Compromise


Compromise means an agreement or a settlement of a dispute that is reached by each side making concessions. In order for Compromise to work, you're supposed to have two people or nations agreeing on certain conditions for peace. In a teenager's life, compromise won't work if the agreement is negative, and is a draw back to his society. Compromise won't work politically if two nations talk about destruction or negatives in the world.
