sensitive issue

a sensitive issue is an issue that one do not wish to understand and also do not wish other people to understand because of the potential change, should the issue to be discussed and resolved.

tho, it's true, sensitive issues should be discussed carefully (ie. think before one speak). it's not true that not discussing it would preserve peace and harmony. it would only preserve a situation that a party is not happy enough, but perhaps not have the courage to bring up; and a situation where one party is happy with, know it's not right or fair, and obviously, would not want to bring up! so, it becomes a "sensitive" issue.

it would be left to simmer, and one day it would boil over.... and the whole house will be burned down. sad... but true.
