Okay here's the thing... My aunt said something to me the other day and its got me worrying


Went I had my son my ex's mum said that she was trying for a baby but now that she has a grandson... She don't need to have one.

She sees my son went she likes... And a lot of the time its every week..
She takes him out by herself and she has had him over night once or twice..

Went I drop my son off the other day my aunt said that I should pull back from her as she could be noting things I say and do. So that she can get my son to live with her.

Can she take my son from me? Even though my son's father's not on the birth certificate

Please help me

My son is 10 months old and I live at home with my parents... As I am a teen mum

Grandparent's rights vary state to state. In MO it is 8 hours during the day once a month... no over nights. The father of my child is out... but I have the best in-laws without the a$$h*le husband! Glad we didn't even have to go here! Best of luck!

Were is the babies father in all of this ?

Her rights or even that of the father does not change if he is or is not on the birth certificate.

Her rights to visit is by state law.

As for as taking the child, are there reasons that you as the mother put the child at risk, can you prove you are not taking care of the child ?

One of my rules of thumb is this:

When an OP uses the term "mum", as opposed to "mom", suspect that OP is not in the United States, but probably in the U.K.

Or typo?

ANY question on law needs to include your general locale as laws vary by area.

As Chuck said, the father not being on the birth certificate has no bearing. All he needs to do is go to court to establish paternity.

If you curtail the grandmother's time with your child you may force her into some action. Your job is to be the best parent you can be and not give her any grounds to get custody.
