[QUOTE="'Chelle, post: 37089, member: 1161"] I apologize to my kids as well. I found that since I was apologizing at a time when difficult child and I were both calm after the incident, it usually brought up a calm, rational discussion of the whole thing and he was better able to articulate what brought on his behaviors that pushed me to behaviors that needed apologies for. [img]:crazy:[/img] It did help him learn that you need to own up to your mistakes and apologize for them. It also allowed him to look at himself and figure out why he was behaving that way, which for him was a big thing as he doesn't always find it easy thinking and talking about his feelings etc. [/QUOTE]
