If you don't want to start a discussion now, don't bring up arguments,
and especially not emotional arguments.

It saddens me that you are unable or unwilling to recognize our concerns.

You have been offered several solutions to resolve your dilemma. One of
which you actually can take care of yourself, by registering the
children as being accompanied by you and taking the same responsibility
for them as you would for your own children.
