About this listen
Are you tired of forcing your kids to say 'I'm sorry,' only to see them repeat the same behaviour an hour later? In this episode, Jess and Scott dissect the common parenting trap of forced apologies and, more surprisingly, forced forgiveness. They explore why simply demanding these magic words can be meaningless and even teach children to override their own feelings. Discover practical, empathy-building strategies, like action-oriented repair, to move beyond the empty 'sorry' and guide your children toward genuine understanding and stronger relationships.
