It’s okay when someone says, “No.” Sometimes my teacher may tell me no, or
my friends may say no. Sometimes my family may tell me no. I may not like
to hear no because I may want something or want to do something. I may get
angry when I am told no.
It’s okay to feel sad or angry, but I must control my emotions and behavior. It is
not okay to scream or hurt people when I am told no.
I can do other things when someone tells me no.

• Instead of yelling, I can take a deep breath.

• Instead of screaming, I can talk calmly to my teacher, friends, or family.
• I can calmly ask to do another activity.
• I can draw or write about my feelings.
• I can take a sensory break.
When I control my emotions and behavior, it makes my teacher, friends, and
family happy and proud. When someone tells me no, they are not trying to be
mean. There may be many reasons why someone tells me no.

I may hear no when:

• something I want to do is not safe

• it is not the right time to do an activity or get something I want
• my behavior is hurting myself or others
I must try to remember to control my emotions and behavior when I hear no. I
must remember there is a reason why I am being told no. I also must remember
that I have choices of how to react when I am told no.
