Personally, if it were me (and I'm not sure how all this instant messenger archive works cos I've never used it), I'd print off a log showing when you chatted and for how long, if such a thing is possible, and not give them the content, because it's none of their damn business. They've no more right to know what you talk about over the messenger than they do what you talk about lying in bed together at night. The fact you are talking with such frequency is what is important, not the content - just as the number of times you visit is what counts, not what you talk about when you do visit.

However, as I say, not an expert, and I'm not saying this is the correct thing to do - only what I'd do and the reason why.
With the new yahoo messenger you can have logs which show dates of chats and calls(voice chat).

Normal messenger activity is shown with just the dates and who you spoke with, the call history shows both dates, llength of calls/voice chats and who you spoke with.
