Going against court order

My children have a court order whereby they have to see their paternal grandparents.

They have been made increasingly uncomfortable by the grandmother talking about her numerous miscarriages and the American school massacres. They told me when she did this and I told our intermediary (their son) and it stopped.

I’ve recently found out that my younger son has a severe grass allergy and lesser tree allergy and it’s triggering asthma. They were told this and took them to a national park after giving the kids 2 options both of which were parks. I wasn’t consulted except to say that they were going outside. My children told me by messaging me and I told them that they couldn’t take them there and that I would stop access if they did. I have never stopped them going anywhere else. This triggered a 20 minute session of bad nothing me to the children. The children told me about what happened. The grandparents are denying it. I have proven the grandparents to be liars on many occasions but calling my kids liars has now crossed a line.

I’ve over this and the children don’t want to see them now. I showed them the email they sent me (7 pages) and the children said they are lying. My kids are 13 and nearly 12 (in March). Can we stop without going to court? I don’t have the money to go.

If it ends up in court, it’s unlikely the court will insist on contact at this age.
