[QUOTE="TeDo, post: 550273"] Absolutely. I use those types of things as teaching moments all the time. If that doesn't work, flip it around and next time he apologizes, ask him if he wants you to respond to the apology the way he always does or the way it [I]should[/I] be responded to. Mine understand that concept too so I have done that, the choice is theirs. Usually, however, when I ask them they get this dumb look on their face and ask what I mean. UGH. [/QUOTE]
