The Maltese courts did not even ask the child how he felt about visiting his father...the separation took nearly 13 years!!! Now the mother is in prison as she did not force her 17 year old son to visit his father. The child did not want to go and was never consulted. The father took the issue back to court and got the mother jailed. The child is now motherless, and does not want to be with his father. Who is being punished???? The mother or the child? This is abuse! not only by the father but by the legal system.

The legal system continues to ignore a seventeen year old who knows his own mind. Send an email to the Minister of Justice today and demand they recognize the child's right to choose his own path.

ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING. Poor kid just wants to be with his mom. Stop punishing them both for a father who is clearly just being vindictive.

This is just wrong. A 17 year old is practically an adult and his opinion definitely counts. Let her out now.

My heart breaks for this family. Mothers should never be locked up for a teenagers choice. Leave them alone.

The courts in this country are a complete joke. Ruining a kids life because he wont visit someone he doesnt want to see is insanity.

Total abuse of power. How can they force a nearly grown man to see his dad if he says no. This system is broken.

Free her immediately. She has done nothing but protect her child from a situation he clearly doesnt want any part of.
