[quote=Anonymous]I empathize. My dad is a talker. I’ve never met someone who talks this much about everything. It’s not a normal level of chatty. My whole life I’ve avoided asking anything but need-to-know questions or he launches for an hour +. We all cope differently but we all really mind it, including my dh who is very social. Dh’s strategy is interrupt and redirect with action if necessary (like hey let’s go get ice cream) I tune it all out mentally and don’t listen and just chime in minimally. My dd will ask to be excused and to go read a book. [/quote]
