[quote=Anonymous]Op, stall until you can muster 20 minutes to call and hear about the trip. Like any other relationship - parents are no different - when you've had enough, redirect the conversation. You have to be very direct and actually say that it hard "to relate" and "can we talk about something different". Or just get off the phone. No one gets to monopolize a conversation when the other party isn't (endlessly) interested. With that empowerment comes the responsibility to ignire our envy, not mention it and not make this about you.[/quote]
