and then you realize they are right.
There are different ways of handling arguments graciously here are few:

2: An argument is not as a quarrel. Stay calm and control your emotions before you begin to express your feelings,
3: Avoid screaming and threatening tone. Even if the other person raises their voice and you remain calm they will eventually lower their tone as well.
4: If you lose your temper you lose the argument. If you go in for argument, take care of your temper. Your logic (if you have any) will take care of itself.
5: Attacking your opponent or Winning an argument should not be the goal but try to resolve things quickly and successfully is the goal.
6: Avoid accusations and blaming. Don’t bring past conflicts or old issues into today’s argument whatever those are one year old or one week old, be specific about what’s bothering you at that time and limit your discussion to that one issue.
7: Make your points clearly, clarify any misunderstandings, Always make eye contact, that shows you are not hiding or lying anything.

15: Never threaten during argument it will make situation worst.
The aim of an argument should not be to win or lose, indeed it’s about resolving the issue and to develop an understanding or a compromise between both parties. You have to agree to disagree. There is nothing wrong with you both living by different rules and having different opinions.
