Lockdown help!

[Aliceindarkland]

My boys only see their Dad at my house as they will not go to his. It is not regularly and if he comes in, it may only be for 5 minutes at a time. They do not hug or kiss and we all socially distance (he usually wears a mask). I am in a long-distance relationship with a new partner but now he is saying we cannot be in a support bubble together as my ex-husband has been in my house and only one adult is allowed in my house during lockdown! Can anyone advise? I’m already really struggling as both my boys have special needs, I am still working full time in school and am feeling depressed myself!!!

Your partner can be in a support bubble with you. Your ex is coming round to see his own kids for the odd 5 mins to make sure they are ok. Maybe moving forward you could encourage your children to maybe go to their dads or a local park if that makes your new partner feel better. Be a bit different if u had a friend coming round and then your partner as then i would understand his concerns

You have taken too much upon yourself. You worry about the child, and your partner should understand that. You have taken all the precautions, all you have to do is talk to your ex-husband.

Nobody comes to visit us, because everyone works, and almost everyone has someone who is sick. We understand that health is more important.
