Can grandparents become the legal guardian for grandchildren?

No. Non-parents must file for guardianship. Generally, the court will not appoint a non-parent to joint custody with a parent. Either can file a petition for guardianship but the parents rights would have to be terminated by the court in favor of the guardianship. Therfore, the proposed guardian needs the parents' consent or they need to provide evidence to the court that the parents are unfit. You should consult with an attorney who specializes in child custody cases.No. Non-parents must file for guardianship.

If both parents sign over temporary custody to a grandparent can the parent who has physical custody terminate the guardianship and take the child back?

It depends on the State the parent and child reside in, the State the temporary legal guardianship was signed in, and weather or not a judge was involved. Usually a temporary guardianship is revocable by either of the natural parents, either by having a revocation notarized or by simply writing on their copy of the temporary guardianship form that such guardianship is being revoked with a signature and date of revocation. This is then presented to the temporary guardian and the child is turned straight over to the natural parent who now wishes guardianship returned to them. The temporary guardian can fight the issue and get the courts involved, but the vast majority of time things go the parents way in these regards. Again, it all goes back to circumstance and especially the State where this is all taking place. I would suggest googling "temporary guardianship rights", or see if you can look up the specific legal codes on guardianship in your state.
