When Grandparents have to fight their own children for
custody of grandchildren or great-grandchildren they must actually deal
with and entirely different set of stressors and pain than when a parents fight
each other.
You may actually find yourself ganged-up-on my your child
and a spouse they accused of everything from physical abuse to selling
drugs.
Any real or imagined grievances or misdeeds from your
children's childhood will be brought up in order to assault or accuse you.
It is more common than ever for
grandparents to
get residential custody with
the incident of hard economic times and drugs.
Often this is complicated by the fact that they are
also caring for their own parents. At a time in their life when they had hoped
to be putting their feet up and taking ocean cruises they are changing baby
diapers and going to parent teacher meetings.
There is very little consideration or legislation to
help grandparents who are rescuing children from drug, alcohol, dangerous
neglect, and physical, sexual and mental abuse.
More often than not children are dropped off at
grandparents without notice or supplies. Parents disappear for days, weeks,
months and years only to yank a child from a safe loving environment on a whim
or advice from someone unaware of what the children have been through.
It's not right. It can be fixed.
It is one the hardest things in the world. But,
sometimes you have to fight your own children to save your grandchildren.
Eventually it becomes time to stop giving more chances, bailing them out and
letting them destroy the lives of your grandchildren.
We have the tools you need to document the kind of
lives your grandchildren lived before they came to you and just why the
grandchildren need to be protected.
