Do you recommend sending an email such as this?

"W,

As far as last night went, it was fine to talk to me about the appointment as I asked and it was obviously kid related.

But I am afraid I am going to have to ask you to refrain from speaking on any other matters such as BFF and H or anything else that is going on in your personal life.

Granted, I asked about them today out of concern for them which I really should not have since it was not kid related either.


But you set this rule that there could be no talking unless it is about the kids or financial and have shut me down in the past. But yet you keep talking to me about stuff that is not related to the kids or financial. You keep venting to me about things that are unrelated such as arguements with your mother and how you feel about your family.

I am just trying to honor the boundaries that you set."

Wait. You brought the topic up in the first place, so you broke the boundary she set, not her? Oh. Next time try saying "sorry I asked" and then drop it. And of course you should not send that letter. That's a no brainer. No words. No letters...just doing things differently. If you feel compelled about irony then be direct and say "gee w, no irony in that request..." and move along. What are you afraid of? Why walk on egg shells? Don't be angry when you say it; be amused. It is ironic.
