When it comes to Grandparents Rights there is a significant question I suggest that Grandparents ask themselves while dealing with the complexity of extended family issues. The question is; How much do you want to pay to be right?
Oh but he/she treats my child so badly.

These are just a few of the ways that lead to not being able to visit with their Grandchildren on a regular basis or worse not at all.
Tip: We would all do better to ask this question in all significant situations in all of our relationships.

Yes, ask that question in all types of situations not just parenting or grandparents rights. We pay in lots of ways with stress related life threatening illnesses, lost time at work or just not taking the time to simply meditate on what our purpose on the planet is this time around.
