Causes of conflicts

Conflicts happen because people are different: they want different things, they have different ideas and their values are different

Conflicts happen because they don't listen to each other well

Peaceful resolution

We should understand that other people also have the right to be different from us. We must respect the right of other people to have ideas that differ from our ideas. People who respect each other's ideas can resolve conflicts in a peaceful way. If people resolve conflicts peacefully, they will have better relations in the future.

Example of family conflict - You promised to give me a mobile phone for

my birthday, didn't you? And you are always putting it off. Everybody in my class has one except me. Aren't I good enough?

- Of course you're good enough. And I did promise to give you a mobile phone, but you know what's happened. We just can't afford it because of your brother's illness. I had to use almost all of our money for the medicine. Without that money, he won't get over his illness. Son, can't you forget about yourself? After all, a mobile phone is something you could do without — at least for some time.

Advice on what people should do if they have a

conflict
