOSE THEIR JOB IN THE US MARKET, FEELING BRAZIL AS A SAFER HARBOR, WITH A MORE STABLE ECONOMY. YOU TOO ARE GOING TO LOSE YOUR STUPID JOB YOU PIECE OF TRASHHHHHHHHHHHHH. - Marcelo Wed, 10 Jun 2009 17:57:52 +0100 http://www.brazzilmag.com/content/view/10807/1/#pc_22191 He is an AMERICAN Citizen. How would his stepfather feel if someone took his daughter to another counyry? He has not right to another man's son. Have his own son... Same story as to Anna Nicole's daughter, she was rightfully given to her biological father after her mom died. Also, that was kidnapping of a child you hove no authority to have. The United States should pursue to prosecute all involved in keeping this boy out of the rightful hands of his biological father. As I said before "BORN IN THE USA"! NOT IN A THIRD WORLD COUNTRY! I also know people from Brazil and they don't want to ever go back there, evendently there is a reason why they are pursuing a USA Citizenship. How many Americans are pursuing a Brazilian Citizenship? Give us back our child you thieves!!!!!! - Sylvia Wed, 10 Jun 2009 17:07:22 +0100 http://www.brazzilmag.com/content/view/10807/1/#pc_22188 I commend the Lins de Silva family for trying to act in the best interest of the boy. It would be a lot easier for them to let the boy go than to have this publicity. Maybe he wants to honor the wishes of his departed wife. The problem is that they have no right. It is up to the natural father to say where his son will or will not live as long as he is able to provide for his child. When we have children we should have the final say in where our children should live. Mr Goldman has been deprived of his son long enough. It is because of the crime of the mother keeping the child away from the other parent that he has not known the love of his father. He has not experienced that. Sean has a right to live and receive the love his father. The longer this goes on the most unfair it is the Sean. He must be returned to his father as soon as possible. There should be a transistion period so that he can adapt to his home with his father. It will be difficult. Please don't deprive him of the opportunity to grow up with his father. His mother is gone and his 1/2 sister is just a few months old. He needs his father. Mr Goldman has the right to say how his child should be reared. What values he should have. He never gave up that right it was stolen from him. Do not continue to perpetrate this evil - leelee Tue, 09 Jun 2009 14:55:53 +0100 http://www.brazzilmag.com/content/view/10807/1/#pc_22186 it is very important to bring back all the bodies to reunite them with there familys . THEY ARE DEAD BUT IT IS MORE IMPORTANT TO GIVE THEM BACK than it is to give back goldman his son - Forrest Allen Brown Tue, 09 Jun 2009 09:14:40 +0100 http://www.brazzilmag.com/content/view/10807/1/#pc_22183 I think this entire situation is sad. It's sad for the father and it's sad for the boy. The only one I don't feel badly about is a step father that cared so little for the child as to put him through this instead of trying to find an amiable way to resolve it. There is absolutely no doubt the father has rights to know his son. As it is now, he has not been afforded those rights at all. There is no doubt the child should be able to maintain a relationship with his half-sister and his step-father. There must be some way to allow this to happen. Instead of the step-father wasting all this money for a lawyer to keep the child there full time, he could be using that money to allow the child to have some kind of resolution to having all members of his family to get to be a part of his life. I do feel that Brazil is full of corruption to allow this to happen and go on for so long. His father has been fighting since the day the child left. I can only imagine the pain he has suffered. I hope they resolve this soon, the only problem is: now if the father wins and gets his son back, he will be too afraid to let him go visit in Brazil again and I can't say that I blame him at all. - Julie Stergar Mon, 08 Jun 2009 17:41:08 +0100 http://www.brazzilmag.com/content/view/10807/1/#pc_22182 living in the US want to take there kids back to brasil and put them in school make them live there and grow up under such a justice system . lets find out stop all visa to the US for brasilians going to school . working in the US , and tourist visa for them also . stop the green card lottery for them . then see how many rich people contact there friends in power there to up hold the law entered into by brasil and its government - Forrest Allen Brown Mon, 08 Jun 2009 12:34:31 +0100 http://www.brazzilmag.com/content/view/10807/1/#pc_22181 WELL DONE, WELL DONE. - Pennylane Mon, 08 Jun 2009 10:27:22 +0100 http://www.brazzilmag.com/content/view/10807/1/#pc_22180 Just goes to show you that Brazil's not ready. - West Coast Mon, 08 Jun 2009 08:54:16 +0100 http://www.brazzilmag.com/content/view/10807/1/#pc_22173 The arrogance of vanity has a financial price that I am sure no Brzilian's ego is willing to pay the currently incurred damages. You really don't know much about Brazilians, do you? Most Brazilians - and ESPECIALLY the elite (who can afford it) - will follow the family honor straight off a plank, if necessary. Plus, I highly doubt money is much of an obstacle for the L&S. - Zeke Sat, 06 Jun 2009 18:19:38 +0100 http://www.brazzilmag.com/content/view/10807/1/#pc_22171 8 kids were aborted yesterday in the county where I live. About 8 will be aborted today. 8 more will be aborted tomorrow. 8 more will be murdered on Monday. The county has 400,000 people and is located south of Toledo. Sean belongs with Mr. Goldman, not the kidnappers. Having said that, we as Americans are not on the moral high ground when it comes to care of children, especially as to Brazil where abortion is illegal. As for corruption, we have legalized it via campaign contributions. When was the last time one of the angels in the United States Senate was expelled for anything? At least 4 Brazilian senators have been expelled during the last decade, two because they discovered the results of a secret vote to expel another senator. Government institutions here, like Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, generate a global recession, and nobody is accountable. Zeituni Onyango---she's the one who can tell us whether or not U.S. law is applied evenly. She's illegal. She's still here. Just ask her nephew. He lives in a national park at 1600 Pennsylvania Av. - Fred Sat, 06 Jun 2009 11:20:58 +0100 http://www.brazzilmag.com/content/view/10807/1/#pc_22167 Aiding and abeting of kidnapping is a first degree felony. The seizing of assets held in American financial institutins and confiscation of travel documents of those participant parties should test the love of the step parents until such time that they are tried in an American court for felonious kidnapping, and abduction. The psychological damage alone should garner millions of judgments. The arrogance of vanity has a financial price that I am sure no Brzilian's ego is willing to pay the currently incurred damages. Sooner or later ther perpetrators of this frace will be presented with a bill exceeding anthing they have experienced in Brazilian jurisprudence. - aes Fri, 05 Jun 2009 23:54:33 +0100 http://www.brazzilmag.com/content/view/10807/1/#pc_22162 An eye for an eye until the whole world's blind? Blind nationalism? Rabid ideologies...? This, from a citizen of a country engaged in two illegal wars whose president cheerfully told the entire world "its our way or the highway"? From the citizen of a country which feels it can ignore the Geneva Conventions, the U.N. and any lil' ol' international law it likes? Please... :P The United States can go piss up a rope as far as I'm concerned. Like I said, Sean will be fine no matter who gets him, but the spectacle of Americans frothing at the mouth in impotency is just too amusing and I hope it lasts as long as the L&S can drag it out. - Zeke Fri, 05 Jun 2009 18:46:44 +0100 http://www.brazzilmag.com/content/view/10807/1/#pc_22154 Concerning ZE with the pictures of 3 corrupted U.S. officials, he is 100 % correct, but....but....but he miserably failed by having NOT published the pictures of MANY HUNDREDS OF CORRUPTED BRAZILIANS OFFICIALS. Why ? Too long to post their pictures ? You are like a serial killer accusing a petty theft robber ! Concerning Americans from the North : What is the ONLY Developed Country on Earth that still has the death sentence not only in its constitution AND STILL execute deaths sentences ??????? The United States of America ! Conclusion : Americans from North & South are nothing less than INJUST countries and THIRD WORLD MINDS !!!!!! Who could prove me wrong ? Ohhhhhh and in South America deaths sentence is a way of life. No need for courts decisions. Just look at Brazil that has one of the World Highest Crime Rate. 6 (yessss...SIX) times higher than in the USA on a....per hundred thousands capita ! CHEATERS ALWAYS LOSE ! LOSERS ALWAYS CHEAT ! :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o - ch.c. Fri, 05 Jun 2009 00:04:26 +0100
