Exactly! Clear, calm, and concise communication works best. Focus on your needs, avoid blaming or explaining too much, and be consistent. Respect goes both ways, when you set boundaries firmly but kindly, it’s easier to avoid conflict and have healthy relationships.
It’s like setting a fence around your garden, you don’t need to lecture the neighbors about their weeds, you just make sure yours stay out.
