This is something I wondered about after reading a recent news article. I would appreciate your thoughts.
Most states have enacted Grandparent Visitation Laws to ensure grandparents can visit with their grandchildren.
Should adoptees be subject to these laws also? Imagine an adoptee who is estranged from her adoptive parents (pick your own reason). Moreover, our adoptee does not want these people to be in her life or her young son's. Consequently, the boy has never met, seen pictures, or heard about them. Although the boy has no connection with them either by blood or interaction, should his mother still be made to follow the Grandparent Visitation Laws like everyone else?
This is a moral question not a legal one.
