In assembly we considered why we sometimes find it so challenging to do this. I shared a few stories from my childhood and also some of the things I had reflected on since that time. These were as follows:
When I was cross and angry with my
parents, it was sometimes
because they were right and I was wrong.
When I was really young I trusted that my
parents knew better
than I did. But when I began to grow up, I
thought at times that I always knew better.
I was wrong!
Saying sorry was hard but it was always the right thing to do.
Despite my behaviour, my frustrations and
my disagreements
my
parents never stopped loving me.
