Translations:Resolving Complaints Respectfully/9/en
A measured middle position is generally more sustainable. Neighbours are entitled to information about effects on shared space, and to nothing beyond that. Explaining that a gathering ran later than planned and will be managed differently is sufficient. The composition of the guest list is not a matter that requires disclosure.
| Safety=Respectful resolution rests on the assumption that both parties retain autonomy. Neither neighbour is obliged to accept indefinite disturbance, and neither is obliged to justify lawful private life. Holding both of those principles at once is what keeps a conversation from becoming either capitulation or confrontation.
