Both actd and I did reply to you John, this is what I said in answer to your question then...
...If you were to ask to become primary carer if something happened to their mother, it means the children should live with you, not the ex's family.
You can make the point that your children need to be allowed to develop a close relationship with you, which can't happen if you are only able to contact them indirectly.
You could also say something like,....if something happened, you would like the children to live with you but you would do everything in your power to make sure the maternal family continued to be fully involved.
....I don't think you should stress about this too much, as it hasn't happened and is unlikely.
Do as the court asks and respond to the section 7 report, you can also add a response to her statement and the end of your statement, starting with... I would like to respond briefly to xxxxxxxx statement dated xxxxxxxxx .... and then write what you would like to say, keeping it to the point.
Perhaps you should make the court aware that you will be away, giving them the dates you leave and return, you can mention it in your statement or in a letter that you can send them n with your statement.
Hope that helps.
