Potential Reasons a Child is Cared for by a Grandparent Physical health issues or death of parent. Unstable home life, homelessness. Lack of financial resources, lack of general ability. Domestic violence in the home, divorce, other family challenges. Military deployment.
Even though it's possible, a grandparent will need to jump through many hurdles to get custody or access to his/her grandchild. For example, the grandparent must have standing, and the grandparent must show that the relief being asked for is in the child's best interest.
Parents, spouses, and minor children are almost always considered immediate family, while siblings may or may not count. Adoptive parents or children are also considered immediate family, although there is no blood relation. Half-siblings, stepsiblings, and other near relatives may be legally ambiguous.
Immediate family refers to a person's parents, siblings, spouse, child by blood, adoption or marriage, grandparents and grandchildren. There are two ways to determine if someone is an immediate family member. The first is by blood, meaning they have the same lineage.
Grandparents often ask what rights they have if the parents are denying access to their grandchildren. While a Texas court may grant visitation in certain circumstances, state law does not give grandparents an absolute right to visit their grandchildren.
