A: You cannot but a Court Order can. She can also complain to the local police. Good luck.
A: I'm going to guess that the "event" is something special for the child/children and after the event his family is going out for dinner, and he wants the children to join them. The short answer is that your girlfriend needs to take the lead on this issue and if she does not want the children to join their father and his family after the event, she needs to address it to him directly. I am sure that you want to be protective, but if you handle it, it could blow up and become a worse conflict.
