Personal question · Ethics, Collaboration

The deal we never wrote down

Families and households often run on spoken understandings about money, space, time or caregiving. Think about an informal agreement that made sense when it was made, until circumstances changed and the people involved had to look at it again.

The two questions

  1. 1Describe a time an informal agreement in your family or household had to be revisited because circumstances changed. How did you decide what was fair?
  2. 2Tell us about a time you worked it out with the others involved. What did you do to make sure everyone's needs and views were heard, and what would you do differently?
