The author describes some guidelines for and benefits of caring confrontation. This process is particularly useful for people who fear being criticized or confronted and would rather avoid both because they remember such experiences with defeat and pain from childhood. The benefits include facilitating autonomous relationships, enhancing conflict and communication intimacy, replacing accusations with curiosity, developing skills for questioning authority effectively, reducing avoidant behaviors and script-related depression and/or anxiety, and helping people avoid embarrassment
