Talking about things that might occur helps us make decisions in advance. Hopefully, when the time comes to make a similar decision, we will have thought it through and will choose wisely.
Preventing a problem is usually easier, and more desirable, than trying to solve the problem.
There are several ways we can help prevent problems:
Use a kind tone of voice when speaking.
Communicate our feelings and let people know how they can help us.
Avoid sarcastic humor and eliminate criticism.
Try to sense how a family member is feeling and carefully speak or act in a way that will help him.
Keep an open mind and consider the ideas and suggestions of others. Don’t be defensive.
Give one another high, positive expectations for behavior.
Think through and discuss possible problem situations before they happen.
