The S.E.A.L Strategy

• Stop and Think Breathe, listen, and think when
  and where, now or later?
• Explain What happened that you didn't like and
  what do you want?
• Acknowledge Recognize anything you did that
  contributed to the conflict, but acknowledge your
  right to treated with respect by the other person
  and vice versa.
• Lock Lock in the friendship, take a vacation, or
  lock the friendship out.

Scenario

• Laura Did you see Sara trying to guess what we
  were talking about? Shes so stupid, she totally
  copies everything I do!
• Roger I know. Shes so annoying!
• Laura During lunch, lets just pretend she
  doesnt exist. Like shes invisible.
• Roger I guess
• Laura I mean, what else are we supposed to do?
  Its like she thinks she can be with us all the
  time, and when we dont let her shes so mean
  about it!

The S.E.A.L Strategy (Example)

• Stop and Think Im going to walk away and think
  about what I need to say. I dont want to say
  something Ill regret.
• Explain I dont want to pretend shes
  invisible. Thats messed up. I dont think itll
  stop her from being mean.
• Acknowledge You dont have to be friends with
  Sara, but we cant be mean to her. Imagine if
  everyone was ignoring you.
• Lock This was hard because I really like you as
  a friend, but I dont want to ignore someone like
  that. I hope were still cool.
