OMG KRISTINA this is GENIUS! This is absolutely fantastic advice! WOW! As soon as I get a chance I'm going to try this! THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing! YOU ARE AMAZING! 😃
My Civil Law professor had us do this exact thing. He had us all call out topics that we were passionate about, and marked down who was pro, and who was con. Then he said, "Your assignment..." He erased the words "Pro" and "Con" on the board, switched them, and told us that when we debated, we had to present the argument of the opposite of whatever we were passionate about. It was as intriguing as it was disturbing. But it gave insight into the "other" position on whatever it was. This tactic works to create a simple level of empathy, even if you don't end up changing your mind.
Oh my this is exactly how our counseling goes. He makes us repeat what the other person has said so that we showed we listened and understand what the person is saying. Empathy is hard for me and this style of arguing has helped me in that department.
You need to hear my folks argue. They argue on the same side of a subject. What's really funny is when they realize we're on the same side of the subject. They both just stop talking and laugh. They've done it for years.
Too funny! My husband and I do this (occasionally) too. I’ve attempted to figure out how we end up getting our wires so crossed, but as of yet…I simply just don’t know. Lol!
LOL and LOVE it. While the Mirror Technique sounds like the biggest recipe for disaster, it does actually end well for everybody! Your unwitting participants were awesome, kudos to them! Loving your channel, mama :)
Omg, why did I never think of this! Going to use this with my 2 boys for sure, they’re 7 years apart so this should be a really good eye-opener for them both.
I like the idea of switching sides. I will try this with my youngest because boy, is she persistant! My oldest is more empathetic and I love that about her. My youngest can definitely see what its like in her sisters shoe and hopefully see why she cannot have it her way.
I dont have children, I got married 3 months ago and I’m still not shire that I want them, but If I do in the future, you’re videos are going to be heaven for me.
90% of the arguments that I had with my brother when we where kids, the reason why the arguments that we had occurred in the first because he was determined to argue. He pretended to be mad about something, because he enjoyed bitching.
You're in my house every day I listen to you 2 or 3 times a day I have an adult toddlers I have a son that's 21 I have a son that's 26 and I have a husband that 60 trying to train them to go in a room in that look like when they leave and trying to train them to flush and watching your videos is amazing is there anything that your husband does that you tried changing and have a hard time with it I have it or a toddler moment I would love to hear that thank you for sharing your videos
I put signs up all over the house to try to get my toddler's adult toddlers oh boys a note near the kitchen sink as an example it says put me down Wash Me or rinse me in the bathroom out in the light flush the toilet close to shower curtain I thought the signs will be repeat it over and over again when they'd seen it they would do it and then I could take them down and they would continue the habit I took them down and the Habit didn't continue help me please

Lol I was cracking up at the married couple.

OML That is hysterical! 😂
I do this often with my husband 😅

I can't even tell you how brilliant this is.
Great idea, Kristina. I love having the kids talk about what they love about each other. They stop feeling angry and can then calmly find a solution.
Omg, why did I never think of this! Going to use this with my 2 boys for sure, they’re 7 years apart so this should be a really good eye-opener for them both.
Now only if it could work with 3 and 4 year olds.
Brilliant! Im a very empathetic person & a Gemini so I'm going to try this with my kids & my husband!
Thank You 😊
That my dear ,is Policy Debate! I was a state champ at debating. I totally love this video! Great job!
I'm trying this on my kids who fight about daily chores. It's a win win situation. 😆
I like the idea of switching sides. I will try this with my youngest because boy, is she persistant! My oldest is more empathetic and I love that about her. My youngest can definitely see what its like in her sisters shoe and hopefully see why she cannot have it her way.
As in..this is amazing. I'm trying this with myself and the people around me.
Awesome video! So well done! Loved the explanation of empathy 💕
Awesome. I'm totally sharing this with my trainer so we can use this at work with our restorative tasks
Orville and Wilbur Wright did this! It is brilliant
Great idea! I’m using it when my kids are older 😊👍🏽

I hope to aspire to be as open and honest person as you Kristina.
best idea ever! thanks for that video and all the others.
That's hysterical! Love that idea!
Love it! Genius!
Brilliant
What a wonderful idea! Thx!
If only my hubby would argue. He just says I don't know and walk away.
Yup going to try this out for sure! Thank you!
This is genius! ❤
Puff the magic dragon🤣

ms. Kuzmic. Your a rock star. I hope i get to use this one. My only question, how die you actually get them to agree to role play?

Thank you!
Awesome
This is a great advice. Need to try it! 😁👌
I'd like to see someone do that with politics.
Bill it wouldn't work cause each side would just agree with themselves
Great idea! Am going to try it!
You're in my house every day I listen to you 2 or 3 times a day I have an adult toddlers I have a son that's 21 I have a son that's 26 and I have a husband that 60 trying to train them to go in a room in that look like when they leave and trying to train them to flush and watching your videos is amazing is there anything that your husband does that you tried changing and have a hard time with it I have it or a toddler moment I would love to hear that thank you for sharing your videos
Love this idea!
Love it!!!
I love your videos this is amazing
As a parent, you have no right to get angry at or punish your kids for arguing. You caused the sibling rivalry by having more than one kid.
Oooooooo this was awesome
This is hilarious
Yeah that's a good idea for other families but not ours 😂😂
Yeah, it only works if the ppl involved are willing to see things from the other person's POV.
Love you!!
I adore you!
Thanks I will try with my kids
1:49 smokeless an edible 🍪. 😂. Pretty women.
