this ritual is intentionally:
* non-authoritarian
* emotionally regulating
* predictable and safe
* designed to teach voice, listening, and repair
* aligned with everything you’ve built — without burdening children with structure meant for adults

why this works
* it trains the nervous system before it trains behavior
* it teaches conflict without fear
* it builds trust so truth comes naturally later
* it creates memory: “in my family, we talk. we listen. we stay together.”
