12∞ · Question 3.6.3
How do I set boundaries without sounding superior or hostile?
Use first-person language and describe behavior rather than character: “I am not willing to debate this” rather than “You are too unconscious to understand.”
From the book 12∞ Twelve to Infinity by D.R. Davenport. The full answer is free to read with an iBelieve account.
