How to react?

Very often, when you face a conflict situation at home or at school, you can be embarrassed how to respond.

Someone used to collect his/her strength in order to keep the test. The best way to react is to be loyal and respectful. If your opponent faces the conflict bravely and aims to solve it positively, do it together.

Escaping is another reaction. In some cases, escaping is the best way to slip off the conflict if the problem is not important and does not need much attention of yours. For example, your brother took your place at the dining table. It is not yet the reason for becoming hot. At least, you can take another place.

Usually, any conflict is accompanied with burst of emotions. So, in this case, it might be better to leave it for another time.

If someone changes the topic suddenly, do not be too stubborn to return to it again. Remember that somebody does not like arguing or sometimes it is better to stop instead of becoming madder. If you like to change the topic every time when you face the conflict, well, it is high time to think of your self-esteem and learn how to stand your ground.

And the last way to act in the conflict situation is lying. When you do not know what to tell, when you are afraid of punishment, when you know that your future relationships with those people depend on what you are going to tell now, you emotionally is ready to lie to end the conflict and derive benefit from it. Think of it carefully if you really need it and make your own decision.
