Review for Advocates For Grandparent Grandchild Connection, Newport Beach, CA, USA
I was denied visitation with my grandchildren shortly after my daughter married a man who is not the father of her children. He started with threats, then the isolation of my daughter, and soon I found myself fighting to see my own flesh and blood.
