The noisy neighbours — Lawyer & Mediator · Pretender
Two fictional neighbours are in conflict: one practises drums in the evening, the other works early shifts. They agree to try mediation. Put the stages of the session in order. Order the stages so both feel heard and find their own solution.
⚖️ All cases here are invented. This is not legal advice. For a real problem, talk to a trusted adult who can help you find proper support.

Your role
You're the mediator (in this game).
Your goal
Order the stages so both feel heard and find their own solution.
What you know
- A mediator doesn't decide who's right; the people in conflict find the solution.
Limits
- Both must agree to any solution.
Success looks like
- Safe start — Rules were set before talking.
- Both heard — Each side spoke before solutions.
- Own agreement — They built and wrote their agreement.
Skills you used
- Active listening — Listening to understand, not just to reply.
- Fairness — Applying rules the same way for everyone.
In real life
Community mediators guide neighbours through structured stages — opening, each side's story, underlying needs, options and a written agreement — without imposing a solution.
