Every parent knows that teaching children to say “I’m sorry” isn’t just about words — it’s about building understanding, empathy, and respect within the family. But for many kids, especially between the ages of 10 and 12, apologies can feel confusing or forced.
That’s exactly why I wrote Why and When We Say Sorry to Mom — a gentle, practical guide designed to help children truly understand what it means to apologize and how it can strengthen family bonds.
In daily life, children might accidentally hurt their mom’s feelings without even realizing it. Maybe they talk back when they’re frustrated, ignore her advice, or forget to appreciate her efforts. Often, they don’t know when they should say sorry — or how to do it in a sincere way.
This book helps them explore:
✔ The true meaning of saying sorry — showing we care, not just admitting fault
✔ When apologies are needed, even for small mistakes or misunderstandings
✔ How moms have feelings too, even when they seem strong
✔ Practical, easy-to-follow steps to apologize with both words and actions
The book also includes bonus challenges, real-life apology stories, and reflection sections to help kids grow their emotional awareness and take responsibility for their actions.
Teaching children how to apologize properly isn’t about making them feel guilty — it’s about helping them understand the power of kindness, respect, and repairing relationships.
Why and When We Say Sorry to Mom offers simple, relatable lessons that any child can apply in daily life — creating a more loving, understanding family environment.
If you believe every child should learn how to express care through words and actions, this book is for you.
