Do you mind if we talk about what's going on in my life/my DD's life for a bit?" I think anyone with half a social clue will get the hint that they have been dominating the conversations and will feel bad about it. Getting them to realize it themselves is better than you saying it to them.
This. I don’t understand people who will basically write someone off before trying something simple and easy like this.
