I am a grandmother with 6 grandchildren. 3 of them lived with me until the last month.
My son and daughter in law lived with me and was being a family. Our new grandson passed away and they took all 3 of the other children. I understand why my son and daughter in law cannot see them without supervision but I do not understand why the rest of my family, my other son, daughter in law and 2 grandchildren and me cannot.
We have done nothing wrong and dhs in treating us all this way. I have been the staple in the 3 kids lives from day one. They have lived with me all but for a year of their lives.
No one will even talk to me about this and listen to my side. One of the grandchildren is still in foster home and the other two are with their real mother. She has even lived with me with the children when my son and her split up. I live for my grandchildren and I do not know what to do. I supported them and did not let them do without ever. Now I cannot even see them unless it is a dhs visit when dhs wants us to. I cannot take them anywhere or even go shopping anymore with them.
What can I do to get DHS to leave me alone and let me visit and start seeing my grandchildren again?
I know there are no grandparents rights in Oklahoma but these kids need me like I need them.
Please help.
