Can anyone advise me. My son has an eighteen month old daughter whom we all love dearly. Her mother has caused may problems for him by frequently going to the authorities say he is harrassing her this has now meant he is not allowed to go to her home to collect his daughter for visits nor can he go to walk the dog which is his. He does have some issues but they are not together and worry that his daughter will grow up without his presence in her life. Also despite not working she insists on fifty pounds weekly for the childs care which I am having to pay. She is a caucasian girl and my son is mixed race and feels he cannot win because he has in the past been in trouble with the authorities for bad behaviour. I am at a loss as I dont want to upset her but do want to see my granddaughter any ideas anyone I am happy to go the legal route.
Hi Cookev, this is such a difficult situation for a grandparent to be in as it is not their responsibility to pick up the pieces for their children, but it is the natural reaction of a parent to help/fix the situation. Also I certainly don't believe it is for you to be paying £50 out of your pocket.
Unfortunately we are only funded to provide support to parents with the majority care of their children, however may I suggest that you visit dad.info, where you can get more information for fathers in your sons position and maybe even a little support for you too.
I wish you the best of luck and please remember the only way your son will step up is when he has learnt from his own mistakes, so you can guide him, but he has to do the work himself.
Can I also say that even if you can't see your grand daughter, send her birthday cards and Christmas cards every year without fail, because, as you know, 18 years travels fast and before you know it she will be an independant person and regardless of what her mother says, she will have a connection with you because you remembered her birthday. (Speaking from experience)
I think you have every right to a normal relationship with your grand-daughter. Don't wait.

Kind regards
Hi nongenderbias9 and welcome along to One Space.
Do you have grandchildren? How about your children do you have a boy or girl?
Hi there emilia2009, how are you doing? I remember that your new boyfriend was using your profile, perhaps he would like to create his own profile and we could talk to him separately. If this is you though, how are you doing and what is going on?
