Every parent knows the ride home after a bad recess: the quiet in the back seat, then the story spilling out about who said what to whom. This is steady guidance for those moments: how to listen before fixing anything, questions that help a child sort out what actually happened, the difference between a rough patch and real exclusion, and words to offer that build judgment instead of just settling today's score.
