Please tell me if I’m wrong.
We are a blended family. 2 mine, 2 his, all loved and equal.
Both of us have ex’s who aren’t planning to vaccinate… fine, their body, their choice.
My ex is always honest about his health prior to his once a fortnight visit and has said if it comes to it he’ll get vaccinated but he’s just not ready yet. Our 2 are under 12 so can’t be vaccinated yet.
His ex is one of the ones who believes it’s all a load of garbage. She won’t even get tested because the swab will implant nano-tech and give her blood clots. She currently has quite severe symptoms that indicate Covid. She won’t get tested or treated. Their 2 are over 12 and not vaccinated, one of the kids is dead against vaccine at this stage.
She usually has a weekly visit but skipped the last one because she was unwell.
So here’s my question:
Am I wrong to suggest that until she tests negative and/or her kids are fully vaccinated that they don’t visit her…. Or if they do that I will have to take the younger ones elsewhere to protect them?

I'm not sure why you're that worried in your circumstance, the kids will be fine and you are vaccinated so what harm is covid going to do if it goes through your home? That's the point I'm at now. I don't know why we all need to upend everyone's lives and jobs for this shit any more, I used to be so paranoid but now I'm just like, we can't keep running from it. We have to live life as normal and treat covid like any other of the millions of illnesses out there that could affect us. Borders are opening up soon and we all will have no choice but to live with it.
How do I know the kids will be fine? The kids aren’t vaccinated.
Delta infects kids equally to adults. I'd say it's a very reasonable concern if she's in a state where there are lots of cases
While vaccinated adults are less likely to catch and it and more likely to get less severe symptoms, that's not a guarantee. Who in their right mind would opt for their family to get a deadly virus, what idiotic nonsense. Not even to mention I bet you'd also be one that whinges about people with a sniffle bringing it to your house or sending their kids to school.
I'm so glad i live in WA so i don't have to deal with any of this constant bullshit
I'm in WA too and it's only a matter of time before we are dealing with it. As soon as international borders open covid will be part of life just like the flu.
I meant the vaccination bullshit. Not the risk of covid in WA in general, or the borders opening. I know thats inevitable but we have a head start here and ppl are still complaining about the vaccine.
Same in Qld.
OMG! It's Covid not Ebola. How about you do some research and stop listening to MSM. Vaccinated or not you can still catch and transmit the virus.
A sterile cotton swab has blood clot causing nano tech? What kinda Jason Bourne world do some people think this is 😂😂
Having said that, yes, it's unreasonable to keep her kids away from her until they're vaccinated, especially if I read correctly that the kids are over 12 and against/unwilling to be vaccinated.
Same deal with the covid test, you can't force someone to do the right thing.
However, I do feel it's reasonable to request that the kids don't visit just until she's clear of any symptoms and I feel like that's a fair ask in relation to any contagious illness, not just covid like ones.
It’s not about catching it as much as the consequences- lockdown, off work, loss of income.
Yes I would be requesting a negative test but be prepared she’s probably also afraid of testing positive
The state of emergency for covid management completely supports you not sending kids there if she's unwell with covid symptoms and hasn't been tested to rule it out. Police would back you too.
Yes you are wrong to demand those things of her. Completely out of line. Once she has no symptoms there should be no issues with her having her own children, you have no right to withhold the children at all beyond this and no court will back you.
Her vaccine status or the kids is none of your business. If the kids don’t want it, support their choice! If she’s sick, yeah sure, keeps the kids with you until she’s better! Keep the vaccine bull crap out of it.
I would not send them till she is better, she won't be up to caring for or spending any time with them anyway. I think this is very reasonable in this situation.
You are not wrong and if she has covid, hopefully it’s a hard lesson that will teach her to get vaccinated!
