M. Kat- I faced a similar problem- we weren't married, but co-habitating, and her family got a lot of infomation that I considered inappropriate, negitive, as well as 'just none of thier bussiness'. The real root stemmed from the fact that my family and I are quite distant (I would not go so far as to say estranged [is Estranged the bald M. or the girl?], but close), while she is very close to her large family. Her family is as benign as I could hope for, and I am quite fond of them, both indiviually and as a group, but it was a serious issue. Componuded by that was the fact that I normally stay compleatly away from controlling a slaves communication with anyone, But in this case, I had to lay down some law. It is compleatly within your rights to limit the sort of information he may share with his family, you must be able to sit down and define it clearly. In my case, it was to put my health, job, and our relationship down as 'Fine' and no more could be discussed with out prior clearance. This is a tough issue, and is a relationship issue- Not a BDSM issue. Good luck- Stay warm, Lawrence
