[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]I don't think we should be teaching girls forgiveness.
Because despite what people claim it sets them up for continued abuse.[/b]

Considering this girl is still hanging out with bullies it doesn't seem like her apology is sincere.

I don't think you need to do or say anything about it specifically beyond asking how she feels about the apology [/quote]

[b]Sorry, the bolded is just stupid.  Forgiveness doesn’t mean forgetting.  You can forgive someone and just move on, not go back to the way things were.[/b]

If you teach your girls that forgiveness is bad, just bear in mind that this means they will also be learning that *they’re* not worthy of forgiveness either.  Better hope your daughters never screw up![/quote]

But That's exactly how it translates in real life.
And you are in no place to lecture anyone given you can't explain a point without abusive language.
That you are so invested in  insisting that a bully is entitled to forgiveness  makes me think you or your daughter are bullies.
Contrary to your believe intentionally hurting someone is not  a required milestone.[/quote]
