The other side of the fence

Re: "Japan must end the scourge of parental child abduction" by Amy Savoie (Hotline to Nagatacho, Nov. 9):

Just a thought from the other side of the fence:

What has the U.S. government — or any government for that matter — done for the mothers and children of the deadbeat dads that up and leave the families when things get to complicated with a Japanese wife in Japan, or when they figure out that living with a Japanese national in the States is too much of a hassle?
