Reply to comment by Odd_Ad_5639 in TIFU by cheating on my wife a second time by Odd_Ad_5639

Why do you think you can't have ANY contact at all?? I'm just curious.... have you murdered somebody in her home country, and the police is after you? Haha. Even if her parents hate you, you can still be in the picture. I dont think any country can remove visitation rights without a solid reason. My colleague's ex is an addict and criminal, and even he gets to see the kid every week

Rule of law isn’t as strong in every country. Just because it’s law doesn’t mean you can enforce your rights.

In the country in question I have, based on credible multiple sources, I will have essentially 0 ability for visitation

Then, unfortunately, your wife has to stay here to keep the kids. She can't take the kids out of the country without your permission. It's the law, at least in most Western countries. She has to stay, and you HAVE TO support her financially so she can keep the kids. Especially the newborn.....you'll have only visitation rights for less than two hours at a time as the baby would need to feed. Talk to her with reasons that this is the situation and you'll do your best to support her and the kids.... but she has to stay here... it sucks... I feel for her. You messed up big time... pregnancy with STI is dangerous and high risk... you even put your unborn child at risk with your mistake. Just be as kind as you can be from now on... you caused a lot of pain..
