I know this has been done already but it's an evolving situation and looking likely we will in lockdown very soon.

My dc dad still thinks he can pick them up as normal and they can spend time at his house in the time they're off school. He seems to be viewing it as a bit of a jolly. He's still in work at the minute so he's around people more than me. Although I have still been shopping and been to work on the odd occasion.

I'm really keen to keep contact going but surely we should be limiting contact as much as possible now? He seems to think we can carry on as normal unless any of us show symptoms. I get that he wants to see them but it's hard to reason with him.

This has been done to death I know. My ex was being quite reasonable about this up until the guidelines changed and now he thinks it's acceptable to have them as normal.

My argument is that even though the guidelines have changed, it's surely not a great idea to pass kids between two houses at this point.

But because the government has back tracked he feels he is in the right.
