To ask if daughter can go to grandparents with her father

My daughter is 6 months old now and last month I separated from her father. I am living in the family home with my daughter and he is staying with his parents until we can rearrange living arrangements and or sell the house. He comes here to visit her for a few hours (not as often as I'd expected) and keeps saying his mum doesn't want to have her over there incase of her and her husband catching the virus. We have been staying home and only going out for shopping or walks and only recently I bubbled up with my dad who is 58 and single /lives alone. He's been staying in and I've been doing his shopping once a week. So it's only me, husband, my dad that sees our dd . Am I being unreasonable to be upset that she won't let my daughter go over there for a night each weekend. I'd be happy for her to stay all weekend. It would mean I can have a break and my husbands parents will be seeing their grandbaby. They have been seeing her in their garden on Sundays if the weather is nice. Social distancing being followed. I've not always gotten along with MIL and I feel she's just being difficult so I realise how hard being a single parent is and take my husband back. My in laws are 69 and 70 and in good health.

Sell the house so he can get his own home. Not the grandparents issue.

Can we go back to the part where he verbally ripped you to shreds in front of your daughter - your day words - and how inappropriate that was?

He’s not a man that needs to be around your daughter much, if that’s how he treats you.

*your own words, that should read.
