Dear Abby: My granddaughter kept saying I should let her talk, so I stopped speaking to her
Briefly

In the correspondence to Dear Abby, a concerned individual expresses frustration over her granddaughter's behavior during conversations, highlighting feelings of neglect and the desire for more meaningful communication. Abby suggests that the granddaughter may not intend to be unkind and encourages the grandmother to share her life lessons through writing instead of verbal lectures. Meanwhile, another letter discusses the struggles of managing severe liver disease, dieting, and family support that feels undermining. The response emphasizes the importance of maintaining personal health choices in a supportive environment.
Because you have important life lessons you want to impart, consider writing them in a journal or recording them. Since you seem to be making all the effort to see your great-grandsons, perhaps it's time to concentrate less on your children's children and put more effort into socializing with contemporaries.
It sounds like your granddaughter may be busier than you are. Conversations are supposed to be shared, not turned into lectures.
