A Grandparenting Book on Custody, Kinship Care, and Adoption Policy

Jeanne Sinclair Krause frames grandparent custody as a question that can become urgent when an adult child dies or becomes incapacitated. The book centers on the lack of automatic custodial rights for grandparents and examines how children’s ages and perceived adoptability can shape custody outcomes. It also presents a critical view of state adoption-incentive payments, arguing that such funding can affect the stakes surrounding children who might otherwise remain within their extended families. The emphasis is on the vulnerabilities grandparents may face when trying to keep grandchildren connected to kin.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Grandparents concerned about potential custody of grandchildren
  • Readers interested in kinship care and family-custody issues
  • Adults examining adoption policy through a family-rights perspective

Book overview

If your adult child becomes incapacitated or dies, you do not automatically gain custody of your grandchildren. Sometimes, depending on the age of the children and whether or not they are adoptable will determine who gets custody. Hundreds of thousands of dollars in federal bonus monies are given to states each year when they exceed the number of adoptions from the previous year. Your grandchild may be needed to help reach the numbers necessary for your state to receive its bonus.
