[quote=Anonymous]Yes I apologize. I do it a lot, but I’m specific. I’ll apologize for raising my voice or being dismissive, but that doesn’t mean I let my kid off the hook if they did fonething that led to me losing my cool. But yes, I apologize for inappropriate behavior that doesn’t meet our family’s standards of respect and kindness. This is one of those things where you can’t just think about yourself, you have to think about what you are modeling for your kid. Not only do I want my children to be able to apologize when they mess up, but I also want them to expect that future friends, partners, colleagues, etc., should treat them respectfully. Apologizing to someone is a way of acknowledging that they are worthy of respect. I want my kids to feel worthy. That by itself is worth apologizing to them.[/quote]
