Dear Queenie,
My daughter and her husband always want everyone to be looking at them. Some time ago at the funeral of a relative, they made the announcement that they were expecting a baby. Then later my daughter got vexed when I suggested that a funeral was not an appropriate time to make such an announcement, and they left.
I did not hear from them again until recently when my daughter called and asked for money, and then we didn’t hear from them again. After the baby was born another family member told us about it, but we still didn’t hear from our grandchild’s parents.
Queenie, is there any way we can get to see our grandchild?—Unhappy grandma
Dear Grandma,
If the place where you live has laws about grandparents’ rights, you may have a chance. If you live in St. Maarten or one of the other Dutch islands, check with the Court of Guardianship.
