Wear the mask of patience
If a person donât have a lot of patience then sorting out family problems or maintaining peace in the family is going to be tough. However, it might seem like a good idea. May be it is. But family problems never ends, they are always going to pop up. Therefore for a person having family responsibilities, it is always better to wear the mask of patience. Patience is called as the ultimate solution of all virtues. Simple reason behind this is because it is the cure to anger which in turn is considered as the ultimate problem of all issues.

When person deals with his/her family using anger they damage their ability to communicate meaningfully. Therefore always make sure that you always respond with patience.
Separate the family members according to their behavior
Dealing with different people in same family is a difficult task to achieve. Everyone possess their own behavior and managing each of them differently according to their behavior is again a challenging task for a person. Likelihood, if you separate the person according to their behavior it gives them a chance to detach themselves from it. Else, if you just point out the person and attack on them, then they will definitely get defensive and attack back. So, it is always better to treat different family members differently according to their behavior. It will help in keeping family relation strong and maintaining strong bond of love between them.
Donât think on conflicts too much
An argument with family will always lead to conflicts and ultimately to unhappy family relations. Arguments and conflicts makes person to think more on it. By this, a person may think a lot even after an argument is finished. Thinking over and over on such things and keeping it in your head never solves problems. For example if you just had a serious argument between you and your mother, no doubt it makes you upset and force you to search for an answer. But these answers wonât come from over the argument repeatedly. Whenever you are worried about a family or have an argument with one of the family member then just let it go. Just relax and donât play the same scenario out in your head. Most of the time the issue resolves itself over the time.
Listen carefully to each and everyone
Most of the time when you listen to a person you just wait for their turn to speak out. Our mind is not concentrating on what the person is saying rather it is wandering off and thinking about how we can cross it or it is internally gossiping in our mind about how stupid this person is. Instead if we sit there and carefully listen to the person then the scenario might become more favorable. Whenever your family member is trying to speak out something make sure you listen to him/her carefully. Donât wait for your turn to talk only. Carefully listen what he/she is speaking and try to grab the meaning behind words. This will increase confidence of family member on you. It shows your love and affection towards your family.

Finally, it is very much important to remember that whatever may be the situation but it’s your family. All members in your family are crucial aspect to build a happy family. Make a habit to cope up happily with all family members, it is not a stranger trying to steal your wallet, it’s your family member and it’s your responsibilities to put your family members on right track.
