Answer:
Conflict occurs in all relationships and is dealt with in a respectful, productive manner in healthy relationships.
"Confrontation" may be unhealthy if it entails disrespectful or unproductive communication such as yelling, blaming or name calling. These tactics should be left out of any conflict and the focus should be on understanding each other's feelings and needs, and then finding solutions that meet everyone's needs.
Where conflict usually goes wrong is when someone is assinged blame (then expected to apologize) instead of accepting each other's perspective and finding a way everyone can have whatever is needed.
