[quote=Anonymous]To elaborate, if you say something to which she responds with some low probability catastrophic event as a way of negating you, you have to be blunt: "Honey you are too intelligent to not understand the odds of that happening are so remote that it is illogical to give that possibility so much weight in formulating your opinion. Therefore I have to conclude that this is about your compulsive desire to negate me. I will not permit this anymore. In the future when I express my opinion about something that is my opinion. You can like it or not. I am expressing it to you. I am not inviting s debate." It's very simple actually. Every time she tries to absurdly contradict you, you have to focus on what she is doing, because there is a core reason for it. If she says "But I am allowed to have my [invariably extremely negative and often bizarre] opinions too aren't I???". You say "Of course you are. But I will not permit you to try to invalidate everything I say and waste time with your ridiculously unlikely scenarios" The only way to win her game is not to play.[/quote]
