Sigh I've been there.
Usually it's a family member that finds out about court and puts the pressure on the Bparent to see the child.
I had a Bmom suddenly show up because she found out that FS (then 2) was calling me Mom. HE called me mom on his own, his brother called me "Ms. ____" so it wasn't like he was just copying someone. A relative told her he called me mom, she got mad and wanted a visit.
She showed up 2 times, and then no-showed 4 times before they cancelled them. He didn't know who she was, didn't interact with her or respond to her (turned to SW to show her things)... BUT those 4 visits that he was dragged down to DSS and then returned 10 minutes later because she didn't show he would act out... Not sure if he knew it was HER or he was mad becasue the SW wouldn't let him "play with the blocks" like he wanted to....
