WHY LEARN TO MANAGE YOUR ANGER?

  • Chronic anger is a strain on your cardiovascular system and can lead to heart disease, heart attack and stroke.
  •  
    Anger doesn’t solve problems. By learning to control your anger and channel it  into positive coping skills, you will help resolve the problem rather than make it worse.
  • Being more positive and less angry about life and other people WILL make you a happier person!

Conflict Resolutions for Teens
NOT ALL ADOLESCENT ARE ANGRY YOUNG ADULTS!
 

However, all adolescent can benefit from learning healthy conflict resolution and anger management skills. Through this course, teens will learn:

1. Increased self-awareness

2. Frustration tolerance

3. Self Control

4. Competence and empathy for themselves and others

Teenagers are highly likely to face pressures from peer groups, parents and teachers, and are hence bound to feel frustrated at one time or the other. Conflict Resolution for Teens can prepare them so that they can deal with the challenges of conflict and emotion of anger in a positive and constructive way.

 

 

The teenage years are a very critical phase in every individual’s life, often being a period dominated by turbulent emotions.

 

Some teenagers manage to scrape through without any problems and sail smoothly into the next stage of their lives, there are some who need to manage and control their anger and emotions.

  • One teenage boy teases or insults another.
  •  
    A teenage girl accuses another of spreading untrue gossip.
  • One teen pushes, bumps, or shoves another.
  • A teen takes or destroys another's possessions.
  • Words are exchanged, tempers flare, conflicts escalate, and all too often, violence results.

Unfortunately, many teens believe that when a conflict or disagreement arises, they have no choice but to fight.

Some see fighting as the only acceptable way to resolve disagreements.  They do not know of any way to avoid a fight without losing face. Others do not know how to control themselves in the face of a perceived insult. In one survey of junior and senior high school students:

¨ 33 percent said that when they were really angry there was no way they could control themselves.

¨ 41 percent said that if they were challenged, they would fight.

¨ 21 percent said that avoiding fights was a sign of weakness
