I have tried to look at the stop sign from the perspective of the recipient. This includes using it at home. If you have a point to make and to me it sounds imagined or ridiculous (or whatever) and I give you the stop sign or simply dismiss your point. What is your response? Most would only become more upset for not allowing you to express your point of view or concern.

A simple acknowledgement can be much moer effective than a stop sign. A signal that basically says "shut up, don't talk back to me."

If it becomes bad enough, give them their warning, everyone will understand that as well.
