• GIVE UP
• Use only as a temporary “solution” to diffuse a heated situation.
• Long-term “giving up” stifles the relationship.
• WIN
• Remember that personal relationships in marriage and family are often more important than the goal itself.
• Winning an argument doesn’t always mean success in the relationship.
• GIVE IN
• While having the right motive, it fails to resolve underlying issues.
• It can set the relationship up for long-term difficulties.
• COMPROMISE
• Sometimes a good option for areas of preference.
• However, compromising at the expense of truth and right is always wrong.
• RESOLVE
• Always the best way to truly solve problems.
• Resolving conflicts strengthens and maintains a healthy, mutual relationship.

Note: There is never a right way to do a wrong thing!
