Mmmmm….Donuts….
Do you know what goes really well with chocolate chip waffles and Fruit Loops? Donuts!
Not really, but there are many grandparents who believe “what happens at Nana’s, stays at Nana’s.” We know one set of grandparents who have something called “BG Day,” where breakfast with grandparents consists of desserts first, followed by an actual breakfast if the kids have room in their bellies.
Grandparents have certain rights. They get to load them them up on empty calories and sugar then send them home to crash. They get to buy them gifts for the rarely recognized holiday of “Saturday.” Most importantly, they get to visit with their grandchildren.
It’s not uncommon that grandparents get caught in the cross hairs of divorce. In the most extreme circumstances, grandparents are denied visitation by their “outlaw;” however, unless there is a justifiable reason to deny a grandparent visitation, it is usually presumed that it is in the best interest of the child(ren) to foster that relationship.
As always, please let us know if you have any questions about this or any other matter.
Warm regards,
John and Faye
