....says a letter to The Times today.
Admittedly, the letter refers to a "child" in their late 20s but there can often be issues with step-children after a divorce.
It often brings into focus step parents rights and actually what are the rights and responsibilities of step-parents?
Issues of parental responsibility are often complex and of course the law on the issue is one thing, the reality of human interaction another.
And just imagine the extra complications of grandparents rights especially when there may be a total of 4 pairs of them or even more!
