So we have to apologize...we are so sorry...
JUST KIDDING!
Join the Squirrels today as they talk through over-apologizing, when it's appropriate to say you are sorry, and what the Bible has to say about apologizing.
Do you struggle with saying "sorry" when it isn't necessary? Or are you on the opposite end of the spectrum and find it difficult to apologize when you are wrong? Should we force our kids to apologize to teach them how to apologize correctly or does 'making them' apologize lessen the value of the apology?
This episode provides insight into the ramifications of over-apologizing and not apologizing when it may be necessary.
Taking references from the book 'The Power of Apology' by Beverly Engel, April and Carly have fun with a back and forth conversation about the psychology behind over-apologizing and the true intentions behind apologizing.
