Ask HN: Do you discuss issues or just hope they go away?
I come from a family that struggles to communicate and just hopes that problems will go away.<p>One parent offended the other? A week without talking and then in the next Sunday family lunch let&#x27;s pretend nothing happened. They divorced after many decades and don&#x27;t speak to each other anymore.<p>Same at work. One coworker might disagree with something, just goes along and starts to resent the other person. But on the surface everything is fine.<p>What&#x27;s your approach? And if you prefer to speak, has that ever backfired?
