Can someone please help me?
I am the maternal grandma. My 13-year-old grandson has resided with his father and stepmum since he was about 2 years old. I have always been in his life, albeit to the stepmum's moods et. My daughter had had access every 2nd weekend and half holidays.
18 months ago, my daughter walked away from her 3 children due to drugs. 13-year-old boy stayed with dad and stepmum, and I have his 6-year-old sister every second weeknd and half holidays (she lives with her paternal grandparents). They used to see each other, with me at these times, but now the father of my 13-year-old grandson and the stepmum have separated and he is now residing with her and she has ceased contact between my grandson, my 6 yr old granddaughter and myself, saying it is her time with him and she will not give it up.
The Father is ok with me having contact as long as she agrees. Please what are her rights to do this and having my grandson live with her? Would iI be able to apply to for guardianship as he no longer resides with his father?
These kids need to see each other.
