Is it too late now to say sorry?
“I’m a big fan of teaching clients the value of apologizing to their child,” says Dumaz. “If that’s something you hadn’t experienced from your caregiver, that may be something that you’re not offering in your parenting. Say a child growing up had a parent who accused them of things, or made parenting mistakes and weren’t able to apologize…maybe now in a relationship, they don’t recognize when it’s time to apologize. Or don’t know how to receive an apology, because they were never given one as a child.”
