[blparent] an apology?

[Veronica Smith]

I agree and disagree with that statement.  You are right, a forced appologee
doesn't mean squatt, but if a parent forces an appologee the child knows the
parent is in charge.   But it is always better for the kid to do it
themselves and this is why I pondered even telling Kiana's grandmother about
what happened.  But Gab wanted me to.  So I did. V

Yeah, a forced appology isn't worth squat. 
Glad Gabbs and her friend have kissed and made up. That skill will serve
both of them well.

It's better when kids apologize on their own instead of getting forced
to by adults.  Kiana probably really meant the apology since it came
from her directly.
