 I went through this with my first son's family. It took awhile for me to let go of control, but I did it. They had to earn my trust and they did. I put down boundaries for them. = If you tell my son something - stand by your word so he doesn't get hurt. In your case, another boundary would be to keep her away from her father for obvious reasons. Start out with short outings to their house without you of course. Let her build her own relationship with them. Also ask them not to bad mouth you and your choices about all of this in front of your daughter. If they are a pretty together family, I am sure things will be fine. Now if they are all trashy people with alcohol issues and no common sense and no cares in the world, then I say keep them away from her or allow them to visit at your house. I don't know them or know their surroundings, only you do. Is it safe? Some families are off the wall and some just have a few that make them look bad. So look at it from the outside and inside and decide if you would trust your piece of gold at their home, at their family functions, in their car, and around their family friends.
You will know what to do.
