[quote=Anonymous]Listen, You screwed up. You now have an opportunity to model for him how to behave when you screw up, as no doubt he will at some point in life. You have to give him a chance to be mad at you, whatever, let him be however he feels, he must get this out now. Then tell him just what you told us. Then ask him how you can make it up to him. Let him know you are broken up about this. use your words. Show him you're human. Let him know he has power in forgiving you. You have a parenting opportunity here, take it. And forgive yourself. We all mess up. How wonderful you brought it up to you (that alone shows you've parented him right) and how wonderful that you are upset. You have all the tools to right this. Do it. Good luck![/quote]
