Quarrels

When you have a disagreement with your spouse what do you do?
Do you both raise your voices at same time?
Do you ignore the children staring at you and just shout?
The home is supposed to be a serene place and not meant for fights especially between spouses as the children can only do what they see their parents do. We could always choose to be quiet and listen while not ignoring the person angry and when answering speak softly because it will be like putting off fire with water when you speak gently to an angry person (Prov,15:1- A soft answer turneth away wrath: but grievous words stir up anger)
