Give them time for that

Hi, there. Is the bold-face part natural here? Thanks.


A: She says you haven't talked to your kids since you moved out. Is that right?

B: Yeah. I won't disturb. They're probably busy getting to know Jim, so I thought I'd give them time for that.

A: But still. It's been almost two weeks. I really think you should call them. I'm sure they miss you.

anonymous Is the bold-face part natural here? Yes, but "I won't disturb" is not. I think you want something more like "I don't want to disturb them".
