[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 135859, member: 1233"] Oh, I so know how you feel. difficult child talked nonstop from about 8-9 months until he was 8. HE NEVER STOPPED, not even at night!! It was amazing, and so terribly irritating, esp the interruptions and interjections. I started with a hand signal (one my mom used on my bro and I, and the DOG! - she always said the dog did better with it than we did, LOL!). It just meant to stop talking or else. I usually had a chore for the or else, didn't make a big deal of it, just a look, the signal and if he didn't leave us alone that energy went into a chore. My mom suggested this (as she had used it for years - I STILL stop talking when she does that signal!). The tdocs always loved it. It did take a while. But after a couple of weeks of working hard on that, it did give me a break when I was really in need. I do love the duct tape. My gma wore hearing aides. If she didn't like what you said she "scratched her ear" and turned the hearing aide OFF. I want hearing aides so I can turn the kids off. The remote didn't work on them. And nobody would take them back, seems they are out of warranty. Hugs, Susie [/QUOTE]
