Ha ha, I think nobody up to now has understood your question in the right way (excuse me if I'm wrong :)). I assume you meant something like: "don't go on with the subject you/we are speaking about".
You could say:
"Laisse tomber"; for example, because the topic is not important or interesting.
It's a bit like "Forget it".
or
"Restons-en là"; in this case, in most situations, you ask for not to go on with the topic because you're getting angry...
There are other expressions with a similar meaning as for example:
"Changeons de sujet" (Let's change the topic) or simply: "Arrête, s'il te plait" (Please, stop it), but this last is rather agressive, as you can guess.
