I have a very positive view of men building a relationship with a Russian woman with children.

I know quite a lot of fantastic and beautiful Russian women with children who were excellent candidates to start a serious relationship.

During my many travels I have to say that I have never seen a more loving, calm, patient and devoted mother in my life. I know it's a pretty big statement to make, but I think there are more than some of you readers out there who may disagree with what I have witnessed here on a regular basis.

Now because of this, I can honestly tell you that he sees a woman who cares for his children to such a degree is nothing more than dry and emotional turn for me.

These Russian and CIS ladies just stand out in a creature that they should always be a woman. And, as a man you just can not help but admire the level of maternal love, they project and be in awe of him.

So if you like people looking at this option for future relationships, I highly recommend it.

Now they say that I should also warn you of one important pitfalls that I've seen happen many times here.

If the father is still alive, very often I've seen cases where it would be easy to get the court papers to prevent the child from leaving the country. The following article is an example of what can go wrong.

    "Our family is broken apart": call step-father as court bans British girl to leave Russia for 7 years

    By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

    British girl 11 was told she could not leave Russia for seven years after she went to visit relatives.

    Victoria Osborne, step-daughter of a British university lecturer, was stopped by border guards as she was about to take flight back home.

    The boy, who was supposed to start a new home back to school in Hampshire, was returning from a trip to visit family with her mother, Tatiana.

    They were told that the girl's biological father, Colonel Yuri Gladkikh, from whom Tatiana has been separated for eight years, entered the order.

    Although they are British citizens traveling on a pair of Russian passports, making them subject to the law of the country - under which divorced parents are entitled to block the movement of their children out of the country until they are 18.

    Mrs. Osborne, 34, was told she was free to leave, but she refused to go without her daughter, who is known as the Vic.

    Stepfather of Victoria, Dr Patrick Osborne, is now fighting to bring his family back to his home in Winchester.

    "This order can not be blue, he said." Mr. Gladkikh has never tried to play a role in the life of Vic in the last eight years, except for one telephone call per year. Sometimes he does not even call her on her birthday.

    Dr Osborne, 52, who married Tatiana six years ago after meeting her while working in Russia, added: "We know that it will not be easy, but we are determined to get our family back together again.

    "Both Tatiana and Vic are desperately trying to return to this country. When we go there to see Tatiana's family Mr Gladkikh knows exactly where we are because his mother lives in the same village - but he never tries to see Vic.

    "I first heard about this was when Tatiana left a message on the answering machine.

    "It is becoming more problematic, and it will get harder and harder the farther for her."

    Mrs. Osborne has been locked in negotiations with lawyers 1,500 miles in Saratov, a city in southern Russia, where she and her daughter were in Victoria was stopped last Thursday.

    Mrs Osborne said from Saratov: "We are devastated. If we had known about this limitation, we never would have gone to Russia this summer.

    "Our family is broken apart and Vick is not in school. She was so looking forward to it.

    "I will never leave her for himself. She should be with my mother and feel that she loved and wanted. This is a betrayal of his biological father.

    Family could face a long battle court if the order is not revoked by Colonel Gladkikh.

    They sought help from the British Embassy in Russia, but was told they could do little because they were traveling on a Russian passport.

    Dr. Osborne, who lectures in civil engineering at the University of Southampton, said he was trying to get her new school, Westgate, in Winchester, to send work for her by email.

    "It's unbelievable that any parent, however far removed from daily upbringing, would deny his child the right to good education, access to her home and friends, he said.

    Dr Osborne said the family had talks with Colonel Gladkikh over ownership flat in Saratov.

Keep in mind that this sad story is not an isolated case, and I would consider a tragic attitude to be unhappy colonel rate among divorced men in Russia with children.

Events such as this is beyond the scope of sour grapes, and to direct sabotage vengeful family's future security and happiness. Unfortunately, as Russia faces a demographic crisis is devastating huge political and nationalistic pressures that children do not leave the country to a better life elsewhere.

(This is even the case for the orphans, too.)

Russian state-controlled media was clearly preparing to portray the Russian news only spouse and child abuse in the history of the United States and the West. This action will only have to tell you all very much.

This does not bode well for the long term and, as I mentioned in an earlier post, if you're going to find yourself a real woman to have a serious relationship with then for heaven's sake, do not wait. At least in Russia, just can not be on your side, as I'm sure the government and the media will continue to further inflate his campaign to prevent women from abroad to the West.

If you are considering a relationship with a Russian woman with a child, you should find out what the status of the father of this child, and if he initiated the hearing as to prevent a child from Russia.

I've heard about Western men reaching bribery in the release of these fathers of their children on their legal understanding. Obviously, any step, so filled with significant caveats, and I hope no one finds out there to contemplate this option.

Let us hope that Dr. Osborne and his lovely family can be reunited quickly back to the UK.
