ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Rogerian method

The Rogerian method is like when two friends are having an argument, and instead of one person trying to make the other person think their way is the right way, both people try to really listen and understand the other person's point of view. This way, both people can find a way to compromise and get along better.

It's like when Wendy wants to play with the dollhouse, but Robbie wants to play with the trucks. Instead of yelling and arguing, they both take a turn playing with each other's toys and find a way to play together.

In the Rogerian method, people try to really understand the other person's feelings and thoughts, and then find common ground to work together on. It's like a puzzle where both people have to work together to find the right pieces that fit.
