Also, just because the kids stop shouting doesn’t mean they’ve come to a resolution that all of them feel are fair. It could just mean that one of them decided to the best strategy is to let the Wookie win.

Is that a bad thing? You have to learn to deal with conflict at some point.

Some become conditioned into being doormats for the rest of their lives, just to avoid conflict. IMO, it's a very bad thing.
They become doormats when their parents deal with everything for them, not the other way around.
That's a very broad brush you're painting with, and I disagree with it. A lot of bullying victims cope by withdrawing, avoiding social contact in unfamiliar situations and going to great lengths to avoid conflict.
