 you are EXACTLY right
	you are EXACTLY rightin this situation, or any other potential conflict, always remember everything can be printed off and shown to the court as evidence of un/reasonableness. emails, texts, screendumps of facebook... it all goes to paint a picture.
the best thing is to have a chain of gentle, well reasoned correspondence saying, "I don't understand why you are doing this, please can you explain, or otherwise I will have no alternative but to go back to my lawyer, but I am trying my best to avoid this for your sake, mine and micro's." and if that doesn't work, leave it to the lawyer to fuck with her lawyer. I can't believe her lawyer is going to say, "ooh yes, it was a great idea suddenly to withhold access, keep that up".
