Re: When things went bad thread
I agree, people can tell when you are sincere - let them know you are sorry for what you said. Also, If your son was present when it was said - you should also let him know that it was not appropriate and that you are taking the proper steps to rectify it. That way you both are learning a lesson - he will learn that there are times to be the bigger man and appologize, even if it can be humiliating.
I commend you for admitting when you are wrong!!

Re: When things went bad thread
I don't think you need to apologize for being "defensive" about your son, just apologize for doing it in a "mean" way?
