1. Many parents feel that their respect is reduced when they apologize to children.
2. They also feel that children may make fun of them, or will not take their words seriously in future.
3. But the fact is that children respect those elders who accept their mistakes readily, rather than those who believe that elders never make mistakes.
4. There should be no shame in accepting your mistakes responsibly, because by doing this you lighten the burden of your chest.
5. Apart from this, children also learn that mistakes can be made by anyone, and it is more important to focus on improving themselves after accepting them.
6. In doing so, mutual trust and love between elders and children will also increase, thereby strengthening their relationships.
7. Along with telling children about your mistakes, explain what was wrong with your behavior, as this will prevent them from making those mistakes.
8. If children are shocked and unhappy with your conduct, then also tell them that you will try that it will not happen again in future, and avoid repeating those mistakes.
