When a couple divorces they must decide or let the court decide, which parent the children will live with and in most cases, there is shared custody of the children. This makes it easier for the parents both being with their children to allow the children to visit their grandparents.
When the parents of a child divorce and the grandparents have the possibility of losing their rights to see their grandchildren steps need to be taken to assure that there is an ongoing relationship between them and their grandchildren. Grandparents should be there during a divorce not only to give the parents support but also for the children.
This is important for the grandparents to have access to being with their grandchildren. There are certain cases when abuse is involved and this is especially when the grandparents should do everything in their power to be there to make sure that they have close ongoing access to their grandchildren, create a sense of security and provide a feeling of continuity.
In my new book No Greater Loss I go into great detail about how grandparents can preserve their grandparents rights and make sure they continue to have access to their grandchildren no matter what unfortunate situation occurs.
