Q: I am in a new relationship. I also have a son from my first marriage. My ex-wife (second marriage) and I raised my son together for 6 years. We split up 2 years ago, but she is still in my son’s life and spends a few hours with him every week. My new partner is resentful of even the smallest amount of time my son spends with her and demands that I no longer allow my son to see or have anything to do with her. Should I end my son’s relationship with his former bonus mom in order to make my new partner happy? What’s good ex-etiquette?
