“State the idea you wish to express as clearly as possible, and in terms preschoolers can understand.” Example: It is dangerous to play in the street. ​​​​​​

“Rephrase in a positive manner,” as in It is good to play where it is safe.

“Rephrase the idea, bearing in mind that preschoolers cannot yet make subtle distinctions and need to be redirected to authorities they trust.” As in, “Ask your parents where it is safe to play.”

“Rephrase your idea to eliminate all elements that could be considered prescriptive, directive, or instructive.” In the example, that’d mean getting rid of “ask”: Your parents will tell you where it is safe to play.

“Rephrase any element that suggests certainty.” That’d be “will”: Your parents can tell you where it is safe to play.

“Rephrase your idea to eliminate any element that may not apply to all children.” Not all children know their parents, so: Your favorite grown-ups can tell you where it is safe to play.

“Add a simple motivational idea that gives preschoolers a reason to follow your advice.” Perhaps: Your favorite grown-ups can tell you where it is safe to play. It is good to listen to them.

“Rephrase your new statement, repeating the first step.” “Good” represents a value judgment, so: Your favorite grown-ups can tell you where it is safe to play. It is important to try to listen to them.

“Rephrase your idea a final time, relating it to some phase of development a preschooler can understand.” Maybe: Your favorite grown-ups can tell you where it is safe to play. It is important to try to listen to them, and listening is an important part of growing.

In working on the show, Rogers interacted extensively with academic researchers. Daniel R. Anderson, a psychologist formerly at the University of Massachusetts who worked as an advisor for the show, remembered a speaking trip to Germany at which some members of an academic audience raised questions about Rogers’s direct approach on television. They were concerned that it could lead to false expectations from children of personal support from a televised figure. Anderson was impressed with the depth of Rogers’s reaction, and with the fact that he went back to production carefully screening scripts for any hint of language that could confuse children in that way.

In fact, Freddish and Rogers’s philosophy of child development is actually derived from some of the leading 20th-century scholars of the subject. In the 1950s, Rogers, already well known for a previous children’s TV program, was pursuing a graduate degree at The Pittsburgh Theological Seminary when a teacher there recommended he also study under the child-development expert Margaret McFarland at the University of Pittsburgh. There he was exposed to the theories of legendary faculty, including McFarland, Benjamin Spock, Erik Erikson, and T. Berry Brazelton. Rogers learned the highest standards in this emerging academic field, and he applied them to his program for almost half a century.

(Teen, 2k)

I’ll Dissolve When The Rain Pours In, When The Nightmares Take Me by @clotpolesonly​​​​, When Stiles finally managed to contort himself the right way without causing injury, he stared at the words on his inner thigh. And then he stared some more, long enough for the water to grow cold around him, wondering if this was part of the dream. Finally he decided that it had to be real only because his subconscious was not creative enough to come up with this. There, in freckle-brown letters stark against pale skin, was the name Jackson Whittemore. (Teen, 38k)

It Creeps Up On You by 37cats​​​​, It’s not like Jackson even likes Stiles, he’s an annoyance that barely registers on Jackson’s radar. But Stiles just smells so damn good, Jackson can’t help himself. (Teen, 3k)

Omertà— Be loyal to the oath by Stereklenidus (orphan_account)

(1/? I 6,355 I Explicit)

“Why didn’t you ever tell me that I was just a competition for you?”Derek had never fucked anyone more than once. His rules one meet, one night and no repeats. The hot coffee what was seeping through his pants and the stinging of his skin was the exact reason he never fucked the same Omega twice. Wincing, he took a deep breath and felt his skin to heal. “Babe…” He kept his voice even, despite the churning in his gut.

“Don’t you babe me asshole.” Stiles grated and glared. “Tell me why?”

Derek ignored his comment and leaned back in his seat, perched his elbow the armrest and steepled his finger in front of a mouth considering the question. “I think it would be a good reason to break thing up then. Well, before that I would apologize for fucking you the second or the third or the fourth or other uncountable times and as you have at last found out my little secret. I think it’s better that we break our engagement.”

Stiles always had a thing for Derek, but then again, so did everyone else. Stiles just wanted to be seen as different, which was why he waited.

But maybe he waited a little too long.

Prompt: “Stiles shy nerd (SWEET KIND LOVING NURTURING OMEGA PLS!),has a HUGE crush on his bff popular Derek (MFBADASS ALPHA). He keeps on trying to shine through the hordes of Derek’s admirers. Derek sometimes catches scent of his mate but doesn’t know it’s stiles with all the ABO (kate/jen/paige/etc) around. derek tells everything to stiles bcs they’re such bff & he’s comfortable with stiles (sheriff & Talia work together to take care of BH). Stiles usually bows out everytime any ABO tries to talk to Derek bcs he’s not that hot/beautiful like others. then stiles reaches the age to get a mate, tries to confess to Derek but sees derek with somebody and thought derek gets a mate & is heartbroken (but resolves to an unrequited love). Then new OMC comes & tries to court stiles, Derek gets angry but doesn’t know why & tries to gets stiles back (new OMC keeps on getting in the way between them). things happens (Derek realizes stiles’s his mate or something or anything) & happy ending!”

Compatible by nervousubgirl

(7/? I 17,124 I Not Rated)

Stiles is just an average high school girl until one day everything changes. After discovering that she is one of the few human women with the capability to conceive and carry werewolf babies to term she suddenly finds herself surrounded by wolves that want to claim her. Desperate to father children and carry on their dying out species, not all of the wolves will be willing to take no for an answer. For her own safety Stiles has no choice but to transfer to the Shifter Institute and be placed under the protection of alpha Derek Hale who still hasn’t recovered from the pain of losing his last compatible Paige. The alpha will do whatever it takes to keep her safe, even if it’s from her own Institute assigned mentor Kate Argent, who just so happens to be his fiance.

Don’t Judge a Book by His Cover by captaintinymite (augopher)

(4,510 I Mature I Complete)  *nerd!stiles

Stiles doesn’t care about the rumors surrounding Beacon Hills High School’s resident bad boy, Derek Hale. In fact, he thinks the rumors are total crap. Of course, being secretly in love with someone has a way of clouding one’s judgment.

However, he knew for a fact that Derek liked books. So when the two paired up for a final English project, he was excited (but also a little terrified).

But you know what they say…never judge a book by its cover. The same goes for people.

A Devil Named Derek by Mimiminaj

“What’re you doing here, Stilinski? Did you only score half the winning points at the last lacrosse game instead of all of them?”

A Breakfast Club AU

Mr. Tan and Muscular by KostraKitty 

(12,440 I Explicit I Complete)   *roommates/housemates, lacrosse captain!derek

Stiles’ life had been a living hell since kindergarten where a certain Derek Hale tortured him on a daily basis throughout the years. Stiles is a completely lonely and slightly depressed teenager just trying to get through the days when the worst thing imaginable happened. Derek moved in. Turns out what Stiles thought would be hell, actually turned out to be exactly what he needed.

That’s Debatable by cloudsarefluffy 

(16.703 I Mature I Complete)  *omega!stiles

Stiles is known for not being a run-of-the-mill omega.

He’s mouthy, stubborn, strongly opinionated, and he doesn’t appreciate egotistical alphas in the slightest. In fact, he’ll tell them exactly where to shove it— … if he could. Sadly, when you’re in a Contemporary Issues class at school with a teacher who loves write-ups, one must curb the tongue to some degree.

Even when lacrosse star and alpha Derek Hale is being a massive asshole, and continues to argue with Stiles every chance he gets.

Love Hurts by DustinMcDreamy

You Are My Undoing by Samcgrath 

(47,392 I Explicit I WIP)   *sick!stiles

In a Moment of Vulnerability by cloudsarefluffy 

(87,097 I Explicit I Complete)   *omega!stiles, mpreg

While in New York City to visit his aspiring and success-hungry friend Scott, who left for an internship he fought for over several years ago, Stiles runs into an alpha with a devilish reputation and a dark, tantalizing look that precedes him. Couple that with horny loneliness and failed suppressants, and you’ve got the perfect recipe for a one-night stand that will set the bar forever.

But what if forever isn’t something that the one person you’ve given yourself to wants? What if a forever is somehow growing inside of you after a few months pass and a planned heat is missed? What if you don’t know what to do and there’s only so much chocolate that can soothe an aching heart before you feel like you’ve got morning sickness all over again?

This is a story about how Stiles loses his virginity alongside himself, and somehow, he manages to find something he never thought he’d ever have along the way.

Under the Surface by 1jet2unknown

(99,633 I Explicit I WIP)   *college au

Stiles had been warned several times by his father to never go near a werewolf. But the 12 year old kid just couldn’t resist its curiousity and even though the wounded wolf he found near the woods should have been terrifying, he brought him home, trying to help him heal. Little did he know that this encounter would bring out a side of him he never knew and would have to hide forever, even with the world around him changing over the years and werewolf turning from mystic legends to open members of the community.When Stiles enters College and his life gets more and more entangled with Derek Hale, it gets harder and harder for him to hide his true self from the world…

The Fire in my Veins by tearsandholdme

(128,742 I Explicit I Complete)

Derek Hale is the resident bad boy that everyone warns Stiles about. They judge him but they don’t know him, not the real him, and it doesn’t stop Stiles from wanting and falling for Derek anyway. He’s got underneath his skin for both of them and no amount of warning is about to keep him away from Derek. Stiles can’t imagine his life without him.

Stiles would have never guessed that the star player of the lacrosse team and presumably the hottest guy in school who everyone wanted a piece of and one of his most hated bullies would turn out to be his soulmate.
