A court may award visitation rights if visitation would be in the child's best interest. A court may award a grandparent the same visitation rights as a parent without custody if the grandparent's child is deceased and the grandparent has provided child support to the grandchild.
However, if your child dies, and his ex does not want you to see your grandchildren after custody is transferred to her, youâd have to file for grandparentsâ visitation under Section 3102 of the Family Code. You can also file a petition for custody if you feel your grandchildrenâs other parent is unfit to raise them.
