If you want to really show your disapproval for someone, one way to do it is to give them the Silent Treatment. It's a Boring, but Practical way to show disapproval — just stop talking to the other person. No acknowledgement, no anger, no responses, no questions, nothing. While this may seem like a relief in some cases, this can be a very effective form of punishment and social isolation, especially if several people gang up on the silent treatment. A common variation is that the person being subjected to the silent treatment is relieved that they no longer have to hear the other person speak until they realize the full implications of a person not talking to them. Could lead to Tell Him I'm Not Speaking to Him. Not to be confused with The Quiet Game. If it's an Edutainment Show on something like PBS, expect an aesop about how hiding your feelings never solves anything and you need to use your words to address and solve the problem. In some situations, the silent treatment can be depicted as a cowardly option; as you are not addressing the problem or actually establishing boundaries with someone, you are actually relying on them to be fully aware of their own actions; if they're not, this becomes a Bewildering Punishment. Compare I Can't Hear You. Overlaps with Threatening to Cut Ties if a person threatens to do this to someone. Examples |

During the first inFAMOUS game, Cole gives the silent treatment to Zeke. While Cole is dealing with a city-wide epidemic, Zeke calls Cole to apologize for trying to use the Ray Sphere to gain superpowers, even though doing that would have killed thousands of people. While it didn't work, Zeke pulled a Face–Heel Turn by siding with Kessler in an attempt to gain superpowers. On top of that, thanks in part to Zeke's decision, Trish ends up dead due to one of Kessler's traps. Even though Cole picks up the phone, he doesn't say a single word during the entire call. | |

Her mother is furious with her for wanting to meet a boy, blames the "slut" Kristie's influence, and punishes her by completely ignoring her for the next day. That evening, she sets a table for one, makes Madeline's favorite dinner, and eats it herself, leaving Madeline to eat alone in her room. | |

In The Inheritance Cycle, this is a standard Dwarven punishment to some of the more heinous crimes, and we get to see it happen to Vermund of Durgrimst Az Sweldn rak Anhuin as punishment for the attempted murder of Eragon. Put simply, the dwarves pretend the offending party isn't there at all. He can rant, rave, or in any other way attempt to scream at them, but they will simply act like he doesn't even exist, and quite literally, not even give him the time of day. And when Vermund physically grabs another dwarf, a couple of guards quite calmly wrench him off and toss him away, though the nonchalance of it is described as being no different than the guards helping straighten their protectorate's chain mail. But they don't do this just to Vermund but the entire clan as punishment for endorsing him, until they change leadership.note To put it in perspective, imagine if the United States of America just decided to pretend that Texas and everyone in it didn't exist, including not the slightest care for imports and exports, or other such problems. That's basically what the condemnation was for Durgrimst Az Sweldn rak Anhuin. | |

In the remastered version, Kyril is briefly given this treatment by Alicia and her knights due to their disapproval of the Hunter being in close proximity to Prim. He finds it a tad awkward but is otherwise fine with that. |

In the Season 5 finale of RWBY Salem does this to Professor Lionheart through her Seer Grimm after the latter decides to flee Haven upon realizing Salem's side has lost against the heroes and returns to his office to gather things. It's so unnerving that he goes from trying to explain to begging for his life to trying to use his weapon on the Grimm...which knocks it out of his hand before it brutally murders him as he tries to flee. Salem only breaks the silence to call him a coward. | |

Tamara from Double Homework does this twice to the protagonist: She barely talks to him at all at the start of the story. In his mind, she’s still traumatized about the avalanche just like he is, but Tamara also has her own agenda that he’s not aware of - yet. If he ultimately breaks off his relationship with Johanna and Tamara, Tamara will not talk to him out of anger over wasting her whole summer with their relationship. She backpedals after a couple of weeks over her inability to enjoy a conversation with anyone but him. |

Harry is quite relieved when Snape uses it against him, as it means that he doesn't have to suffer anything worse. Or at least so he thinks until Malfoy knocks over his potion sample and Snape is all too happy to just leave Malfoy off the hook. | |

Arthur: Discussed in "Mom and Dad Have a Great Big Fight" when Mr. and Mrs. Read argue over literal spilt milk, then Mr. Read leaves to buy some more milk, but Arthur and D.W. mistake it as him leaving for the sake of leaving. This gives them the impression that the argument was worse than it really was and they have many daydreams, including the parents not speaking to each other and sending the kids to wish each other merry Christmas. In "So Funny I Forgot to Laugh", Arthur compares Sue Ellen to a sheepdog because of her sweater, but this offends her. He tries to apologise but gets overly defensive, accusing her of overreacting. This causes Arthur's friends to be mad at him, accusing the apology of not being "real", and they refuse to speak to him. Discussed in "Draw" when Francine's friends tell her not to make fun of Fern, and Francine replies, "Fern? That mouse? What's she gonna do, be quiet at me?". |

Steven Universe: "Mirror Gem": This is implied to be the reason why the titular Magic Mirror initially appears to be broken when Pearl asks it to show the Galaxy Warp, as the Gem powering it was tired of answering questions. It eventually warms up to Steven, though. During the Sardonyx arc, Garnet gives this to Pearl (well, at least up until the ending of "Keystone Motel"). A similar scenario happens with Steven and Connie for a few weeks during season 5's post-Homeworld arc, and it's bad enough that it takes a party hosted by their shared nemesis Kevin to get them to make up. Connie's silent treatment towards Steven was actually unintentional as she tells Steven that she wasn't actually trying to ignore him and after struggling with trying to figure out how to answer him thought it would be better if they talked about things in person. But by the time she rode Lion to Steven's house, she found that he was on vacation. For unknown reasons that are never touched on in the episode, she didn't attempt to visit him again or give him any indication that she was ready to talk afterwards, which made their reconciliation much more awkward when it happened. It's speculated that that she always intended to try again, but real-life events (school, family matters, etc) as well as her fears of what Steven would think of her for shutting him out for so long (especially after she got an Expository Hairstyle Change in the interim, which in normal circumstances would signify that the subject of such has moved on after a breakup, which is what Steven thought of her upon first seeing her at the party) got in the way. In any case, Connie apparently didn't have another chance to see Steven until learning about Kevin's party and deciding to attend in the hope of finally reuniting and talking things out with him. Steven apologizes to Connie for breaking their promise to always be a team, and they both make up. Lion also gives Steven the Silent Treatment since he was also angry at him for brushing off Connie's and everyone else's feelings on his surrender to Homeworld to avoid facing his own, and decides to stay with Connie for a few weeks (over five episodes) to teach him a hard lesson and give her comfort and companionship during that time, until Steven and Connie's reconciliation in "Kevin Party". |

Kaeloo: In Episode 105, Kaeloo gives this to Mr. Cat, covering her "ears" and yelling that she can't hear him when he tries to speak to her, until she finds out that he isn't the bad guy of the episode. In Episode 108, Kaeloo tries to give Mr. Cat the silent treatment. This time, it doesn't work because she doesn't actually want to stop talking to her best friend, and mere seconds after declaring that she will never speak to him again, she starts crying and then continues talking to him as if nothing happened. In Episode 131, Kaeloo beats Mr. Cat up, and he spends the rest of the episode refusing to talk to her or even look at her because he's still mad at her. |

The only time she addresses Willow herself is to try and hurt her. All of this is made worse by the fact that Willow had magically severed her own vocal cords in order to avoid revealing classified information, making Dawn's behavior a mockery of that. | |

Mariner's version of the truth? The Cerritos is a great ship and her mother is a great captain. It was everyone else who told the embarrassing stories, not realizing how it made the ship look, and they don't find this out until after Mariner is Reassigned to Antarctica and resigns her commission. | |

Fashion Upgrade: Though Adrien had agreed to act like Lila's friend if she got Marinette un-expelled, when Lila then gets Marinette kicked out of Ms. Bustier's class and takes her seat, he decides that Lila broke the terms of their deal. To punish her for this, he refuses to acknowledge Lila's existence unless he absolutely has to, knowing that she craves attention. | |

CONSEQUENCES: In EXPOSED, Lila attempts to expose Marinette's Secret Identity as Ladybug to the world. While the rest of the class isn't aware of the truth, they think instead that Lila was attempting to trick Hawk Moth into targeting Marinette and punish her by collectively ignoring her. Since Lila craves attention, getting ignored by people who were formerly taken in by her lies and fawning all over her drives Lila insane. | |

One of the many bullying tactics that Nanako and Mariko from Dear Brother go through is this, including an iconic scene where the Alpha Bitch and her Girl Posse begin interrupting Nanako when she's reading in class and saying "there's a bug in here!" | |

In Ben and Me, Amos refuses to talk to Ben at all after the kite-flying incident. Given how badly it affected him to stay on a kite in the middle of a thunderstorm, it's pretty understandable. | |

Peret em Heru: For the Prisoners: After being pranked by Rin one too many times, Ayuto declares that he's going to just completely ignore her existence. This proves a little too effective, as Rin gets so upset by this that she runs off — deeper into the underground ruins their tour group is exploring. Ayuto's joy at getting under her skin is short-lived, as Nei calls him out for making her run off alone in such a dangerous place. | |

In one chapter of The Hating Girl, after Asumi goes off on Ryouji for what she thinks is him publicly announcing that she's on her period, a note in the corner of the last panel states that she didn't speak to him for three days afterward. | |

In the 25th Anniversary Edition of Night Trap, if you fail to save Danny in a Deleted Scene, Lt. Simms briefly appears on the top-right corner of the CRT's screen and gives you the silent treatment as punishment by refusing to speak to you (he just has no words to describe your failure in causing the Death of a Child) before pulling a quick SCAT System Disconnect on you, resulting in a Game Over. (Probably Justified, as the filmmakers probably didn't film any scene where he chides you for failing to save Danny.) | |

Gunsmoke: "Coventry," an episode from Season 7 (the first season with hour-long episodes) features an extreme case of this. Here, a land speculator is acquitted in the murder of a feed store operator who had threatened to expose his criminal business practices. note (The judge, despite having a sense that the swindler was guilty, was forced to admit he had only circumstantial evidence and hearsay and was forced to find him not guilty.) In the aftermath, the non-repentant speculator tries to resume his business activities but finds it impossible to do so when virtually everyone in town will not only not speak to him but they literally consider him an Unperson. He can't even be served at Miss Kitty's Saloon or get service at the doctor's office. Eventually, he is forced out of town, where he eventually meets his death. | |

Interview with the Vampire (2022): "A Vile Hunger for Your Hammering Heart": After Claudia runs away from home, Louis blames Lestat for being the cause of her distress due to the latter's "sadistic" (as Louis calls it) parenting style, so one of the ways he punishes his boyfriend is by ignoring him. It has gotten so bad that a miserable Lestat, who's burning a playing card with a lighter, wonders out loud if Louis would pay any attention to him if he set himself ablaze. "Like Angels Put in Hell by God": Louis doesn't speak to Lestat for six years after suffering a vicious battering from him. |
