“Today’s young people no longer respect their parents. They are rude and impatient. They have no self-control.”

![Page 21: Creating a Container for Learning](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081520/56816494550346895dd6681a/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
PII
• Prevention is anything we do to prevent conflict in our programs or to prepare for it before it happens.
• Intervention is responding when conflicts do happen.
• Invention is creating something new and constructive out of the situation.

“I can see that you’re upset because…”“I can tell you’re angry about…”“ You feel … because…”“ You sound…”
• “I hear you saying that…”

Key Invention questions
Is the conflict:• A sign that something is wrong with the program;• A sign students need more skills;• A sign that the program is not well-planned;• A sign that we need to look outside of the program
to address the conflict?

Key Invention questions
• Are there new procedures we need to establish in the program?
• Do we need to revise our procedures or schedules?
• Is our program meeting students’ needs?• Are we planning in a way that prevents
conflict?
