I am having trouble with my parents.Whom I sponsored to come to Canada.
They runaway with my children(stubborn teenagers) and live with other people.
I would like to send them back home.
They are giving us emotional distress and it is not healthy anymore to keep up with this unhappy relationship with them.
They don’t want to go back home.
They start liking to stay in Canada.
But they are not with me anymore.
So what should I do?
Please respond to me.
Thank you!

1. If they are permanent residents, then there is nothing that you can do, they have right to remain in Canada.
2. As you sponsored them, you are financially responsible for them for 20 years, 10 if in Quebec.
