[quote=Anonymous]This isn’t an extrovert vs introvert thing. By framing it this way you are ignoring that the grandparents are being rude and obnoxious. Demanding 24/7 constant interaction and then rudely scolding anyone who takes a break is not extroversion! It’s anxiety driven or narcissism or just demanding rude behavior. I’m an extrovert and this would drive me nuts too! 1. Do not encourage , enable or give power to this crap. Entertain and visit with them but if they balk when anyone goes to the bathroom or needs to do something, tell them point blank to stop it. If you scurry back over to them, they learn this works. 2. Do not worry for one second that they will be upset or offended for you calling them out on their behavior. They are being rude and obnoxious! A reoccurring pattern on this board is people wanting to find a polite, soft way to get jerks to stop being jerks. It doesn’t work this way people! [/quote]
