Leave this conversation

[iTurbo]

OK, things aren't exactly great between some members of my family.

I've tried to extricate myself from the text battle but the "Leave this conversation" option is greyed out.

Why?

If Leave This Conversation Is Grayed Out
If Leave this Conversation is grayed out on your iPhone, there are only three participants in the iMessage conversation, and you can’t convert a three-person iMessage conversation to an iMessage between two people.

Thank you. Now I have to find a 4th person to allow me to escape.

eh I feel liked I'm being punched in the ear with a sharp stick. Thanks a lot Apple.

You can set the conversation to Do Not Disturb so that you aren't notified of new messages and just basically avoid reading it, perhaps even deleting it every once in a while if new messages come in.

Did and done. Thanks.

Uh, just delete the entire conversation? It's not like the world will end.

I don't think that stops new messages from coming in creating the conversation anew again.

I'm still missing something. Don't read the messages. It's not like anything person (A) does can stop person (B) from sending them a text message, other than blocking the contact.

Seems like the idea is not to be bothered by that particular conversation.
