I feel like I'm going a bit mad here. Step children are currently with their mum. She had originally said she didn't want us seeing them until we had been isolated for a while, which was fine and sensible enough.
However, they have now all developed coughs and she is panicking even though all of them seem to have very very mild symptoms by all accounts. Keeps ringing my DP and he now wants to take them instead. I told him really they should be self isolating and he's gotten really stroppy and angry at me saying 'you're stopping me from seeing my kids' etc.
I had pretty bad childhood asthma and had to be put on oxygen a good few times. Chest infections generally take me twice as long to get over than most people so I would really prefer not to get it if possible. I said I would have to go stay somewhere else and he called me a dick.
Am I missing something here? He was happy enough to talk to them through Skype etc before they were ill at their mum's suggestion??
