The most serious allegation that you can attempt to prove in court is that of abuse or neglect of the child. Therefore, if you make this allegation you can expect a spirited denial from the parent whom you charge with such an action or pattern of actions. Such actions can not only cause a parent to lose a child permanently but also lead to criminal charges. It is important to remember that if you suspect the abuse of a child […]

If you are a grandparents who is actually providing primary care for your grandchildren you may need to take affirmative steps to protect your grandparents rights in the case that your grandchildren’s parents later come back and wish to assert their own custody or wishes. This can often be done by obtaining legal guardianship over the grandchildren, or by actually obtaining an order of custody. However you need to know the laws of custody and of your state to do […]

Anyone interested and involved with grandparents rights needs to be aware of the Troxel case and its subsequent implications on grandparents rights. The Supreme Court issued this ruling with a 6-3 decision in June of 2000. It cancelled out a state law in Washington which permitted courts to grant visitation rights to any interested party as long as it was in the best interest of the child. The Troxel v. Granville came about in 1993 when two grandparents asked for […]

Caring grandparents love to spoil their grandchildren and have special feelings for them. In some cases, grandparents are unable to have a close relationship with their grandchildren because of health issues and other reasons but this does not mean that the grandparents don’t love or want to see their grandchildren and this is something that the parents must think about. When a couple divorces they must decide or let the court decide, which parent the children will live with and […]

This is a question I get asked all the time by grandparents who are feeling shut out of their grandchildrens’ lives. Some amount of conflict between parents and grandparents over the raising of children is common. If you are having difficulty seeing your grandchildren the first (and second) options should be to attempt to negotiate and mediate a compromise with the parents. If you can avoid going to court you should do so. There is a lot of information on […]

I have just published the definitive volume on Grandparents Rights today. My new book No Greater Loss: The Guidebook to Today’s Grandparents Rights is now available in print. It contains everything you need to know about Grandparents Rights regarding visitation, custody, guardianship and much more. I have written this book to help bridge the gap between Logic and Law. Grandparents have provided and still provide so much caring continuity in our extended families…and yet there is a danger that these […]

The thing that bothers me most about the increasing need for Grandparents rights is that it is the children who suffer. Our grandkids deserve all the love and support we can give them. It is when this support is interrupted by two adults that are attempting to resolve and/or dissolve their own relationship with each other but using the children as weapons. As a caring grandparent this makes me angry. I realize that marriages are disintegrating at an ever increasing […]

Grandparents Rights are not something that are given to us. It is incumbent upon us to be proactive. I don’t mean that we take something from someone as much as we give something to the most important people in our lives. In today’s legal climate the best way to insure your Grandparents visitation rights is to be so much a part of your grandchildren’s lives that you are virtually indispensable. If you take every opportunity to create those magic moments […]

I wrote a hub page post on Monday and one of the comments reminded me why I do this stuff. In my mind Grandparents rights are all about the kids. I know in my heart of hearts that if we are to do anything with our energy then the highest and best use of that energy would be to help these little ones reach for whatever it is that they want in life. A corny but true fact is that […]
