[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, have you ever told them as much? Another option is to respond in a way that shuts them down. Parents: Why did you buy that POS used car? You: We're happy with our decision. What would you like for dinner? Parents: You should be buying a house at your age. You: We're happy with our decision on where we live. What would you like for dinner? Repeat..[/quote] Tried that. Never works. These are people who when they lock on something and want their way, forget it. The roof could cave in and they'd still stay on topic. Based on past experiences, they'd just accuse me of trying to change the subject. [/quote] You could say, "Mom, I'm not discussing this." She can discuss all she wants, but you don't have to just because she wants to. Good luck, OP.[/quote]
