You can't. I have my mom living with me and believe me, she goes on and on. I tell her I don't care and it doesn't matter. She repeats the same thing over and over. I keep threatening the duct tape. That keeps her quiet for a bit.

Tell her you are doing research and the constant interruptions are pushing your reasearch way off schedule. If you do not get your research done you will not be able to get into Harvard and get your degree in astro physics which will pay you enough to buy her a private room in the best nursing home when she gets old and pees on herself. Ask her, "Do you want me to put you in any Raisin Ranch or the best?"
If that does not work Duck Tape works pretty well. Oh, you could also just hide her bottle of Scotch. If she's sober she may just be able to do for herself.
Good Luck

I guess... u need to observe and see whether is it becos she is lonely or she is drunk or she is feeling very insecure.... U can tell her in a nice way that you need to be left alone for some time and tell her to let you know all the things she wants you to do in one go rather than keep calling you. Or your mum might be just facing a crisis or menopause... ask her to go see a doctor if she is not feeling well or she is just wanting attention. If your mum still does that to you, get out of the house or lock urself in the room and patse a note on your door "Pls keep out, genius at work"... I hope this helps... worse come to worse, let ur dad know... and ask him to help your mum.

Instead of hiding in your bedroom or where ever you are... why don't you try spending some time with your mom? Maybe she enjoys your company and is trying to get you to spend some time with her. She sounds like she wants some company. Perhaps if you spent more time with her she wouldn't be yelling for you all the time. Enjoy having your mom being around while you can. I would give just about everything I own to just spend 1 more day with my mom.....

Sounds like your Mom needs to spend some quality time with you. If you do something together, that you would both enjoy, it will give you a chance to talk. Then, you can ask for some "you" time, later.
You need time to do your own thing--and your Mom should do some of this, too (with the t.v. turned off). But, it's important to talk to each other and spend time together, as well, so you understand each other better and can support each other.

It's not a matter of getting your mom to shut up it seems like a matter of getting your mom to do things for herself. Maybe she enjoys your company, maybe she just wants some of your time and since you are always in another room this is her way of interacting with you. Maybe you should give her a little quality time and maybe express how you feel about the way things are. Maybe if she knows how you feel she will change.

I think that your mom wants to spend more time with you....
Try maybe hanging out with her for like an hour or so every other day...
This may seem like a drag now (and I don't know what kind of relationship you have with your mom) but you'll miss her when she's gone.

I am sorry to tell you this, but there is no way. If anybody actually discovered how to do this they would win the Nobel Prize!
By the way, apparently at the school in HIS trailer park, miketorse never learned how to spell trailer. This may be why he thinks everybody else lives in a trailer, since he probably has never left the trailer park he lives in.

Start with respecting your mother. You would have had a problem if she had thought that way every time you cried for a bottle or needed your diaper changed or needed to be fed or needed a bath or wanted a toy or wanted money or clothes or shoes etc. etc. get the picture?
