What is conflict?
Conflict is the struggle between two forces, when the main character, or protagonist, encounters a problem- a force which may prevent him or her from achieving a goal. There are four basic types of conflict, each involving a different type of obstacle or antagonist.

Character Versus Self
The protagonist must deal with a problem within himself. The character has conflicting emotions that draw him in different directions.
Example: The Door in the Wall, by Phyllis Reynolds Naylor Robin de Bureford is full of self-pity because of the illness that crippled his legs.

Character Versus Society
The character has a problem with a particular sector of society: family, friends, community, rules, government, and so on.
Example: Holes, by Louis Sachar Stanley Yelnats is sent to prison camp because a pair of old sneakers falls onto him and he is wrongfully accused of stealing them.
