Depends on what state you live in. In VA Grandparents can have visitation rights just like a biological father, if they show they can and have cared for the child while in their care. ........................................................................................................................................ I live in Ohio and 4 yrs ago got grandparent visitation for my grandson. I had to have the mom and dad sign the papers and in doing that I didnt have to go to court which save money. I heard they changed the law since then but I am not 100% sure. Grandparents should have rights to see their grandbabies. We are an important part of their lives. Can you imagine your life without your grandparents??? I know I could not...........

Can the son's paternal grandparents take him from his mother?

How do you stop a adoption as a grandparent?
Unfortunately grandparents don't have many rights when it comes to adoption. I think an appeal of sorts can be put in, but I don't think there's much a grandparent can do to prevent adoption.
Can one parent terminate their parental rights and the other just give legal guardianship to a grandmother?
The court decides if he is allowed to terminate his parental rights. The custodial parent can then give custody to a grandparent if they wish. Both of you would then have3 to pay child support to the grandparent. Terminating parental rights does not get you out of paying for the child.
