Granny banned from sweet (candy) handouts

A grandmother has been banned from giving sweets to her grandchildren after a court heard they had suffered dental problems.

The grandmother, known as EM, launched a legal battle against her own daughter over access to the four children.



Perth Sheriff Court was told EM would often bring two carrier bags of sweets with her on visits.

Sheriff Daniel Kelly QC granted the grandmother one visit a month on the condition she did not give them sweets.
