My ex has accused me of trying to stop our children from seeing their extended family (aunts and uncles) because I’ve asked if they can try to social distance / remain in the garden. This is what we do when we see my side of the family or friends, as I thought this was the rule! Obviously they don’t social distance from their dad, or their grandma who he lives with, but am I wrong to ask adults from other households to keep a distance?
Our children love their aunts (on dad’s side) and would love to see them, and I’d never ever try to stop that… I’d just prefer they kept a distance. The children are good about keeping a distance from my family (age 7 and nearly 5) and I think they’ll wonder why they have to keep distance from my family if their Dad’s family don’t bother.
I know everyone is different but I’m genuinely interested to know if people think I’m wrong for asking this.
