The Language of the Home.

The words spoken in a home every day, the labels, the jokes, the offhand comments, accumulate quietly into a child's sense of who they are, often more powerfully than any single, deliberate conversation about identity ever could. This module turns close attention to that everyday language, helping a parent notice what it's actually building and adjust it with intention.

• How everyday, repeated language shapes a child's sense of identity more than occasional deliberate conversations do.
• A way of noticing the specific labels and phrases that get used most often in this home.
• The difference between language that builds a child up and language that quietly narrows who they think they can be.
• Practice noticing and adjusting one recurring phrase this week.
