Give Grandparents a Legal right to see their Grandchildren

Closed 145 signatures

What the petition asks

The Government should give grandparents a legal right to see their grandchildren, so this cannot be unreasonably prevented. I have been stopped from seeing my grandchildren, and have no legal rights to see them.
Giving grandparents a legal right to see their grandchildren should help protect them from the heartache and suffering and not understanding why they suddenly don't see their grandparents, and also protect the grandparents from the heartbreak of not being able to see their grandchildren.
