If the children are not spending time with their mother and are being 'warehoused' with grandparents, then it seems appropriate to return to court to modify the existing parenting plan.
Parents are completely entitled to share their custodial time with other family members who would not otherwise get to see the children. As Ms. Kock says, however, if the children are merely being warehoused every single weekend, a court may consider cutting back on the mother's custodial time.
