Family fights are never enjoyable. Whether you are dealing with(应付)a loud sister or a mom or a dad who can’t communicate with easily, the situation can be bad.
Family fighting is, on one level, about power. Someone is telling someone else what to do. In a short moment, emotions (情绪) can be brought out and the fight is on. You can go down that old road or you can try something different.
In any fight, you have a need to be listened to and understood. People raise their voices and shout at each other because they’re not being listened to. It’s totally unconscious (无意识的). You want your mom or dad to listen and understand. You want your brother or sister to listen and care.
But you always seem to forget that the person you’re fighting with has the same need to be listened to. So if you can put aside your need for a few minutes, the situation will change quickly. Give the other person some time to express his or her feelings, and you will get your turn to be listened to.
And while you are listening, you have to listen for the right information. In emotional situations, the best way is not to pay attention to most of the words. Because many people can’t express what they are feeling with words alone, especially when they are upset.
But if the situation starts to get out of control, it would be clever to just keep quiet and leave the problem until later because many fights happen at the wrong time. The situation will die down quickly, usually in no more than 30 seconds. You can either move on to problem solving or reach an agreement to work on it at a better time.
This way, everyone will feel respected (受尊重的) and listened to, even when there is conflict(冲突). Emotions will be understood and respected, and it will bring your family closer together.
