Not usually no. The reason why is that when any change in custody or modification to custody is proposed that would significantly impact the child's life (and a change in custody is considered just that), the court investigates as they must determine whether such a change or modification would be in the best interests of the child and whether or not the grandparent would be a suitable guardian. CPS is their arm to do so. Just thinking about it makes me shudder.

To protect your rights and your future rights to your children, I would strongly suggest you proceed only with the assistance of an attorney. There may be ways around directly involving CPS in a custody transfer or guardianship or he/she can inform you of the best way to proceed and prepare if it cannot be avoided.

How do you regain primary custody after giving temporary custody to the grandparents?

If it was the court that awarded the grandparents temporary custody there must have been a reason. If the court considered you not to be a "fit" parent at the time you may have to offer convincing evidence that you are NOW a fit parent. File a motion with the court to regain custody of the child(ren). If the custody was ruled only 'temporary' the court realizes that it is not necessarily permanent situation.Generally when a person says they gave temporary custody to grandparents they actually mean to say they consented to the appointment of the grandparents as temporary guardians. The appointment is then made by the court. In that case the parties must return to court to terminate the guardianship order and the court will hear testimony to make certain the change is in the best interest of the child.
