Family fights are never pleasant. Whether you are dealing with a loud sister or a stubborn(固执的) mom or Dad, the situation can be bad.
What if it could be different? What if family fights and conflicts(冲突) could be turned into chances to become closer? What if problems could be solved with everyone walking away feeling more deeply cared for and loved?
Family fighting is, on one level, about power. Someone is telling someone else what to do. In a short moment, bad feelings can be brought out and the fight is on. You can go down that old road or you can try something different.
In any fight, you have a need to be listened to and understood. People raise their voices and shout at each other because they’re not being listened to. You want your mom or dad to listen and understand. You want your brother or sister to listen and care. But you always seem to forget that the person you’re fighting with has the same need to be listened to. So if you can put aside your need for a few minutes, the situation will change quickly. Give the other person some time to express his or her feelings, and you’ll have your turn to be listened to.
And while you are listening, you have to listen for the right information. The best way to do this in emotional(情绪激动的) situations is to pay no attention to most of the words because many people can’t express what they are feeling with the words alone, especially when they are not calm.
But if the situation starts to get out of hand, it would be wise to just calm down and leave the problem until later because many fights happen at the wrong time. The situation will die down quickly, usually in less than 30 seconds. You can either move on to problem solving or reach an agreement to work on it at a better time.
This way, everyone will feel respected and listened to, even when there is conflict, feelings will be understood and respected, and it will bring your family closer together.

I was walking around in a store. I saw a cashier (收银员) hand a little boy his money back, saying, “I’m sorry, but you don’t have enough money to buy this doll.” I walked towards him and asked him who the doll was for.
“It’s the doll that my sister wanted most for Christmas,” he said. I told him that maybe Santa Claus will bring it to her and that he shouldn’t worry. He sadly replied, “No, Santa Claus can’t bring it to her. I have to give the doll to my mom so that she can give it to my sister when she joins her.”
His eyes were so sad while saying this. “My sister has gone to be with God. Daddy says that
Mom is going to see God very soon too, so I thought that she could take the doll with her to give it to my sister.”
My heart nearly stopped. I quickly reached for my wallet and suggested that we count the money again. “Okay,” he said. “I hope that I have enough.” I added some of my money to his without letting him see and we started to count it. There was enough for the doll and even some spare money left. “Thank you, God, for giving me enough money!” the little boy said.
I left the store, feeling as if my life had been changed forever.

I remember the green coat in my fifth and sixth grades.
When I needed a new jacket, my mother asked what kind I wanted. I described something like bikers wear. She listened long. I thought she understood for sure the kind I wanted.
The next day when I got home from school, I discovered on my bed, a jacket which was not what I had expected. I went close to the jacket slowly, as if it were a stranger.
From the kitchen mother shouted that my jacket was in the wardrobe(衣柜). I rushed and pulled at the clothes in the wardrobe, hoping the jacket on the bed wasn't for me but my brother. No luck, I wanted to cry because it was so ugly and so big. But I knew I'd have to wear it a long time before I'd have a new one. I looked at the jacket, like an enemy, thinking bad things before I took off my old and small jacket.
I put the big jacket on. I stood in front of the mirror(镜子), turning right and left. I looked ugly. I threw it on my brother's bed and looked at it for a long time before I put it on and went out, smiling a "thank you" to my mom.
The next day I wore it to school. At the morning break, my best friend, Steve, looked at me for a long time. The girls turned away to whisper. The teachers looked my way and talked about how foolish I looked in my new jacket. When it was time for the whole school to get together on the playground, ______. Although they didn't say out loud, "Man, that's ugly!" I heard their talk and even laughter.
And so I went, in my jacket. So embarrassed(尴尬的), so hurt, I couldn't even do my lessons the rest of the day. I received Cs on tests.
I wore that thing for three years. All in those years no love came to me.
I blamed(指责)that jacket for those bad years. I blamed my mother for her bad taste and her cheap ways. It was a sad time for the heart. Anyway, I spent my sixth-grade year, looking forward to something good to happen to me.
And it was about that time I began to grow, still in that green ugly jacket, which had become my brother who went along wherever I went.
