Grandparents have no legal right to have custody over their grandchildren like parents do. Any relative have the same right to petition for custody if the parents are gone. If the parents are there they are the ones deciding where the child will live.Grandparents can have the right to petition for visitation though depending on which state they are in. That is something other relatives don't have. The laws differs on grandparents rights.

If living with the father is the best situation, then it needs to be fully proved in court.


Is Adultry grounds for divorce and custody of children in Maryland?

Yes, adultery is grounds for divorce but less likely to be a grant of custody. This is because when courts are looking to award custody they look to what is in the best interest of the child. If the adultery situation is one in which there is a questionable living situation then it would become a factor in the award of custody but it is not determinative. You also have to keep in mind that courts do try to keep the children in contact with both parents so although they may have their issues they attempt to create a situation in which parental problems do not project on the children.
