  Sometimes,even the best friends have fights. They disagree with each other and begin to argue. Sometimes,they even stop talking to each other.

  What can be done to help the two friends make up? Finding a good friend who knows both of them very well to be a peacemaker is a good way. Maybe one day you will be a peacemaker for your good friends. Here are some useful communication strategies for you to use:

  & State your feelings clearly but don't criticize them. Begin with "I feel. . . " instead of "You always...”

  Look at the other person in the eyes when you are talking.

 Ask questions to make sure that you understand the other person.

  Repeat the other person's ideas as you understand them.
