1. If you are present when two friends disagree or have an argument…how do you handle it? What is your involvement? How direct are you? Do you disengage, get involved, try to mediate…?
If I were in a situation where two friends are having an argument I would immediately handle it by getting both of them to focus on me rather than each other. My involvement would be to act as a judge during the argument like it was a court debate. I would be as direct as possible with both of my friends yet stay neutral so neither of them feel like they are losing the argument.

I would respect my families’ wishes to only invite certain people.
