There can be different tactics for resolving conflicts depending upon the situation. Negotiating adds another element depending upon how much "power" you hold and are willing or needing to wheel. Yes, in some situations you have to take control and act. This is best when it's necessary for your own self care.

I hope to approach the basics so that everyone can begin on the same page. If we all find that deeper chats are necessary, or that a thread of discussion would help, we can all do that in the future too!

I hope everyone will take the self inventory, even if not interested in joining the chats. It's important to know this about yourself, so that when you are conflicted, you see how you prefer to deal with it. Discussion with your own T will also help.

Thanks for your input!
