Quarrel between and among siblings can be a learning moment . . .

Precisely because every person is unique so it goes that conflict is part and parcel of any social relationship. It is when the conflict becomes so hurtful and disrespectful that there is need to do something about the tension. The process alone can be a learning moment for every person involved.
This talking point also reveals the role of words that we use in every conversation we engage with anybody around us. Some of the words that we use have nuances that are very inhumane that to say it to a sibling becomes multiplied in damage. It shows that you have become doubly disrespectful and uncaring as to what the terms you attributed to the one you hurt can be misconstrued.
A particular scenario is the one that recently happened between two actresses who are siblings: the other is no longer as active as she used to be while the younger one is the one who is in the limelight. The older sibling filed a case against her younger sister for moral defamation and grave coercion. The text messages have been submitted as proof of the untoward messages hurled by the younger one to the older one. You have to read it to feel the words. Visit www.PEP.ph and analyze the text messages.
In the meantime, let us never forget that the family is our first home. You can lose everything but if you have your family, everything is still yours. Quarreling is part of family life and as we already know, even this pain can be a learning moment!
