To keep him away from kids’ events?

Inspired by another thread. My ex boyfriend started seeing someone just after we finished. We have 2 kids together and he won’t go anywhere without his now wife. So he doesn’t come to school plays, religious events or anything. He wanted to see my son on the first day of school 2 years later but I said no because I knew he would rock up with her. Aibu to just not tell him when anything is so that he can’t bring her too? He showed up once at a sports event and brought her. I couldn’t cope seeing her and I never want to see her again.

She's his wife, you're being ridiculous

So he can never see his DC because you can't cope with seeing her ??

Your poor DC

Unless there is a huge backstory you are being spectacularly unreasonable

I think you should start putting your child first and let him attend the events even if it's with her, because it's what is best for your child. You are lucky he even does what you say

Why can't you be a grown up and deal with seeing her? He didn't have an affair presumably and it's been literal years! Time to grow up a bit.
