If you stand as the peacekeeper, you will have to accept a number of truths
1. You have to keep your reactions/responses in check; this is needed for you to have and maintain trust from all family members.
2. You have to monitor each member’s situation. Knowing what’s happening to each individual will help you manage the interactions at home a little better.
3. You will be the emotional and social glue of the family.
4. You have to expect moments when you will feel exhausted keeping the family united. Coz it is. It is exhausting.
I recommend that instead of settling for patch ups after quarrels, opt to work on slowly but surely addressing the root of a misunderstanding or mistake. Actual and long-term peacemaking will lessen the burden on you and improve the family bond.
