In some states and under some circumstances. But if you don't get along with your daughter, then your daughter almost certainly has the absolute right to prevent you from ever having access to the child. In the states that permit grandparents to sue for visitation - it is usually required that the grandparent already had a relationship with the child (that the parent has now tried to prevent) or that the grandparent's child has died and the widow/widower is refusing to let the grandparents see the child.
But regardless, you would be required to show that it would be in the best interests of the child to have visitation with you . . .
And if you would be a disruptive and negative influence in the family life of the child, then you have no hope of winning. If you want to be a grandmother, you had better recognize that your daughter is the gatekeeper. Be nice to her or you won't know her child.
Yes, you can. The same thing happened to my Aunt and she got a lawyer and went to court and got awarded weekly visits. I don't know if you'll have the same outcome but I'd definitely get a lawyer.
Yes, grandparents are usually more stable and less hot headed than the parents.
Well usually that is not spelled out but it is understood that when the respective divorcees have custody then it is their responsibility to let the grandparents see them or babysit them. If you don't have a relationship with your kid but still want to see your grandkids then you have to get a lawyer and file for those rights.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
