What is prudence and when do/can I use it?
Every time you are being careful about what you say or do, you are probably using some part of Prudence!
How do I calm down?
By being aware that you need to calm down can help you use Prudence to not do or say things you will later regret.
How do I solve problems (fighting, arguing)?
Every time you realize you are too mad or too anything to work something out--and then decide to take a time out and walk away to think about it uses your strength of Self-control and Prudence. You are not reacting in ways you will later regret!
