Countless Children Are Held Apart From Loving Parents

This site is dedicated to Tomu “TJ” Kutsukake, a boy now living in Japan with his Japanese mother, forbidden all contact with his American father since July 30, 2022. The hope is to shed light on children like TJ around the world who are at this very moment forbidden all contact with one loving parent by the other. Countless children abducted by one parent or simply denied contact with the other by virtue of arcane and/or corrupt legal systems suffer in silence every day.

Even some first world nations choose not to enforce international law, specifically the Hague Abduction Convention to which there are 101 Contracting States, including Japan. Japan is perhaps the most notable of all convention partners in terms of its blatant disregard for the treaty. The nation of Japan refuses to honor its participation in the international convention by deliberately offering no legal mechanisms for enforcement. A Hague ruling in favor of an aggrieved parent is nothing more than a verdict to be ignored by the Japanese Government.

Domestic and international child abduction, denial of legal visitation rights and parental alienation destroy the lives of parents and children alike.


I laid a path of calm from my steps to yours, TJ.
No banners, no noise—just an open afternoon.
Let’s place one hour on the table and protect it.
Yuka, help me make that hour real for him.

Andrew, let me see the boy I’m still father to.

TJ, the family photo has a space no one fills.  
Yuka, one click could complete the picture.  
The camera lens fogs with sighs.  
Smiles freeze unfinished.

👴👵 Today in Japan is Respect for the Aged
Day.
A reminder of the wisdom, love, and strength that
grandparents and elders bring into our lives.

Children thrive when they are connected to their entire
family. Not just one parent. Not just one side. Their
roots go deep. Through…
