#163 - The First, Best Response To Any Conflict

p163.NotMakingWorse.NOLOGO.jpeg

There’s a principle in medicine to “First, do no harm.” This wisdom is surprisingly relevant to all relationships, particularly in a family setting. However, if you’re like us, sometimes our actions do, in fact, make things worse.

Why does this happen? How can we do better? That’s today’s discussion!

Talk about this:

We have all "made things worse" before - think about some specific examples for you.

Consider a current conflict and list out responses that could make things worse (and think about how likely you are to respond that way).

Brainstorm ways you can respond in a healthy way!
