The battle to win Grandparents rights is long, hard and not often rewarding in the short term. That is not to say that it is not worth it. It is only to say that Grandparents Rights may better be seen as Grandparents privileges. Since Grandparents rights aren’t and never will be constitutional it is time for a new approach.
I advocate the approach of preemptive mindful actions that allow us a much better chance to be a part of our grandchildren’s lives going forward. I will be talking more about specifics in coming posts but I think we need to ask and answer a critical question; How much are we willing to pay to be right? I look forward to addressing this in future posts. In the mean time I congratulate you for being a Caring Grandparent. Grandpa NEIL
