654 JoanPfaffFLUSMother of granddaughter involved with new man and is pregnant by him, and will not allow granddaughter to see or even talk to me on phone. She lives in Ohio. I have taken care of her and baby until she met this man.
655 TheresaGonzalezSCUSI have raised my grandson for 3 years and now his mother has decided that my son is her enemy because he remarried and denies me the right to see my grandson. I am the only parent he has ever learned life skills from snd he loves me emensly. Not only is this cruel to him but cruel to me. I pray the courts will aid me in this problem. Grand parents are exactly what the word meand GRAND parents
656 Mary JoAtterholtVAUSWhat pain there is to be denied visitation with our only grandson with cancer. The pain also extends to the fact it is our daughters only child and we are hurt by her actions as well.
657 AnonymousAnonymousORUSI have not seen my three grandchildren in 5 yrs. My daughter has moved to away and I do not where they are or what kind of care they are getting.what can I do.

661 TinaLaginessMIUSI am the grandmother of a angle that is 2 1/2 years old. I presently am the guardian while both parents have supervised visitation due to drug abuse issues and Mental instability. After having her in my home for almost 2 years I am told according to department of human services that I will need to give her back to her parents that are not together and both having new babies by other people in 180 days. Both parents are angry at me although I had nothing to do with why they have lost custody. I fear that when I return her I will never see her again. I pray there is an angle to watch over her and hope that there neglect will not kill her

664 AnnonymoueCAUSI bet half of these grandparents really are unfit to be around the kids and probably should have never had kids to begin with...
665 VictoriaLaceyNYUSI have not seen my grand daughter in 2 months because she stays with her maternal grand mother. It is a shame that I am being punished for something that neither pertains to me or the child.
666 BeverlyThilkerNJUSI see my Grandson only when allowed by his mother. My son will not go get visitation thru the court he is scared to because he wants to be with the mother. When they fight she does not communicate at all with me so I dont really get to spend time with my grandson. I would like to see rights given to the grandparents so I dont always have to beg to see him.
667 AnonymousAnonymousPAUSWe are not permitted to see our Grandchildres as a result of our daugher in law;s insanity. Her Mother is handicapped and has a live in paramour that demands to be included in our family celebrations and never reciprocates and is extremely ignorant when we do include her, She is a user and abuser if she does not get her way.The daughter is the same and thinks she is due some entitlement as she bred a child and uses it as an instrument of torture to my son and us.We are going to deny any relatioship to any of them and leave all to charity. I feel for the child as he is displaying signs of autism due to the environment and lack of attention as it must go to the grandmother in the wheel chair
668 debbieLaFerneyMOUSI believe grandparents should have rights to their grandchildren. I also believe a foster parent should not call a parent and tell them the child is going to put up for adopation and she will work with them to get the child back if the parents signs for the foster parent to have legal guardian when it is not true. You sign and you do not get to see the child. Is it right for a system to not tell people the truth?
669 KathySnodgrassWAUSIt has been almost 1yr since I have seen my 5yo grandaughter. Again last night my other adult children went to my daughters home to try and get permission to she our my grandaughter. They were told never. Never. My daughter is out of her mind. I cannot tell you what this is doing to our family. My little grandaughter came running after the car asking where yaya was. Her name for me. It tore my kids hearts wide open. What do I do.

671 dawnknorrPAUSIf you co-parent for 2 years. why would i not have as much rights as a father. The law as it stand is not fair. We as Grandparents step in and take on at time the Mother/father roll and in the end we have no rights?? This has to change I personally will make this my life mission to have these laws turned around!
672 aprilsanabiaCAUSI love my grandchildren and had a wonderful relationship with them. Two years ago their psrents would only allow very limited visits.I so miss them and my heart breaks daily. We should have rights too.

675 AnonymousAnonymousMOAUSome grandparents on ths other hand are not welcome because they themselves are the problem ... what can we do to get rid of our grandparents... there are always two sides to a story.
676 ClereReedTXUSA child has the right to see all his blood relatives, especially grandparents. Unless they are provent to be criminals or abusive, there should be a law for grandparents. We had our granddaughter for the 1st 2 years of her life. then our daughter let the other grandparents adopt her. We tried to get visitation, and the judge was on our side, but there are no laws in Texas to help us once our daughter gave up her rights. I pray for our state and our country to wake up. These children are being denied their rights and it is totally unfair
677 FrankYoungCAUSCPS officials hide behind the "Family Privacy" when asked about issue regarding their Granchildren.

679 SharonBehnkeILUSLoving Grandparents are vital to the childs development. Grandparents supply the history of the way things should be and are much more prepared to provide that unconditional love that the parents themselves do not have the time for. I know this because my children did not have active grandparents in their life. It leaves a void in the child as an adult.

687 RussellRyboltINUSPreventing the healthful, wholesome relationship between grandparents and grandchildren, except when proven unfitness is present, is a tragedy. It is so sad for everyone concerned
688 AnonymousAnonymousKSUSMy heart has been ripped out! My daughter-in-law who we have been treated horrible by for over 10 years and has before used the Grandchildren as weapons is now doing it again! Not even allowed to talk to the 4 grandchildren. We just got back 2 weeks ago from a Disney World trip that my husband and I paid for the most of it. She had never been there and decided to make it HER trip! The kids were made to be in room most of times taking naps or bedtime at 6:00 P.M. with my husband and I taking care of them so SHE could see the park!
