1 State what is meant by conflict.
2 Identify situations that may result in a conflict.
3 Express how they feel when they are in a conflict.
4 Identify ways to avoid conflict.
Content Summary
A conflict is a disagreement. It happens when persons have different views or beliefs about the same issue. Conflicts may result in a struggle, fight, embarrassment, or other situations which cause hurt to self and others. Conflict may arise no matter how hard we try; it is natural. When conflicts are ignored, avoided, settled in an unsatisfactorily way or even left unsettled, people suffer great pain and disappointment. Conflict may be caused through jealousy, selfishness, name callings and others.
