I ask my kids this question before they go to bed, not every night, but most nights. “Did I do anything today that I need to apologize to you about?” They pause. Think. Tap their finger on their chin and relive the day. Then either they say, “no.” Or they say, “yes, you….” Then I own it and apologize. It also frees them to apologize to me over any lingering regretful moments they’re processing. Try it. You’ll like it. They will, too.
