give you a ballpark estimate of how long It will take."
Escalating Assertion
Start with a "minimal" assertive response... Other fails to respond... Gradually escalate the assertion?--
increasingly firm without being aggressive.
Example: From the first example, "I know what you have to say is important but I really want to finish what I
was saying." "I really want to finish before you begin to speak."

Example: "I told you to complete the forms by November 15, and you agreed to do so. Now it is January 15 and

you want me to do?"
I-Language Assertion
Description of behavior: "When you __________ ,"
How it affects you life: "It affects __________ ,"
Describe your feelings: "and I feel __________ ;"

Example: "When you shout the effect is I am unable to work with you and I feel angry. Therefore, I would like
for you to stop shouting and tell me what you want."
Positive Assertion

Examples: "I'm glad you came back to see me." "I did a good job working with that upset student."
Repeated Assertion

over and over again, rote repetition.
Example: "You said you would complete this form and there is missing information."...A sarcastic reply... "The
form has not been completed." ...Another comment... "I have to have this form completed."
