Parental kidnapping is:

II. What is Parental Kidnapping? Parental kidnapping is the practice of a noncustodial parent taking a child from the custodial parent from one state to another without court permission or in violation of court orders obtained through a divorce or custody hearing. The practice of parental kidnapping is forbidden by both federal and state laws in the absence of a provable emergency situation and can result in the noncustodial parent being charged with felony kidnapping. But often this threat does not stop parental kidnapping from occurring

So, no, this isn't kidnapping. Why do you want to be so dramatic about her being annoying??

Answer 2

Unless they have come to some type of agreement where the child can stay longer then techincally yes it is called kidnapping.  If they have a legal agreement that says she must return the child at, for example, eight pm on sunday, and she does not, the father can call the police and have her picked up.

It;s called Parental Kidnapping.
