Parents Told Apologising to Children Builds Secure Attachment
Original: Apologising to your child does not undermine your authority. Research shows it builds the most secure attachment of all.
Parenting writers are pushing back on the belief that saying sorry to your child weakens parental authority. Citing attachment research, they argue that a genuine apology from a parent models accountability and actually strengthens the parent-child bond, producing the most secure attachment style. Commenters in parenting circles are sharing the advice as a counter to old-school discipline myths.
Why now: Ongoing debate about modern parenting approaches and attachment theory keeps this advice circulating
