2Conflict in families

Family conflicts are as varied as the people involved in them. The turmoil can result from
a workaholic husband whose wife feels lonely and resentful toward him (and the job that takes him
away from her), or children who are a source of continual family conflict and aggravation due to the
parents lack of consistent parenting skills, or blended families in which an unaccepted step parent or
interfering in-laws are the sources of family conflict. In other homes, couples and families are torn
apart by verbal, emotional, or physical abuse.

If you find yourself in family conflict, be encouraged that there is hope for your situation, whether you
are the problem, or someone else is causing the conflict in your home.

4Conflict resulotion
Conflict resolution, otherwise known as Reconciliation, is conceptualized as the methods and
processes involved in facilitating the peaceful ending of conflict and retribution. Often, committed
group members attempt to resolve group conflicts by actively communicating information about their
conflicting motives or ideologies to the rest of the group (e.g., intentions; reasons for holding certain
beliefs), and by engaging in collective negotiation.

Dimensions of resolution, typically parallel the
dimensions of conflict in the way the conflict is processed. Cognitive resolution is the way disputants
understand and view the conflict, with beliefs and perspectives and understandings and attitudes.
Emotional resolution is in the way disputants feel about a conflict, the emotional energy. Behavioral
resolution is how one thinks the disputants act,their behavior.

Ultimately, a wide range of methods
and procedures for addressing conflict exist, including but not limited
to, negotiation, mediation, diplomacy, and creative peacebuilding.
