"I like people who choose carefully the words not to say" said Alda Merini. This is the key to understanding the mistakes we make when we argue online and offline. What are the most typical missteps? Why do certain phrases get under our skin? How can we learn to listen to ourselves and others so we know when to intervene and how? Having a ready response is not magic. It’s an ability we can learn. As long as we recognise what not to say (and when not to say it).
