This repetitious babbling can go on for hours sometimes. When asked to stop, he can and does. When he is focused on the newspaper or a video game, it stops. He has a hearing deficit, is legally blind and an amputee who is in his late 80s.
I have to leave the room to concentrate on any necessary tasks.
Any ideas?
Good luck!
