I liked this recent thread and it may be helpful to you: https://bpdfamily.com/message_board/index.php?topic=310171.0

It sounds like we all have different approaches to silent treatment.  Mine is to treat him like normal until he snaps out of it or melts down because I'm not responding in the way he wants.  Doesn't work for everyone, however.
