SORRY NOT SORRY: the gift of an apology

ahhh – the forced apology. A go-to of parents for millennia. “Go say sorry to your sister! If you don’t APOLOGISE right this second…!” Spoiler alert: it doesn’t teach them anything. It results in insincere words spoken to avoid conflict and shame and it may even enter you into a power struggle. What a waste. So, if you are not into timewasting and ineffectiveness – try this approach instead!
