Protecting Grandparents’ Rights In Texas

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, 5.6 million children in the United States are being raised by their grandparents. Oftentimes, the biological parents are unable to care for their children because of substance abuse, economic hardship, incarceration, domestic violence, abuse or neglect, illness, death or other issues.

If you find yourself in a position of primary caregiver for your grandchildren, you are entitled to certain rights. Depending on your circumstances, this may include:

• Child support from biological or adoptive parents
• Ability to make medical and educational decisions
• Legal guardianship
