Legal Question in Family Law in Washington
Grandparents visitation
My ex-husband will not allow our two children to talk or be around their grandparents anymore. He chooses not to allow them just because he wants nothing to do with his father or mother. There isn't a issue about their safety or well-being when they are with them, the main issue is that he can't get along with them. Our two children did live with them for a short period of time when we got divorced, they've grown very fond of them. They have become their safety line. Is there a way to have visitation set up so that they can see them? I allow the children to be with the grandparents when they are with me, how can I get my ex-husband to allow them to see them? How hard is it to have a court approve them of visitaion rights? Can I be of help to them in any way?

Re: Grandparents visitation
Grandparents do not have a right to visitation in Washington. It is purely up to the parents how to handle such a situation. There can be an exception to this, such as if both you and your husband were declared unfit to parent, however, that is not the case here.
