If that is the only day that her sponsor will meet with her and it is important to her then I don't think it is that unreasonable of a request. It would be completely different in my mind if her sponsor would meet with her on other days, but she choose Saturday against your wishes. Could you get a babysitter to watch the kids on Saturday while she is gone if you need the day to yourself?
This is all correct. It *would* be completely different if her sponsor would meet with her on other days, supplement with phone calls, etc. - I would be the picture-perfect "supportive" spouse.
The babysitter I've considered. Not always a completely straightforward affair, but it's do-able. Also could drive 'em to my parents house and drop them off.
