Right & Wrong

Some good questions to ask yourself if you’re not sure if something is right or wrong:

What does my conscience say about it?

  Could it hurt anyone—including me?

  Is it fair?

  How would I feel if somebody did it to me?

  Have I ever been told that it's wrong?

  Deep down how do I feel about it?

  How will I feel about myself later if I do it?

  What would people I respect say about it?

If you still can't decide, talk it over with someone you trust and respect.

Refugees

A refugee is someone who has been forced to flee his or her country because of persecution, war or violence.

A refugee has a well-founded fear of persecution for reasons of race, religion, nationality, political opinion or membership in a particular social group. Most likely, they cannot return home or are afraid to do so.

War and ethnic, tribal and religious violence are leading causes of refugees fleeing their countries.

Two-thirds of all refugees worldwide come from just five countries: Syria, Afghanistan, South Sudan, Myanmar and Somalia.

Conflict

Tips for dealing with conflict:

• Conflict is a reality. There is no escaping the fact. Hiding won’t solve anything.

• You can’t wish the problem away. Keeping your feelings bottled up inside won’t work.

• Learn to deal with the problem, not the person. Conflict occurs because of a particular issue, not because of a person. Don’t make it personal.

• Be respectful. Listen to the other person.

• Be assertive. Being assertive means putting your views forward confidently and calmly.

• Learn to negotiate. This is the most important skill you need to learn. Negotiating is a skill that will serve you in the long term.

• Stick to the present. Don’t drag in past issues. Doing so will only make things worse.

• The silent treatment does not work. Talk it out.

• Be understanding. Try to put yourself in the other person’s shoes. Don’t get defensive and look at the whole situation.

• Learn to say sorry. It helps!
