The Latest Relationship Advice – The 3 C’s Every Family Relationship Should Have

By Christopher Hall

Relationships, especially in the home, can so easily become combative and unhealthy. How can you keep your family relationships from spiraling downward? Here are 3 C’s that every relationship must have to stay healthy and happy.

Concentration

Whenever someone in your family is telling you something, listen to what they are saying and comprehend what they are saying. This just doesn’t mean that you are listening to the words. This is more than just listening to the words. You need to concentrate on what they are saying so that you can comprehend what they are saying.

I am amazed at how many times spouses don’t concentrate on what the other is saying. In counseling, the husband and wife are sitting side by side. The wife is saying something, and the husband is not getting it. Or the husband is speaking, and the wife just doesn’t understand. It’s not that the words are not good words. The person that is listening is just not applying what is said to them.

Compassion

Be kind. Kindness is the lubricant that keeps every relationship with so many moving parts running smoothly. No relationship can exist harmoniously without kindness. It doesn’t matter if it is a marriage relationship, a parent-child relationship, an employer-employee relationship, or even thousands-of-people-on-the-highway-in-a-traffic-jam relationship. Every relationship must have kindness to survive.

Compromise

Unless you are dealing with a definite right or wrong, you should be willing to compromise. There are not that many arguments in the home over right and wrong. Most arguments come because of irritations.

For example, dinner wasn’t cooked just right or someone wants to buy a car with leather seats and the other wants the car with a navigation system. These are not right and wrong decisions – they are preferences, habits, or conveniences. Don’t argue, don’t fight – compromise. That doesn’t mean that you should always be the one to compromise, but everyone in the relationship should compromise often to keep the joy in the home.
