[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Set boundaries: Control your space and time. And there's always Caller ID. When you visit them, you stay in a hotel. You do not enter into plans where you couldn't excuse yourself and leave. You return phone call if/when you want. If topics are discussed that (you have no control over anyway) and are unpleasant - you get off the phone. You don't invite visitors to overnight at your home. You don't answer the door to unannounced visitors. You meet them elsewhere. It's easier to excuse yourself and leave a neutral location than, if in your house, to show someone the door. [/b]By removing yourself from drama you will also have to accept that you will be out-of-the-loop. It's the trade off, but well worth it. [/quote][b] I am noticing that things are this way with my dad's side of the family. I only talk to him and my grandmother. His sisters seem to thrive on drama[/quote]
