My daughter-in-law is a chatterbox who NEVER shuts up (I'll bet she talks in her sleep). She talks a mile a minute, interrupts, talks over everyone, etc. Because she's family, I can't do much about it without alienating her, my son, etc. I've resigned myself to the fact that she is the way she is, and if I want peace in the family I'm just going to have to put up with it.

I have to laugh...she must have taken a breath long enough for your son to get engaged and marry her. Is he quiet? In later years, the rolls will reverse, I'll bet ya.

@paixmcdao I completely agree with this. I also get frustrated with people who, when I'm speaking, rather than listening to me, are thinking of the next thing THEY want to say. I can see it in their eyes.
