“Froward” (FROH-werd) – Old English for the opposite of toward – means contrary, not easily managed.

Example (as used by Oliver Goldsmith in his play The Good Natur’d Man): “Life at the greatest and best is but a froward child, that must be humoured and coaxed a little till it falls asleep, and then all the care is over.”

  • “Now that I have this information, we can work on a solution.”

    Thanks for this article! You have crystallized and defined an issue that has been nagging me for some time. I knew that there were issues with a business I work with, but I just couldn’t clearly define it. Now that I have this information, we can work on a solution. It seems to me that this idea would apply to all aspects of a business and not just customer service.
