They could but it would be illegal. You can not keep your grand kids with you if their parent(s) want them returned. If you refuse to return them you can be arrested. If you take them without the consent of both parents you can be charged with kidnapping as well.

∙ 12y agoThe child can get some help and good advice by calling the CHILDHELP National Child Abuse Hotline at 1-800-4-A-CHILD.
Another way to get help is to try to explain what has been going on to an unrelated adult who they trust such as a teacher, doctor, neighbor or a friend's parent. If there is no one else such as the persons mentioned in that list then call the police when no one is around and tell them you are being abused and need help.

If the grandparents do not have legal permanent custody and the mother has proof she is the child's legal custodian, even if she has been absent in the child's life--yes, they can. If you believe the mother is unfit to care for the child or you have had physical custody for a long period of time with little or no contact from the mother, you can file an emergency appeal for custody with the courts. A temporary custody paper will not keep the child with you if she ever signed one as she can revoke it at anytime.
