Teaching A gentle answer cools an angry moment

A soft, gentle answer can cool down anger - your words have the power to calm a room or set it on fire.

  • Have you ever made someone's anger bigger by yelling back? Have you ever made it smaller by answering softly? Tell about it.
  • The proverb says a cheerful heart is like a party every day. What is one happy or thankful thought you could hold onto today?
  • Why is it hard to listen when someone corrects you? How can listening actually help you grow?
