The communication between my mother and I is one of the most important aspects that impact our relationship. The communication management styles we use is what has us in a conflict about where I will attend school college in the fall. However, getting my mother 's approval for transferring to a different college is important for me to get. Getting her approval is important to me because I respect her, but our communication skills is something that we both need to work on in order to come to a conclusion. When an argument beings between my mother and I, we both cope in different ways which may cause a miscommunication. The conflict between us began because we did not agree on my interests of why transferring would be the best decision for my …show more content…
For the most part, our relationship has had many ups and downs through the past years. I am the youngest of five children which has resulted in me having higher expectations to uphold. Any decision I have made in the past year, my mother tends to overanalyze. While I know she is always looking out for my best interest, her ways of communicating with me can come off as controlling. Dee loves to know every little thing that is going on in my life. Since I am a nineteen year old college student I feel like I deserve to have certain things in my life that she doesn’t need to be informed about at all times. My mother is a complete extrovert, she loves talking to anyone and everyone. She also takes any chance she can get to be the center of attention. I also am an extrovert, but on a lesser scale. I love spending time with my friends, going out, and meeting new people, however I do not like all the attention to be on …show more content…
When in a conflict I usually end up avoiding the conflict all together. I portrayed this when my mother got in the argument about me transferring to a different school I stopped talking to her for a few days. I avoided the topic at all costs. I have not expressed to my mom that it is important for me to get her support to transfer and feel like she understands why it will be a better school for me to attend. My mothers conflict management style she has always used is competing. She will never allow herself to not win the conversation. Often her reasoning for why she is right is because she is older and my mother, because of this she feels like because of this she will always know what the best thing for me is. When we are talking she seeks control of the conversation and tends to ignore my feelings of why I feel a certain
There are different forms and reason people communicate in a health and social care environment. Methods of communication used in social care settings range from verbal and non-verbal communication and as such, communication is the exchange of information between people in an organisation (BTEC, 2010). Pearson Education Limited identified the different reasons people communicate which are; to express needs; to share ideas and information; to reassure; to express feelings and/or concerns; to build relationships; socialise; to persuade, argue and inform; to compliment and gain attention; to learn, teach and educate; to ask questions and to share experiences (2013). Hence, Communication is about making contact with others, we communicate to understand and to be understood. Thus, it involves
Nurses today need to have excellent communication skills. Receiving information from patients is the most important aspect of nursing. If nurses are unable to communicate with their patient then they would not be able to have a relationship with them. Communication is where two or more people interact with each other, by using sounds and words, this is verbal communication. Some individuals have different behaviors where they try to express themselves to others without using spoken words, this is non verbal communication. Once nurses have the proper communication tools, techniques and evidence based practice, when communicating with their patient, they would get the necessary information needed from the patient to properly diagnosis them.
I would like to start out by saying congratulations on your engagement. I would also like to take this time to share with you, some very important information I learned about during my Interpersonal Communication course. I hope that this information will help you two build a strong and healthy relationship with one another in the years to come. I believe having this valuable information on interpersonal communication and knowing your partner will be a major key in to building a solid marriage with one another.
The greatest woman I’ve ever known always told me that education was important…and she was right. I came from a small town in the suburbs of St. Louis, Missouri prior to becoming a teenager. At the time, education was abundant in St. Ann, where I lived. I attended a decent elementary school and made good grades, despite mathematics not being my cup of tea. I have
She’s one of those old souls stuck in the fifty’s and refuses to see the 21st century. She is a good mother, it 's only when it came to me she lacked. I met my mother when I was four. She adopted my little sis and me. Through my younger age I hated her I absolutely hated her and she failed to understand why or explain to me so I could understand whom the lady was that I was staying with. Where my real mother was. She failed to help me see what was going on and with me only being four I thought she kidnapped me and I hated her. As I grew up I learned precisely what was going on and I no longer had a heart for her it dwindled down to more of a dislike. I understood why was with her, but I expended most of my early youth wondering why did this have to happen to me. And why did I have to be with her. My mother wasn’t a bad mother she only lacked the nurturing a love I needed. She held my early years against me and we’ve been stepping on thin ice ever
Communication is something we all humans use. Communication “is the sharing of information between individuals by using speech”. People have ways of communicating some have their weaknesses in conversations and others have their strengths. When I communicate with others I feel that some things I say I do not verbalize right. I have two strengths and three weaknesses in my communicating. My three weakens in my communication are, check nonverbal feedback, to make people wrong and recognize that people understand information in different ways and my two strengths in my communication are being flexible, and take responsibility for the communication.
My mother tends to think with her emotions too much as appose to myself. I learned our communication and understanding of each others view points needs to improve for the future if we ever find ourselves in similar situations. It also prepared me for when my mother and I have to deal with relatives passing away. I can for certain say that when that day comes, I will be the stronger one. As chaotic as this situation is, one thing I could say we are doing correctly is managing our dog equally. Despite our issues with communicating, my mother and I did come to some kind of understanding and agreement. My mother feels like she deals with our dogs issues far too much and I agreed with her. We both came to an agreement that I will take some of those responsibilities and leave her with less stress and perhaps her viewpoints on what is best for Russell may change. A major component that could and still be tremendously improved on is the way we communicate. My mother is a very impulsive person who acts on her emotions all the time. I 'm far more less emotional and incredibly level headed and logical when It comes to tough situations and because of our contrasting ways of dealing with issues, we don 't always see eye to eye. We misunderstand each other and can be quite stubborn at times. My mother tends to think I don 't care because of my attitude and I think my mother could
I knew I didn 't have mother but little mind always felt the scarcity of mother love. I kept on watching my nephew and ices while my sister- in law wrapped them around by her arms, changed their clothes and make them laugh. I was bit older than them and used to be away from them looking and gazing on them and feeling the love of mother. My clothiers were ragged on the right arms. I used to change myself. I hardly remember my age I should be the age of seven years.
Communication is a shared language that allow an individual or individuals to communicate with someone who speaks the same language and where they can share their beliefs, value, thoughts, feelings and traditions with one another (skills you need, 2016). According to Merrian-Webster (1828) “communication is using words, sounds, signs or body language to express an ideas, thoughts, and feelings” (Merrian-Webster, 1828). Communication is one of the building blocks in a relations that can build trust, respect and loyalty a relationship. According to Stewart (2012), communication is a process of verbal (p15) like in person, telephone or video call, and nonverbal communication (p16) like body language or sign language. According to Peterson (2007) communication has two process speaking (exhaling) and listening
...e any conflict is to become calm an effective communicator. Reinforcing your listening skills are a must when looking to further your communication skills. Let’s face it you want to listen well before setting a plan of action. Never jump into any conversation unprepared, not only can it cause conflict but you can lose credibility if the meaning of what you are trying to say is lost. Verbal communication is always best, talking to another individual face to face is a good idea this way you can judge their reactions by their body language and you can express the correct meaning. But, remember that verbal is not the only form of communication. Your nonverbal communication can say a lot to the receiver (ie. body language). Use supportive messages rather than defensive ones can be more productive. Any conflict can be resolved through correct and effective communication.
So there I was enjoying a beautiful afternoon filled with warm air, the smell of the grill and all my family sitting around the table with me. It is such a treat when we can all get together for dinner. We are all so busy with our own lives that it is a challenge to have us all come together. My sisters both with newborn babies and I with my son who is 6. On this specific occasion it was me, my two sisters, both their husbands, my mother and stepfather who were in attendance. My mother tries relentlessly to make us all be in the same place at the same time. And on days like that day she succeeds. One of my favorite things to do when we all get together is to poke fun at my little sister. Yes no matter how old you are you never outgrow the need to give your little brother or
Becoming a mother has been the best part of my life. I became a mother at a very young age. I had no idea what to expect and was not in the least prepared for the journey that lie ahead. I have truly embraced motherhood and enjoy all the wonderful things it has taught me. While living through motherhood, I have found that it can teach you the most valuable lessons there are to learn. Being a mother has taught me how to have patience. I have also learned that being a mother takes a lot on mental and physical strength. My children have been the best to teach me how to juggle many tasks at once. They have made me strong. Even through some unexpected turns, I have learned how to get through hard times and really learn what it means to never give up. My children are my biggest blessing, and I hope they will learn valuable lessons through me. The skills I have learned from being a mother have helped me in my college journey.
Women are blessed with what I consider is the biggest gift in the universe and that is to give life to what once was part of them. At some point in our lives we ask ourselves……. What is a good mother? Although there can be endless definitions, my definition of a good mother is based on what I consider to be morally right. A good mother always thinks about her children first, a good mother is always willing to give her life for her children, a good mother is soft and gentle with her children, but a good mother becomes aggressive and protective when her children are exposed to potential threats and a good mother will always want the best for her children.
Has anyone ever asked you: “Who is most important to you”? To me the most wonderful mother in my life, no one can replace her in my heart. My mother, who is very nice and gentle, helps me and has always been there for me when I need her. My mother loves me very much. She is strict and educated me to become a good person. I can’t say how much love her. I am grateful to her because she gave me birth, brings me love and helped me grow up. But you know she just takes care of me a lot. Every day she tells me the same words. If you were me, you would feel very tired. I am a very happy child having my mother. I feel too tired to listen to her words, but imagine one day I don’t see her any longer and listen to her voice. What would I feel?
Many people, as well as myself, believe that a mother’s influence is one of the most important influences that one will ever come in contact with in their lives. A mother’s love, comfort, and support will often help to shape a child and allow them to become the person they need to be later on in life. My mother has had a great influence on my life from day one. I often refer to her as my “rock” because she is definitely a solid foundation in my life. Being that she is a great role model, my mother’s support and presence in my life has allowed me to grow as a person, keep my spirits high through hell and high water, prosper in all that I have done, as well as mold me to be a great person in the future.
