PM, you did the right thing by putting your foot down. My H had an EA 10 years ago and she was very much a part of D15's life who was 5 at the time. I was suffering PPdepression at the time and wasn't able to put my foot down. This summer after the bomb I put my foot down and said EA's are not to be any part of DDs' lives. I thought H would be mad but he was understanding.
