Scenario

When friend groups struggle with accountability and difficult conversations

Our friend group has someone who consistently says things that make the rest of us uncomfortable but no one wants to be the one to address it directly. We all complain to each other but we haven't figured out what we owe each other in terms of accountability and whether maintaining harmony is worth the cost of staying silent.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

The group is avoiding moral responsibility for addressing harmful behavior because the social cost of confrontation feels higher than the cost of complicity.
