Divorce is hard on everyone involved, but the hurt felt by grandparents during a divorce is often overlooked. It is important to note that Utah grandparents have no rights to visitation, but they have the right to ask for visitation and to be heard in court. The grandparent’s visitation rights can never infringe on the rights of the parents to parent and raise their child. Judges ultimately base their decisions on parents’ wishes and what they believe serves the child best.
