Depending on prior circumstances -- they have to give the parents ample time to get themselves back on track (counseling, parenting classes, anger management, etc.). Maybe the parents will allow custody to be transferred if they really don't want to care for the child. Either way the grandparents should gain as much info from the foster care agency on the processes they follow and give them their vitals in case the kids need anything. See how things go and then seek legal counsel on custody if that is feasible.
