My grand daughter lived with me her whole life her boyfriend moved in a couple years ago they had a daughter and she lived with me for 3 years. My grand daughter passed and the boyfriend went to rehab in Pensacola FL and he took my great grandchild out of my house and relocated her to his aunts, he is trying to isolate her from my family. I want to know what I should do about this.
A:
There are several details you have not supplied:
1. Is the boyfriend the child's father?
2. Does he have any court-ordered custodial rights?
If the answers to those questions is "yes", what he is doing is probably "legal".
