[quote=Anonymous]My newly minted 5yo was like this too (still is). I hate the angry "I'm sorry" without eye contact. He is finally getting to the point that he will apologize without having to be prompted. Generally it takes a cooling off period however (when he has been misbehaving) and, when it's an accidental, we still have to explain that even though he didn't mean it, someone else still got hurt, and saying sorry is just one way we can try to help make them feel better. I think he equates apologizing with acknowledging he's somehow been bad.[/quote]
