As far as we know ourselves, what is familiar about inner, personal conflicts, how do we behave or how do our negative emotions influence on dynamics of domestic conflicts – these and other issues were discussed by the group of women on work-shops, conducted in Tskaltubo, Senaki and Poti.

- We differ from each other. Coming out of it, we act differently. Often we do not mention that incorrect behavior  promote to deepening the conflict- mentioned the participant of the work-shop.
