*Subtitles in multiple languages are available. Please turn on the caption.
On Day 4 of Vincents hunger strike, three Japanese mothers share how they have been unable to see the children they gave birth to for years due to Japans single custody law.
Because of this archaic law, some 200,0000 children lose a parent each year. Mothers, fathers, Japanese and non-Japanese are all affected.
It is time to stand up for these children and demand the government implement #JointCustodyJapan

France, Australia, the US, Germany, Russia, Korea, Canada, Mexico, Lithuania, Finland, Italy, Spain, New Zealand, the UK, Ireland … these are all countries with children abducted in Japan! And that does not include the tens of thousands of Japanese parents affected each year.
These parents do not just lose custody. They lose complete parental authority post-divorce. That means they no longer have access or any decision-making power over their own child’s schooling, health decisions, etc. Their child can even be adopted by a step-parent or another guardian without that parent’s consent, completely erasing the parent out of a child’s life.
In Scott’s case, he was arrested and jailed in Japan’s notorious prisons simply for trying to check on his children. Listen to Scott, Vincent and Akiko’s stories of parental abduction in Japan https://findmyparent.org/category/youre-double/
