Try: Always be positive when trying to communicate with the cr the cr’s mood will most likely reflect your mood so if you are angry sad or upset the cr will be also – and this mood will come at a time when you are the least likely to be able to cope with it because you are angry sad and upset act the way you would like the cr to act if you want the cr to act calm be calm even when you may not feel like it be careful also not to reflect the cr’s mood – if they have angry or frustrated outbursts don’t react with the same type of mood – this will just escalate the situation also be aware of your body language don’t assume a threatening stance in front of the cr when asking them to do something
