How do you teach respect during conflicts, not just when everyone is calm?

Hi parents,

I’m curious how you approach teaching respect in real-life moments — especially during arguments, emotional situations, or when things escalate quickly.

Not rules or punishments, but things like:

• how kids learn what to say instead of reacting
• how you keep conversations from turning into shouting matches
• how respect is modeled in the moment, not just explained afterward

Have you found any phrases, habits, or approaches that actually helped over time?
What worked (or didn’t) in your family?

I’m interested in learning from different experiences and perspectives. Thanks.
