“Maturity is the ability to control anger and settle differences without violence or destruction. The mature person can face unpleasantness, frustration, discomfort and defeat without collapsing or complaining. He/she knows he cannot have everything his/her own way every time. He/she is able to defer to circumstances, to other people-and to time. He/she knows when to compromise and is not too proud to do so.” PeopleKnowsWayPersonsAbleFacesDifferencesAbilityViolenceProudCircumstancesDestructionDefeatComplainingCompromiseSettlingMaturityFrustrationMatureDiscomfortMature Person Author:Ann Landers

“From their struggles to establish dominance over each other, siblings become tougher and more resilient. From their endless rough-housing with each other, they develop speed and agility. From their verbal sparring they learn the difference between being clever and being hurtful. From the normal irritations of living together, they learn how to assert themselves, defend themselves, compromise. And sometimes, from their envy of each other's special abilities they become inspired to work harder, persist and achieve.” SometimesTogetherDifferencesAbilityStruggleAchieveSpecialHard WorkNormalHarderInspiredSpeedEnvyCleverEndlessCompromiseRoughPersistHousingSiblingWork HarderDominanceResilientRivalryHurtfulIrritationLiving TogetherBeing HurtAgilitySibling RivalryInspired To WorkSparring Author:Adele Faber
“The difference between romantic love and friendship love is that romantic love involves a lot of compromise. It is a very giving type of love. With friendship, you can be a little bit more autonomous. You are not expected to compromise, in the same way.
