Can a Parent Leave the Country Without the Other Parents Consent

The fact she considered it makes it reasonable for the child's father to be wary of her intentions. The fact she discarded the idea because of her green card and not the father's relationship makes it even worse. She should not be trusted to act in the child's best interest with a relationship with the father.

(I am not defending his non-payment of support.)

I do understand where you are coming from but I have no interest in leaving the country. I just paid over $500 to renew my Greencard. I have a good life and a good paying job now. Things I did not have when I was considering going back to Germany for a year last year. Unfortunately, the childs father has not much interest in her. He constantly misses or shortens his weekends. I have never, and will never do anything that might be an issue for my daughter to have a relationship and see her father on a regular basis. Btw, he actually allowed me to take her to a state at the other side of the country and while were there for over 2 month he stopped calling or asking about her after 27days. After we came back, he did not ask about her or talked to her from Feb-May. He is the one that does not have the best interest with his relationship with his daughter.

I never had a problem traveling on my own with my child either. However, I have heard that Germany is particularly strict on the issue.

Yes, they are. Especially in regards to entering the country with different passport. And my daughter is dual citizen, so she will need both.

We have done all the court paperwork. My daughter is almost 5. He is my ex boyfriend. Paternity, custody and all that has been established. It does not say anything about a parent leaving the country with the child.

I believe they do make phone calls as it has happened to my friend before. She told me it was because she and her children have a different last name. But yes, I could be absolutely wrong about that.
