I've tried to search to find a thread on this but I'm fairly new here so if anyone wants to point me in the right direction please do!
My partners sister and brother-in-law are still in touch with his DCs mother. Not just facebook friends, but they'll drive a couple of hours so the cousins can meet up. This is despite the fact we are nearer so it would be easier for them to come and meet up when the DCs are with us.
I have told my OH it's up to them if they want to meet up but he is concerned as he's spent the last 4-5 years getting the children used to the idea that their parents are no longer together and there's Daddy's family and Mummy's family.
Anyway, I guess I'd like to know what you think about this, do you think it's confusing for the children? Its affected my relationship with his sister as I feel I can't be as open about things in case it gets back to their mum but I can cope with that.
