Janet,

You replied to pewter that you could file through the court for visitation rights, you can do this without a lawyer?

My son has been sent to prison for 18 months. His wife, my daughter in law, has stated she will not let me see any of my five grandchildren. Do I, as a grandparent, have any rights so that I can visit the grandchildren. She has been investigated by social services for child neglect and was found to be guilty. I am concerned about the welfare of the children, as well as the condition of the household. Please respond as soon as possible.
