question. do grandparents have rights to a child? my MIL thinks she has rights & wants to take my fiance & I to court…

I understand completely on what your going through my mom is a crazy b#### she tried having my husband arrested for supposedly kidnapping me but he was in a whole nother state I would put a no contact order on her so by law she cannot contact your kids and if she does she will be arrested

Yes she does! It’s called grandparents rights

@lexilease22 we told her she isn't seeing the kids anymore & she says "you can't keep them from me." shes so fricken dumb.

Just cut her off my mom was beyond crazy and I had no problem doing so. Your Mother in law won't win all she's going to achieve is digging her self a deeper hole and embarrassing herself

It's based on the state you reside in. SC doesn't have grandparents rights

Fuck no lol wtf

I’m pretty sure it’s state to state. Depends. Some states give rights. Check your state laws.

Grandparents only have rights if both parents are gone. The courts perfer to give children to family members of the parents are gone before placing them in foster care if no family members are left. Since you both are healthy and living and care for your child, she will not have rights. If you have proof that she is a violent person, then show that to a judge and they'll kick her to the curb.

I think Grandparents Rights are only legal in certain states, and that's really only for like visitation I think, the parents have to be proved unfit for the grandparents to get awarded custody

yeah she doesn’t have rights it’s not her kids haha

@denisse.m she threatened to hit me, which would lead to also hitting my unborn baby. so my fiance is putting a restraining order on her for his 6&7 yr old.

@caysensmommy, oh what grounds?? Unless you guys are putting the child in danger there is no reason to.

@yestatipa shes just dumb lmao.

what???? I never heard of this!
