They practice manners at home, too. Please' and thank you' are as important there as they are at work or school. Without fail when we talk about strong families someone asks if they ever argue. They are real people in a real world. It is not the lack of conflict that sets them apart.
Current Events -Strong families air grievances while they are current.
They don't hoard complaints to use as weapons. Sometimes, though, they do have to wait until they have time to calm down a bit. One Issue at a Time -A benefit of dealing with problems as they arise is that families are more apt to be dealing with one problem at a time. Five problems at once are overwhelming. Be Specific - Members of strong families have a greater track record of successes in solving problems, because a specific complaint is easier to treat.
