[quote=Anonymous] You calmly pack up your stuff, tell the kids: "hey, it's time to go" and leave. Then you call your parents and say that when they can treat you with respect the visits can restart. If they're in your own house, it's a bit trickier, but the same rule applies. You tell them they can't talk like that, and leave the room, or go out of the house, leaving them there. You don't lift a finger for them if they're mean like this. No shopping, driving them to their favorite place, ordering what they want. If they have a medical diagnosis that explains some of their cognitive dysfunction, then that's different. But just boredom and stupidity, no. Refuse to be treated like that.[/quote]
