Just wondering if I'm being unreasonable or not?is this a thing?had some family members ask me what time they were to come at before child's first day at school for photos with them? I was flabbergasted and said I'd confirm because I was like eh??

My head tells me absolutely not, it's a special family moment not for others to come along too but not sure if I'm just being precious.

I would advise keeping it as low key as possible. Don’t make a massive fuss and keep things as close to normal as you can.

if family want to see her they can come after school or at the weekend.

Never heard of this. Offer to send some photos to them instead of your child in their uniform

Grandparents? Yeah you're being precious.
