You can’t make people respect your limits. You can stop rewarding them for ignoring them.

You cannot install a limit in someone else, which is the frustrating part. What you can change is what happens on your side when it gets crossed: whether the plan still goes ahead, whether the money still appears, whether you are still there at eleven. A limit nobody enforces is a preference, and people treat it like one. The lesson here is not about arguing better.

Pick one limit that keeps getting walked through and decide what you will do rather than what you will say. Then do that, without an announcement. Changed behaviour gets noticed much faster than a stated rule.
