Irony Be My Shield posted:Well we know from Blink that self-causative loops are fine. So if The Doctor goes back and stumbles across Adelaide's ancestors or whatever that's fine, at most he'll just "make it happen". Basically as long as you don't screw with the rules time travel to the past shouldn't change the present - anything you've done has "already happened". If the Doctor travels back in time and unknowingly meets and interacts with Adelaide's ancestors, it's fine because everything works out as it already would have. If he deliberately travels back and interacts with them to prevent her from being born, time monsters?
