What it helps you do.
A prepared discussion with a story, prompts, pauses, practice and a way to close without putting anyone on the spot.
Before you begin: Read and rehearse first. Choose one session; you are inviting the brothers to think and speak, not delivering a lecture.

Three different conversations.
On the Level
Give a fair hearing to the brother you find difficult, without pretending to agree.
Before You Answer
Correct a real error without adding a personal attack. Restraint can still be firm.
Help with Dignity
Repair a breach of privacy, make a clear offer and respect the other man’s answer.
Each session provides the story, preparation, prompts, timings, practice and closing steps. The facilitator guide explains how to listen, handle silence and guide the conversation.
