b'Should we insist that our kids apologize or say \\u201cI\\u2019m sorry\\u201d? I actually don\\u2019t. However, both my kids have come to apologize and express authentic empathy in their early years (without my demanding it). They have learned to do so naturally through their environment.\\nWhen it comes to teaching manners and empathy, we can cue our kids to use certain expressions. But often it\\u2019s not about teaching. It\\u2019s about exposing them to things like manners and empathy in their influential relationships with adults. Children learn better through exposure in their natural environment. So instead of direct teaching, we can show them how it\\u2019s done ourselves.\\nTimestamps:\\n\\n1:18 // Something Simple I\\u2019m Loving: Knowledge Encyclopedia\\n\\n\\n2:51 // About our big book overhaul: Reading Aloud + Our Book Overhaul\\n\\n\\n5:45 // Today\\u2019s Sponsor: Care/Of\\n\\n\\n7:04 // Today\\u2019s Question: Should you make kids apologize?\\n\\nThe post Q&A | Should you make kids apologize? appeared first on Simple Families.'
