To operate successfully and in the spirit of social justice, readers need to relate to all people in a spirit of open-mindedness. This guide is modeled on culturally responsive, social, and emotional concepts that encourage interactions between students at school, at home, and in other spaces. By exploring subjects like the difficult history of racism, the problems of ageism, and the challenges of LGBTQ+ people, readers will learn more about the challenges we all face today.

"How many times have you uttered a standard, knee-jerk phrase when trying to counsel a young child or respond to irritating behavior? Even when it's clear our typical verbal reactions and directives aren't working, many adults just don't know what to say instead. Changing the way we talk may be a daunting prospect, but What not to say: tools for talking with young children succeeds in steering parents, teachers, nannies, and others in how to revamp their communication with 1- to 6-year-olds. By understanding the importance of what children hear from us and utilizing the book's practical tools, readers can begin to think twice and alter how they typically speak to the children in their lives. Confrontations and misunderstanding can be turned around with clarity, honesty, consistency, and humor." --Publisher description.
