October is Conflict Resolution Month in Colorado
By Denver Divorce Lawyer on October 27, 2011
Conflict makes people’s lives more difficult by adding stress and negativity, which then exacerbates the original conflict. Conflict occurs everywhere but it is especially burdensome when it occurs within the home and with a spouse and/or children. There are many reasons why conflict may arise within the home, some trivial and some not. One of the most common points of contention, in the current economic decline, is finances, including spending and debt. Other conflicts may arise over parenting, time management, diet and health, home improvement, lack of communication, or even different goals and aspirations.
Oftentimes, these conflicts can be resolved, making family life much more comfortable, peaceful, and open. October is Conflict Resolution Month, a time to encourage resolutions, as such, various Colorado organizations are holding conferences, workshops, and seminars exploring topics relevant to conflict as well as offering training. The following include a few of the offerings held so far this month and a few lie ahead:
