[quote=Anonymous]I disagree that OP’s kid felt “forced” to apologize or that she felt shamed. Her perspective matters a lot, and if she didn’t feel shamed then why get so upset? I have an ADHD kid who loses it sometimes (amen to age 9 being hard!!), and I would have no problem with this if it were done right. And the kids feeling no shame would be a big sign it was. When my kid loses it, he feels powerless. But when he apologizes, it is a way for him to feel in control again bc he knows what to do to make it better. [/quote]
