Interrupting is poor conversation skills
What’s Behind the Need to Interrupt?
When someone interrupts us, we feel annoyed primarily, but also disrespected. Regardless of what we’re talking about or who does the dirty deed, being interrupted sends the message that our words carry less weight than the interrupters’. And that’s partly true, at least in the interrupters’ opinions. Think of the times you’ve stopped someone mid-sentence. You... thought something was so crucial to the conversation that it had to be voiced immediately—that your point was more important, or so important that you didn’t want to risk it not being heard.
Constantly talking over someone to jam in your point is considered bad manners and many times will shut a conversation down. If you want to learn more try waiting your turn.
My dad used to say that my mother would have interrupted the Sermon On The Mount. That is not too far from the truth.
