"Ignore" is a way of self-advocacy.
Honestly though it takes a LOT to make me put someone on ignore as I can generally tolerate a lot. But we all have our limits and part of our growth is learning what's good for us as well as how to deal with conflict, ambivalence, ambiguity, and just different strokes for different folks.
Self-advocay via "ignore" is okay.
... and mouse, let me know how that goes with the kids and adoptive mom... I'd like to add my job....
