[quote=Anonymous]I guess the only thing I would change about it is that I would tell him to go to his room and put him in charge of when he decided he was ready to apologize, rather than telling him I would be there in a few minutes to talk about it. (What is there really to talk about anyway? He was mean to you, and it was wrong. He knows it, and you know it. There is no discussion here.) Honestly, I don't care if he is in there 30 seconds or two hours, I don't care if he is sobbing, I don't care if he is reading a book or listening to music, whatever works for him. Just so long as he is pleasant when he comes out again. I would also not do the thing he needed help with until he asked nicely. Also, he is 7. He is just realizing that adults are not omnipotent, and he doesn't actually have to go to his room just because an adult told him to (although, of course, the reality is that he does). Some of this is just kind of a crappy developmental stage. [/quote]
