The art of Apology

  

We normal want our kids to be of their best behavior, especially when

they`re sharing or even playing with other kids.

The best way to teach our children the art of apologizing is to practice it. We as parent should be the first one to apologize when we have overreacted due to stress or frustrations.

Our children will learn that nobody is perfect and anybody can make mistakes and importance of apologizing after realizing you have made a mistake.

First we should make sure that children have realizing that they have made a mistake before asking them to apologizing, example I am sorry I didn't brush my shoes, I am sorry I didn't do what I was asked to do.

After apologize then forgiveness follows. After they have known a genuine and sincerely apology they need to know forgiveness as well. We should not remind them they mistake every day.

Since they already realize they are mistake and ask for forgiveness.

If they still don’t know we need to correct them through walking with them through the scenario.

Most of the times kids learn by doing so to make sure they meant when they apologize we must make sure they clean their mess they made or creating something to a friend they hurt.

Sometime children can be too upset to apologizing allowing sometime to cool off and apologizing later this will help them to gain some personal perspectives to be able to deliver a sincere and genuine apology later. If they keep on doing the same thing over and over that means their apology has lost meaning and sincerity. Then we should make sure they are changing their behavior.
