Re: Vent thread

[meadowphoenix]

does it get worse with more targets or once he's corrected something once or twice he's done? does it get worse if you blandly acknowledge and move on or does it throw him off? does he get mad if you respond to his mistakes similarly or is he chagrined? would you feel better if you deliberately gave him something small to correct? i don't know if will change your dad's behavior, but it can be helpful mentally if you treat the interaction like a science experiment where you see what happens when you change your response. and if there are differences, it might be easier for you to redirect him.

It gets worse when there are multiple people talking. I figure the level of noise coming from multiple directions probably makes it harder for him to pick up on everything. I just try to quickly correct him in a neutral tone and move on just as quickly. Pretending like he was right to "correct" me just seems like a real bad idea, tbh. He enjoys being right and publicly humbling other people for making mistakes. I don't think that behavior should be rewarded OR enabled.

It'd also mean having to get everyone else in the conversation on board first, otherwise they're going to be confused about why I'm saying, "Oh you're right, Dad" when he was very obviously wrong.
