This document discusses negotiating with loved ones and provides tips to improve negotiations. It advises against positional bargaining and threats/rewards, and recommends asking questions, listening, exploring options, and agreeing on evaluation criteria. Common mistakes include threats, giving in too easily, rushing, and disengaging from the negotiation. The document suggests taking time to think by waiting, going to the "balcony" to observe and reflect, and not negotiating in anger. Getting support from others is also recommended if feeling like disengaging from the negotiation.
