    Default How do you tell someone you don't respect their opinion

    I know someone that is very judgmental, throws rocks at a glass house and always waste my time with their opinion. How do I in a upfront but nice way tell them that their opinion is not wanted or accepted by me. This is a family member, so I want to make it clear that I love them and respect them but I do not respect her opinion and frankly she can keep it to herself?

    i usually say "to each their own" when i say that it often gets the person to back off. then kinda emphasize that each person is different and have different opinions and views on things.

    I only argue with people who's opinions I respect. If I don't respect someone's opinions, I just listen without comment, they aren't worth the effort.

    What is the old saying about "never argue with a fool..."
