1. The position of an outside observer.
An example of conflict in the family: the wife found her husband's complete indifference to the broken tap. She silently waits, when the husband will guess to take up instruments! Most often, waiting is delayed and an explosion occurs.
2. Open conflict.
Another unfortunate way to resolve the conflict: a quarrel with reproaches, mutual claims and grievances.
3. Stubborn silence.
This method consists in a mutual stubborn silence, when both sides are offended, but nobody discusses the problem. In this case, the couple gets a feeling of self-pity, anxiety and resentment.
