| Summary: | Family situations are viewed as a starting place to have harmony and peace in
life. Love and care are much needed by' children from the parents.
Nevertheless, we cannot avoid from having conflicts, which may occur due to
certain circumstances of dissatisfactions among the members of the family.
This situation may be worse if parents ignore or do not solve the problems.
Consequently, children will be victims of family conflicts. They might choose to
escape or confront the conflicts by any means, especially from peers.
Therefore, this paper views negotiation skills as one of the possible techniques
to solve family conflicts. Negotiation involves communicating with family
members, exchanging opinions while fulfilling everyone's need without losing
anything. As to study this situation, an empirical research had been done on
400 students (teenagers) which were selected randomly from four states in
Malaysia which are categorized into two; rural and urban areas. This study will
identify the perception of youth towards family conflicts, the perception of youths
toward parents' negotiation skills and the reception of youths toward the
negotiations process. These findings are hoped to provide guidelines and
approaches in solving family conflicts. |
