Is he asking you to take him to Turkey, or somewhere in the U.K?
The thing is, if you are taking your son out of the country to visit his father, you have to use your gut instinct.....Is he the sort of man who would snatch your son, you know him, and although others are warning you that he may, there's no saying he actually will.
If you feel that you would like your son to see his father in Turkey but are unsure, do not go alone and do not let your ex (I'm assuming) take him anywhere without you. Make sure you see a solicitor and have a residence order with regard to your son, so that if the worse happens and he did take him you are protecting yourself and your son. I know Turkey is a country where it is unlikely that any court would allow your ex to keep him anyway, but it is a chance you take, and the last thing you want is to be fighting in another country to get your son back, so think carefully. There is a website you may like to pay a visit to where there maybe links with the worries you have. www.egotm.com
Good luck.

Are you worried that he might take your son and escape the country and return to Turkey? Well, I can't say that I've never heard of such a case (it has happened here in the United States as well). I'm curious if you intend to let him have an unsupervised visit with your son. I wouldn't do that at all.
If you are really concerned about this, you might want to speak with a lawyer if you are that concerned about it. Otherwise, if you are going to be with him at the same time, then I would be less concerned... but perhaps cautious.
