I was going to post that you should ignore them until they stop talking and then explain that you did not listen because they were interrupting.

Luckily I lost the post and read BigV's reply. I agree with him now
Confidence is a precious thing in a child.
Mum intimidated us into never interrupting, to the extent that I believed talking over someone was the height of ill manners. I had to learn a new way of dealing with multi-person conversations when I left school.
Exactly SG- my Mom would have practically smacked my face off the front of my head for interrupting, so that may well be why it bothers me SO much
