Did you know?
Did you know that effective communication involves not only what we say, but also how we say it? When responding to someone who is being rude, it's important to remain calm and assertive. Instead of further escalating the situation, try offering empathy and understanding. For example, you could say something like: "I understand that you might not have realized this was a vent, but it's important to consider the tone of our words. Asking if someone is alright is always a kind gesture, but perhaps it would be more appropriate to approach it in a more gentle manner. How can I help?" Remember, choosing kindness and empathy in our interactions can make a big difference in maintaining healthy relationships.
