To change password

Ex-DH and I get on very well. He is an excellent and committed father and we are more friends than anything else. But this has really irritated me...

I pay for a Disney+ account for our (mine and the kids) home. About 6 months ago he asked me for the password so that our kids could watch it at his house. I immediately (and happily) gave it over as why should he pay for something the kids already have. Anyway over the Christmas period it has become clear that he has given the password to his current girlfriend for her kids to be able to watch Disney+ when they are at their own house (not ex-DH home).

I am not so petty as to have any issue with all the kids watching it together or for her kids to watch it at his house when ours aren’t there but AIBU to not want him to just hand the password out? Especially without asking me. Would it BU to change the password on the account so that they can’t use it? I don’t want to be petty (or passive aggressive) but this does irritate me.

(Just so I don’t drip feed I like the the new girlfriend, we have had dinner together as two families when restrictions were lower, and they don’t have much money so I don’t think they could afford Disney+ themselves. I would probably have said ok if he has asked me to give her the password but the fact he has just handed it out without asking that grates. Also it is a password I use for other accounts too)

Tell him you have to change it as you’ve got to review all your passwords and that you’d rather he didn’t pass it on again. It’s only a few quid but it’s your few quid and if he wants gf kids to have disney, he can buy it for them.

Yanbu but you'll effectively be taking it away from your own kids when they go to their dad's house so you'll need to address that with him directly.

If it's a password you use for other accounts then I'd change it but give him it again. It would have been better if he'd asked but tbh life is too short, I wouldn't sour what sounds like good relations over this.
