Your son gave up parental rights to his daughter would you still have grandparents rights?

A grandparent's "rights" to grandchildren, if any, are accessed through their own child's legal relationship with the grandchild. A parent who gives up parental rights usually does so though a legal proceeding so the child can be legally adopted. Courts rarely allow a parent to sever their responsibility to their child unless there is another adult standing by to take over all the responsibilities of being a parent to the child. Therefore, if one parent's rights are voluntarily severed the grandparents have no link to the child if the child has been legally adopted by the custodial parent's spouse. Although the grandparents may want to continue to see the child it up to the child's parents to decide if seeing the grandparents is in their best interest. Grandparents rights, if any exist, are generally determined on a case by case basis through a court action. Although it may be extremely difficult to accept in some cases a child's parents should have the right to make such decisions without outside interference. See related question link provided below.
