Re: grandparents rights
Kansas law is clear that grandparents may be granted visitation. However, the grandparent must be able to show a substantial pre-existing relationship with the child.
60-1616. Parenting time; visitation orders; enforcement. (a) Parents. A parent is entitled to reasonable parenting time unless the court finds, after a hearing, that the exercise of parenting time would seriously endanger the child's physical, mental, moral or emotional health.
(b) Grandparents and stepparents. Grandparents and stepparents may be granted visitation rights.
