‘ The fi rst to apologize is the bravest. The fi rst to forgive is the strongest. And the fi rst to forget
is the happiest.’ (Unknown)
Practices
In the Lord’s Prayer, we say, “Forgive us our sins, as we forgive those who sin against us.”
Turn to the words of the Lord’s Prayer when your child is faced with relationship confl icts between family and friends. This simple phrase reminds children that we forgive because God fi rst forgave us.
