Apologizing can be very difficult. It needs you to put aside your pride and admit to your faults. And when you do issue an apology, it's easy to make mistakes.
Making excuses
Apologizing is about admitting to your mistakes, not making excuses for them. Take a careful look at the part you played in the mistake, and sincerely admit that you are wrong.
Doing it via messages
It's important to apologize face to face if possible. Never use message to make an apology. A post on social media is not the same as a heartfelt visit. Allow the other person to hear your voice and see your facial expressions. A message is the worst option when it comes to expressing sincere regrets.
Saying “I'm sorry, bu.."
Adding a “but” to your apology is one of the worst ways to say you're sorry. When you use the word "but", it negates or cancels everything that goes before it...
Apologizing too late (or too early)
Waiting too long to apologize can make a bad situation worse.
Do it sooner rather than later. If you do or say something harmful, offer an apology straightaway. However, apologizing too quickly can also be a problem. Sometimes people need a minute to cool off, and if someone's trying to chase them to give them an apology, they will probably not accept it.
Expecting immediate forgiveness
Once you have offered your apologies, don't expect a quick repair. It may take more time than you would like, but by doing the right thing, you have a new start in your relationships. In the end, your relationships can come back stronger than they were before.

I was visiting my sister Mary, who has two boys, aged seven and five. They were throwing a ball around the living room. She asked them several times to stop, but they didn't listen to her. Finally, one of the boys threw the ball and knocked over a lamp. She shouted loudly at them for several minutes. Then, she sent them to their room. She looked at me and said, "They never listen to me."
Carmen
Dear Carmen,
Your sister needs to be clear to her children what behavior she expects. She should tell her boys, "Don't throw the ball in the house. If you throw the ball again, I'm going to take it." Then, she needs to do what she says. Her boys will soon learn to listen to her.
Dr. Bob
Dear Dr. Bob,
I walked into my two-year-old daughter's bedroom and found her coloring on the wall again with her crayons. I told her, "No! No! Never write on the wall with your crayons. You can only write on paper." My husband thought I was too easy on her and that she needed a spanking (打屁股). What is your opinion?
Debbie
Dear Debbie,
You dealt with the situation well. Children this age are too little to understand the relationship between their actions and a spanking. Use this as a warning; it's time to babyproof your home. Now that your little one is more active and curious (好奇的), what else can she reach? Check her room and your home for crayons, paints, medicines, cleaning products, and other things that might interest her.
Bob
