ONFLICT
CONFLICT OFTEN OCCURSTHROUGH PARENTS:
Manypeople would have grown uphearing their parents argue, soare confronted with it from anearly age.
EVEN THE TEACHERSEXPERIENCE CONFLICT:
Even the people you look up toand see nearly everyday haveconflict with their work partnersand others they are close to.
THE BEST THING:
Resolvingconflict is a life skill, and whenyou know how to do it, it canmake your life a whole lot easierin the long run. The only hardpart is learning how to resolve it!
onflict occurs because everyone in the world is different. You arean individual and no-one in the universe will think the exact thingsthat you think or have the exact same opinions as you! However,part of being human is that we assume that we are right and we often want people to think the same as us! We can take it personally or feelthreatened when they don’t. So conflicts happen to us often, until we learnto compromise and influence each other in healthy ways.Many children in this generation grow up seeing their parents, friendsand relatives fight and not resolve it in the best way. This is not helpful, as when they grow up, they are more likely to not resolve conflict well, andneed to learn new skills of conflict resolution.Sometimes the old saying, “You should never discuss politics, religion, ormoney” can be very true. These are considered "hot topics," things thatmost people are passionate about and if you disagree it could cause anargument or dispute. Feeling very strongly about something oftenprevents people from being open to new ideas, so choose your battles wisely!Experts say that it is not only what you say but how yousay it that is important, as an aggressive tone or body language can be very threatening and cause a fight.
