My son and his wife divorced about three years ago, up until the time he ran out of money and took a different career approach (stopped paying child support) the girls came routinly to see us. They are ages 11 and 5, they have cousins thier same ages on our side of the family, we have had a close relationship in the past. Now the wife is remarried and "busy" everytime we ask to see the girls. We have offered to pick them up on Tuesdays to play and swim, or asked for them to go to the movies and dinner, maybe on a Sunday come go to church with us and share the afternoon playing with cousins but they are always "busy". The latest response we got to the inquiry to see the girls was, "maybe sometime in mid or late July, we are pretty busy up until that time". All we want is to see and be a part of thier lives, maybe get a tball or soccer schedule, etc. We are not asking for week long visits, even overnights, just to see the grandchildren on a regular basis.
Is it within our rights to ask?
