Grandmom gone nuts.
What is the name of your state? NJ
I am having a problem with my soon-to-be-mother-in-law. My fiancée and I are happily together with our 8 month old son. We have never denied our son to see anyone in the family but she seems to be having a problem. She lives in PA and we have only spoken to her a few times since our son was born. She is always welcome to come visit but we haven't heard much from her. She just sent an email asking for us to come to a picnic and then threatened if we don't bring our son or if we can't make it she will pursue an attorney for Grandparents Rights. As a child and teen my fiancée has had problems with her abuse and craziness. She had always gone out of her way to make trouble for him and now she is starting with our family. What rights, if any, does she have? Also, what rights do I have as a parent?
Thank you.

I don't think she has any rights, I might be wrong and am not an attorney and don't live in your state so you might want to consult an atty. I would be very careful of depriving your son of his relationship with his gr mother. It's a special relationship ! A family counselor, psychologist might give you give you some good ideas to make the situation better. Good luck.

As a parant you have every right not to have your baby around people who you do not want the baby to be around. After a threat like that and other past experiances I would not even want to contact her at all and leave her out of the picture altogether.

I disagree,
If the child does not even know the grandmother, how then can a baby miss out on something that he does not even know?
Believe me, this is from experience. In some cases, the child is better off without.

In some states, grandparents have rights to visitation... however her right to see him (if she indeed has that right) does not-and will not ever-supersede your right to decide when and where to travel with your child. If you have a standing offer for her to visit you, and she hasn't taken it upon herself to make the trip, that's her problem.
