Model apologies



do not force your kid to apologize, because it leads to resentment. however if you model apology yourself, your kid can learn to follow your example. once one thing goes wrong, take as much responsibility as you can to model how to step up and take responsibility. "I see two upset kids...I'm thus thusrry I wasn't here to assist you're employed this out before you each got so upset and commenced hit...and then I got upset somebody was obtaining hurt, so I started yelling, too...I'm so sorry....Let's all strive a do-over.....I know you do not want to hit one another, hit hurts...And I hear however mad you square measure....Let's start over so you'll be able to tell one another what you wish without attacking one another."  Notice there is no blame or shame here, which makes it easier for everyone involved to consider how they might have contributed to the problem, and to acknowledge that.
