He can't take her to his country. By US law, a child must have his/hers fathers consent before a US passport will be issued for her. I hope this eases your mind. Im married to a Muslim man by birth who is not practicing at the moment . He lives here in US with me. We have been married for 2 years and together for 3. He is a hard worker and prompt at his workplace. I do not practice a religion but do believe in God and have an open mind. I want to say there are good men from some of these countries, but at same time because it is high fraud in these countries you have to be very careful. I hope you are not judging your son-in-law by what you read here. My husband has been discriminated against in the workplace and he tries so hard for everyone to like him and because of who he is, people are quick to judge him,

There is no reason this marriage can not work if he is an understanding individual. I can be hard headed and my husband is usually the one who gives in first and tries to smooth everything over. I read so much bad here before and after I met my husband and I too was encouraged to move on and not trust in any of these men. THEY ARE HUMAN and like each one of us, they make mistakes and have their own personalities, so judge your son in law on how he treats your daughter and grand daughter, and yourself being her family and judge him by and his character and actions. My husband travels to visit my own family more so than I do, Im proud to say. We have had a lot of judgments too, without allowing ones to get to know him.
