PIECES is a 6 phase model of mediation
Starting with phase 1:
P – Prime: Prep for kind, productive conversations.
Can you guess what the next phase is? 👀
#FamilyTools #PeacefulParenting
Rest? Family time? Projects?
When goals clash, conflict can follow. That’s why early conversations matter.
👂Ask: “What would make this break feel good for you?”
📝 Bonus tip: Write a short-term family schedule together.
💬 What’s your family’s top priority this spring break?
#springbreak #familymediation #conflictresolution
When routines change, things can get messy fast.
Different expectations = potential for conflict.
🗓️ Tip: Plan a short family meeting before the break. Talk expectations. Listen to each other.
🤝 What’s one thing you wish your family talked about before a school break?
#springbreak #familymediation #conflictresolution
Spring break promises fun—but also challenges. Kids are off, routines are disrupted, and conflicts might bubble up.
Good news? Conflict can be a signal, not a failure.
💬 Over the next few posts, we’ll explore why spring break can bring tension—and how to handle it with grace.
👉 Stay tuned!
