March 11-15 Conflict, Crisis, Communication

My family is the definition of conflict, crisis, chaos and communication. There’s always something going on! But I wouldn’t change them for the world. Crisis is a trauma, when someone is unsatisfied with their current situation, something that puts the family at risk, or instability. There are a lot of different crisis families can have. As a family you need to learn how to get through those problems together. A good way to get through those problems is through communication. The communication model that Brother Williams did is: your thoughts and feelings, you encode them in how you tell the other person, the media, the other person decodes what you said and finally their thoughts and feelings about what you said. You are always communicating something whether it is verbal or non-verbal. When you are in a conflict with someone and argue people will try to find a compromise. But this is ineffective because when people compromise both people end up feeling like they got the short end of the stick.
