• Recognize how everyday language influences behavior, identity, and self-belief.
• Shift from controlling or corrective language to language that guides and teaches.
• Use words that promote responsibility, cooperation, and problem-solving.
• Replace praise and criticism with feedback that builds confidence and effort.
• Apply simple language swaps that work at home, in classrooms, and in community spaces.
