Wow OP talk about going through a hard time! That's awful, sounds like your sister might need psychiatric help. If you can, it might be worth alerting the police because if she is willing to abduct your son she might also move on to trying to abduct other children instead. Thank you for the update, I can't imagine how sucky this is for all of you but I am glad you have your son and husband and are safe.

I think your sister needs to see a therapist, that's not a heathly way of thinking at all. Although, if she did kidnap your baby, OZ is very strict with Visas, not to mention they cost a lot and if she was acting suspicious at the airport, they would probably ask a lot of questions about her and the baby. To be extra sure, lock up your child's passport, ID and birthcert in a safe; she won't get far without those.

While I condemn your sister's actions, and I'm glad you're taking the extra precautions to protect your child, (because truly you never know what could happen; some people will do anything if they're sure in their mind they can get away with it) I can't help but feel a little bad for her. Don't get me wrong, I think her little "joke" is sick and a sign that she needs someone professional to talk to. No one who is "joking" comes up with something that elaborate and goes to great extents to hide it. But what is it that's pushed her life into such a corner that she can't see past the veil of jealously and happy for her sister's success in life? Has she always been so spiteful? It's always a little rough with you see someone else living your dream while you fight tooth and nail to even have a smidgen of that, but to reach the limit where kidnapping seems like a good idea? Maybe it's time for a family intervention. She needs some help.

It's good you talked to the daycare about her but is anyone else authorized to get your son? She may pretend to be someone else to get him. I would also talk to your parents again, point out the facts that show it's not a joke and try to get them to acknowledge it. if they don't take her seriously, they may leave your son with her, even if it's just to go to the bathroom, and that's all the chance she needs

I'm sorry you have to put up with her. She should be happy for her little sister, not plotting to ruin her life! Heavily recommend you don't allow her anywhere near your son and maybe go to the police if you feel the nessecity

Keep that notebook and take it to the police. Family or not thats your child and He is more important than your psychotic sister

Your sister is what is known as: Batshit Insane.

That's super disturbing. Your parents reaction is worrying as well. Even if they don't take your sister's behavior towards YOU seriously, they should be concerned about their grandbaby Make a copy of that notebook for the police. At the very least this counts as stalking right now, if she does anything else document it so you have proof she is a danger to your son. If you can get a restraining order, do it.

I think a lot of people would like to continue seeing follow ups on this. Definitely go to the police with that notebook. She needs to be kept away from your baby at all costs. This is like my worst nightmare for my son and why only 2 people are allowed to babysit.

WOW It seems pretty serious, you should alert the police.

Sorry for your english? That was actually very articulate :)

I know it might seem cruel, but please, please, please, get a restraining order for your son or something of the sort. She clearly is crazy enough to take him and if you put something keeping her away from him legally, she can't escape the country with him. Please do something. The safety of your little boy matters more than your psycho sister.

oh jeez she's nuts man

She seems to need mental help, but that's not on op. It's literally dangerous for her to be around op and op's son. It's unfortunate, but op needs to look out for her and her child and that means keeping the sister as far away as possible.

Your English is perfect, better than that of most Americans where I live. Stay safe :)

your English is great. I agree with the others , take the journal . Your sister has serious issues but maybe she was indeed only pretending . Best of luck to your family .

Your English is very good! Don't worry about that. As for the situation, I'm sorry you had to go through that. At least you handled it well. Good luck!

Your sister is insane. I would get a restraining order. And possibly committed.

Good choice for choosing Australia! it's amazing. But yeah, your sister is batshit crazy.

How? How in any of that explanation did you see the sister as having a point?

I can only assume that you were being sarcastic....
