This week's stories: Grandparents Apart
Agony aunt and grandparent Virginia Ironside meets the grandparents fighting
for access to their grandchildren. Margaret's son was killed in 1998 and
since then her daughter in law has refused to let her see her grandson and granddaughter.
Pam Wilson who runs The Grandparents Action Group explains why she believes
grandparents deserve more rights of contact. If you are affected by some
of the issues raised by this programme, Parentline Plus offers a free leaflet
'Grandparents in Stepfamilies' which you can view on their web site.
Grandparents can also receive help from The Grandparents Action Group - contact
Pam Wilson. The helpline can be reached on 01952 582621. Something
