advice on respectfully shutting down rude or manipulative comments from elderly parents oh from elderly okay so if anytime somebody's saying something that you need to shut down you can't walk on biggest things you cannot walk on eggshells and be like oh let's not say that please you know if you're trying to those kind of people will feed off of that they'll try to lean to that anymore Even more.

Instead, you need to stand exactly where you are instead of beginning your words with you. You can't talk to me that way. I don't accept that tone. You can't yell at me, I don't respond to that volume. So whenever you can, instead of beginning it with you, begin with I, magical things can happen. You can figure out how to do that with almost every single phrase.

Instead of beginning with you, beginning with I, because you can't control what they're saying. You can't control their comment, but you can control yourself, beginning with I, and then you can quickly lay a boundary on that. I don't respond to those kind of comments. That almost feels like a, again, like a way to... It's a stiff arm. I'm just taking a step back.

It is a very polite stiff arm in a way of you don't understand where you're going with this. I don't respond to those kind of comments. And if you keep saying them, this is the end of the conversation.

It doesn't exist, no, because you never know what they're, I can't control what they're going to do. Yeah, you never know what they're going to say or what the comment is or what the context is. Maybe it's probably something related to when you were a child that's triggering to you and they didn't have, maybe they didn't intend to it.

I mean, when you can ask the question, did you intend to upset me with that? Did you mean for that to upset me? Like when you can ask the question back, instead of a response, turn them into a question. So instead of like, oh, well, that hurt, that was rude. Did you mean for that to sound rude? Did you mean for that to hurt me? Did you mean for that to embarrass me?

Oh, this, I'm going to say this real quick. On my way here, when I left San Diego, the way the airport's structured is, I just wasn't paying attention, but they have two separate wings that, to where I went all the way through security in one. I was like, where's my gate?

And I keep walking and I walk out of that entire terminal and I have to go realize I have to go through security and another part of it. And I turned around and there was one of the TSA ladies. And I said, oh my gosh, I think I went through that. I got to go through this all again. And she said, well, you should have been looking at the signs. We had lots of signs.
