Grandparent Denied Contact with Grandchildren

I am a grandparent denied contact with my grandchildren by their own mother, my daughter through no fault of my own, but through the vindictiveness of my daughter and the abusive application of the law.  I am my grandchildren's only living biological grandmother and I live close by only 10 minutes away.   My grandchildren call a strange person to our family "grandma" one of my daughter's ex-boyfriend's mother when I exist!  This is harmful! How will my grandchildren feel when they learn of their deprivation of their real grandmother?  
I have never seen my grandchildren, not even a photo, so I do not even know the colour of their hair. 
My daughter a happy healthy child changed during her adolescence when she became vile, violent, a pathological liar, taking after her father, but much worse.  


I recently went through the courts and was ill-treated and abused by all parties including the family report writer a hired gun by the court, the public servants masquerading as the magistrate and the judge, and more; I had costs ordered against me when I was eligible for legal aid.  I was denied legal aid assistance by the public servants working for the entity Legal Aid. They discriminate against grandparents (like fathers) with the unlawful excuse their case has no merit or some other excuse blatantly violating the law.  Wrongfully deprived of legal aid assistance I was forced to self represent and I was the only human being, the Applicant, in the court room representing and standing for the rights of the children, my grandchildren. No other party was and they were all funded by Legal Aid.  This was amazing!  Shame on the public servant ICL working for Legal Aid assigned to the case by the court because of the mother's delusions and fabricated malicious allegations of abuse. The Legal Aid funded ICL disregarded the rights of the child and supported an abusive mother in violation of her duty of representing the rights of the child, my grandchildren.
  
They said, I should have known better than to bring an application before the court seeking the rights of my grandchildren, despite the Family Law Act 1975 amended 2006 endorsing the rights of the child to know and communicate with their grandparents regardless of parental objection. This was cruel, and a breach of the law, unlawful.  My grandchildren’s rights were overlooked, abused, the best interests principle, so my grandchildren and I were granted no contact, and I am their only living grandmother! This is critical, and it is occurring across the land mass known as Australia. This is abuse of the young and the elderly.
Parents who deny their own children contact with their grandparents is "Child Abuse", also Parental Abuse”. Studies indicate these children do not do as well; children need more than just their nuclear family (Professor Margaret Sims).


The practice of law on the land mass known as Australia is unethical and immoral and as applied is promoting and fostering child abuse and elder abuse. I know I experienced this first hand. I have been there in our courts for the past two years and what I have witnessed in relation to the application of the law is alarming! The Public Servants who work under the guise of Government only recently apologised to the forgotten children saying that the law had failed them. It’s failing the children now, our grandchildren, my grandchildren.
