About this episode
Two of the most difficult words for a parent to say are, “I’m sorry.” Are you saying them enough?
As parents, we should ask for forgiveness from our kids if we lose our temper, or don’t control our tongue, or if we jump to conclusions without gathering the necessary facts.
The difficulty is that we can feel vulnerable, inadequate, and even slightly humiliated when apologizing.
But here’s the truth: Your son or daughter will grow to love and respect you even more if you apologize. Humbling yourself demonstrates—through action—a love so strong that you are willing to admit wrong in order to restore the relationship.
Saying sorry isn’t easy, but your example goes a long way in helping your children see what true spiritual maturity looks like.
