[quote=Anonymous]At this point it's time to start obfuscating... unplug the phone cord. "It's broken, we'll call to fix it soon" kind of thing. It feels very very weird and bad to lie to your parent all the time but that's what's called for now. It's sad and hard, but it's necessary to keep him safe and you sane. The caregivers have to be in on it and see what works. Redirection is very helpful as well. [/quote]
