Question

Christian has been fighting with his best friend, Pedro, ever since they started high school. Pedro’s personality seems to have changed and Christian feels like he is not the same person. A friend lets him know that the school has a conflict resolution program that might be able to help them. Would such a program help in this situation?

No, they need to be in an actual fight, not just unhappy, to receive services.

Yes, it will help but their friendship probably cannot be saved.

Yes, the point of conflict resolution is to provide a peaceful resolution to any issue.

Answer 1

Yes, the conflict resolution program could potentially help in this situation. It aims to provide tools and strategies for individuals to peacefully resolve conflicts and improve their relationships. Even if Pedro's personality has changed, the program may assist Christian and Pedro in understanding and addressing the underlying issues causing their conflicts. Ultimately, the success of the program in saving their friendship will depend on both Christian and Pedro's willingness to engage in the process and make efforts to resolve their differences.
