Visits for the Mourning Period After a Husband's Death

Question
Is it permissible for a woman in her mourning period after her husband's death to break her fast during Ramadan with her deceased husband's family for the sake of her young children? Knowing that one of her ancestors may be present with them?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: If she lives with them in one house, it is permissible, but if she leaves her house to break her fast with them, it is not permissible, and God knows best.
