Equitable remedy

When you and your friend are playing with toys, sometimes there might be a problem. Maybe your friend has a toy that they won't share with you, or maybe they took a toy that's really yours.

When things like this happen, sometimes you need someone else to help you find a fair solution. An equitable remedy is like when a grown-up – a teacher, for example – steps in to help you figure out how to share the toys fairly.

First, the teacher will listen to both you and your friend to understand what happened. Then, they will think of a fair solution that will make both of you happy. Maybe you will each get to play with the toy for a certain amount of time, or maybe the teacher will find another toy for you to play with instead.

An equitable remedy is a way to solve a problem fairly when there is no clear solution, and it helps to make sure that everyone is happy in the end.
