This topic should be the one stickied in the main forum instead of the Sin Sot nonsense. My heart goes out to the OP and others in this terrible situation.

Thanks for all your advice, I agree with the responses I am getting.
I won't become emotionally involved with anybody who is from a country that is not a member of the Hague agreement again like Thailand this is why my wife has not been charged and my son returned, Parental Child Abduction is not seen as a crime in Thailand.
Is my best option is to just locate my son and bring him back?
British embassy can help locate my child, I will need to call them.
Surely as my son is British, I should have the control of his British passport? not a Thai in Thailand I don't think.
Would I need a court order for the return of the passport?
A suspect any court order regarding lengh of duration I can bring my son to UK could be Vetod from the UK because Thailand is not in the Hague agreement.. and a Thai court order is not likely to be valid in the UK is it? so I shouldn't think any Thai Court would try to do this when deciding custody rights?
I sound selfish I know, but I want my son to grow up in England where we don't have huge numbers of Hepatisis, TB, AIDS and much less road accidents, no babies on motorbikes, real toilets and showers in all homes.. not a hole in the floor and a bucket of water like I've had to put up with when staying with my wifes family.

Sadly this is your problem and yours alone. Nobody can or will help you in Thailand inc the embassy. You have no rights at all under Thai law and even if you did the authorities here will not assist you. You have as I see it just one option and that is to be equally creative and con your wife into bringing your son back to England. Perhaps a death in the extended family and an unexpected windfall for your son but he must return to England to inherit? Thai's are intoxicated by the smell of money use it to your advantage! She conned you so now you must put on your thinking cap and find something that will make her take the return trip ...
