[QUOTE="Giulia, post: 527448, member: 14306"] Hello, You also wrote in your sig line that she has some NonVerbal Learning Disorder (NVLD). Maybe part of the problem about "shutting up" is that she does not catch the non verbal cue of "not the moment to speak". And her ADHD does not help either. I know you are fed up with her talking all the time, but telling her that life would be easier if she learnt to shut up sometimes is not the most helpful, either for her, either for you. I understand your being fed up, but it's absolutely not helpful. What do you think she learns after you scream to her "if you would learn to shut up sometimes, life would be easier" ? Do you think that she stays quiet longer, that she does not interrupt your conversations again ? So short relief, long grief. Do you think that you can convene her about a card which says "not the moment to talk to me" ? Or about a key sentence to get the same message ? Or if you go to an isolated room with your easy child and write a paper on the door saying "Do not disturb", like in a hotel ? I know you may not be happy to do something like that, but it will probably save you, easy child and difficult child a huge crisis. And it can help to decrease the levels of stress at home. So it may help to stop this vicious circle you are trapped into. Hang in there, you are not alone [/QUOTE]
