it depends, what your situation is, is she asking you to give her full custody?because your not being the father she wants you to be,and she don't want you to be in his life. or you've actually have custody but your in a situation (went or are) going to jail, look if the grandparent have always helped you with this child ,and know them well. and the grandparents are willing to help you out, give them custody or if its only for a little while your gonna be gone .you can also write them temporary custody.oh before i forget ask give temporay custody if your gonna want the child back . same if you were to choose the mother. if your for any reason don't understand, feel free to e-mail me
The grandparents can get access towards there grandchildren by the mother and father dies and they get them. Or the grandparents file for custody of the children
Yeah, they have several of the same rights.
She can terminate her parental rights, not yours.
Yes if the mom doesnt want the responsibilty
Need more info in order to to answer. Taken by who? For what reason? Where is the father in all this? In what part, if any, do the PATERNAL grandparents enter into this? In most states, grandparent's rights are based through the parent's rights. If a parent's rights are terminated, then the grandparent's rights are also lost. Sad, but true.
Of course not. In the United States an unwed mother has sole custody of her child until the father has established his paternity legally, in court. Then he must petition for custody and/or visitation rights. He cannot make any changes in the custody of the child via a power of attorney. The unwed mother should exercise her parental rights aggressively and not allow grandparents or the father to take control of her "rights".
No, if what is meant is, can a biological mother of a child give custodial rights to her mother without the necessity of court procedure and/or the agreement of the biological father.
Do you have a court order saying you have visitation? Are you the biological father? If so then YES. Go back to court and file for custody.
Yes, if the mother is absent or found incompetent the judge can take away her maternal rights at which point the next of kin will be asked to raise the child.
With her child, no.
I don't know where you live but where I live there is no such thing as grandparents rights.
no, the parents of the child have more rights to the child than the grandparents.
