Bloody hellfire! What a question!
Fifteen years living in an old people's home (it was a family business. I'm not old yet) let me hear some great examples.
One example took place in another home. When we first bought the business, Dad used to go to gatherings of other res-home owners in order to learn more about the business. There he met the owner of another small home who had been having trouble with one old lady in particular who'd been constantly rambling about there being a tiger under her bed. After a while the poor bloke was begining to stress as the old lady had also begun to frequently claim that there was a 'man in the garden'. During one pretty bad day, the owner of the home had a sudden stroke of genius and told the old dear that 'The man in the garden had shot the tiger and gone home'!
He never heard another word about it.
