Conflict management in O’Hair.

1. (a) Conflicts mainly occur in relationships because of goals that are incompatible, having unrealistic expectations of the other party, the rate of relational growth differs and having inaccurate attributions and perceptions of life occurrences. Conflict is often marked by heated emotions, a hot temper, shouting and uncontrollable arguing, facial expressions that depict anger, clenched fists, and sick stomach. To manage conflicts, one should follow the following six phases: prelude phase that is influenced by traits and relational status, assessment of individual needs, engagement where a context for partners is created, action phase , decision phase where consensus is achieved and reflection where those in conflict think of what has just happened.

(b) O’Hair’s insight is helpful in my current love life as it helps me solve issues in an amicable way without violence. However, it is a slow process and requires a lot of patience.

2. The plot of the narrative helps explain the different aspects of life. Besides, from the camera viewpoint, excellent images have been captured and the camera movement is accurate. The audio techniques of the movie offered perfect different intonations that reveal different themes from the movie.

3. In O’Hair’s chapter Eight talks about managing conflicts. He discusses on the people that one can discuss their conflict issues and methods that can help resolve conflict. Cyber bullying and trolling are major issues affecting the society due to high technology levels.

He advocates for compromising as a key step to solve conflict issues. People will never have their ways every time if the need to keep their relationships going. This helps show you care for the other person’s feelings.

(b) From my observations in life, conflict is a major part of our day-to-day relationships. Compromise is a key part in conflict resolution. Lastly, I disagree with cyber bullying. It is rampant but still scarce in the modern society.
