Being angry and shouty and aggressive with her won't get you anywhere

You need to be calm and rational and nice

Dear Ex

It was lovely to have shoddy junior last weekend, thanks for getting him ready/packing his bag/being on time/whatever you can find to thank her for. He is a lovely boy and you are doing a great job with him.

I must admit I was a bit shocked when he came out with a cordless power drill to show me when I dropped him off!! It was a very powerful tool and he could really hurt himself with it if he got hold of it unsupervised. Could you just put my mind at rest by making sure that it's kept out of his reach? I've been pretty worried about it to be honest, those things are really dangerous if you don't know what you're doing and he's far too young.

Hope all well.

Shoddy

You will find that this gets you much further than "you stupid cow, what the FUCK were you and your cretin of a brother thinking of? Have you even got a brain cell?" Etc etc
