Re: does "just ignore it" work for most people?

People expect you to just slink off because it's apparently in bad taste to confront people because it's 'making a scene' or whatever

yeah, that's pretty much what my parents say/think

but then, I'm pretty conflict-tolerant (? for lack of a better term) and I'd always rather confront something than let it fester. Pretty much everyone in my family (with the probable exception of my brother) is to some degree more conflict-avoidant than me.

I wish I could give some sort of solid advice. My parents were pretty much the same when it came to each other, and also thought that anyone having a differing opinion from one of them was just making things difficult, so obviously they were thrilled with two kids running about.

The thing I could advise in this situation wouldn't be to ignore it as in, pretending that things were completely all right and that all was fine and dandy, but to remove yourself from the situation and to not engage, and then be distant and removed towards her until she apologized or stopped doing it. That way you aren't saying that it's all right, and showing that there are consequences, but you won't have to git shit about 'starting shit'. You might get accused of holding a grudge, but honestly there's no way to win in such a situation.
