Did you had experience that argue with your family?

For example:
I want to buy an encyclopaedia.
I think it is useful.
But my mother think it's useless and expensive.
So we were argue this thing for a month.

How about you?

try to explian to your mother why you want to buy it like how it helps you in study. Arguing with family member is not a good thing. It hurts the relationship.

Simple argument with family is not wanted in anyway.
Try to explain with nice things and you will succeed always.

In my opinion, argument with family isn’t always to be bad. Because it’s just a way of communication, but both of you have to be rational. But being rational sometimes is not so easy, especially when each of you can’t accept other’s opinions. If you argue with family, try to explain your opinions clearly and then try to listen to other’s opinions. But people usually can’t accept other’s opinion at once. At that time, giving each other some to be calm and to think about other’s thought.
