The biological mom is no problem considering she made herself disappear extremely quick. We have not heard from the biological grandmother in months and now all of a sudden she is calling leaving threatening messages on our machine. She says she is going to force her daughter to get her parental rights back and she is going to take us to court for grandparents rights. Is any of this possible? I was under the impression that once the adoption was finalized bmom could never get her rights back and that the grandmother lost her rights also. Will the court allow the biograndmother any visitation even if a psychologist feels that it would be detrimental to my son? If anyone has any advice please respond! Thank you!
