Advice for Grandparents Who Have Lost Access to Grandchildren Which Path Is Best for Regaining Contact? Repairing Relationships Considering these facts, for the vast majority of grandparents, the best solution is to repair relationships with the parents of your grandchildren. Apologize even if you dont feel that you did anything wrong. Refrain from criticism about how your grandchildren are being brought up, and do not volunteer advice unless asked. Your grandchildren are not your children. No matter how much you love them, and how much you ache to have input about their upbringing, you dont get to make those decisions. The only exception is if your grandchildren are being abused, according to the legal definition of abuse. If your grandchildren are being abused, legally you must report it, just as any individual aware of the situation must do. And you are not morally obligated to defend the abusers. Just be certain that your love for your grandchildren is not causing you to mistake loving discipline for abuse.
