Expressing her emotional distress, Ms. Simeon revealed that her last opportunity to fulfill her maternal responsibilities towards their son occurred when he was only three years old.
“I might have had my faults, he also had his faults too. That is why I said I didn’t feel anything when he got married, but the only painful part is that he didn’t allow me to mother my child.
“He took my son away without my consent; he was just 4 years old when he came to the US. My child was 3 when I mothered him last. He wasn’t picking my calls, and when he picked up, he would tell me he would call back as he was busy, and for another 3 to 4 months, I wouldn’t get through.
“I was frustrated and depressed. I just went for a movie premiere, and someone told me I’m not here to see my son. That was how they took us to court.”
