After reading chapter four, I had a conversation with my mom. In our conversation, we had a disagreement but, this time I handled it differently. My mom was trying to convince me to talk to one of my family members that had previously exchanged some unpleasant words with me. The words hurt me so bad that I lashed back at him calling him names. In that situation, I did not use the S-TLC method instead, I responded quickly in a negative way. After four month, I still have not had an apology from this person and I feel extremely hurt to even say a word to him. While having a conversation with my mom, I stopped, gave her a chance to state her opinion then and after taking a few seconds gave her my opinion as well. Using the S-TLC method has helped me communicate better with my mother instead of arguing about our disagreements. This is an amazing method, it really works!
