Does this sound okay for an apology?

@questionWeaver We told her she was trusted and that she meant a lot to us all. Does that count for nothing?

@Fenella hollow words are still hollow

Go locate a priest to discuss the method of apologizing

It is well understood ... I am sure, at some point, somebody educated you on the way to ask for forgiveness and suggest a path forward

If not, then go to the source of forgiveness and get a lesson or too.

It is easy!

@Fenella apologies, grace and forgiveness were brought to the world's attention by Christ. The catholic churches, for over 1800 years have brought the message forward.

The message has worked into legal systems around the world

To apologize

(1) Acknowledge specificly what you did wrong

(2) Provide an assurance you will not do it again

(3) Agree to cure any damages

(4) [b]ASK TO BE FORGIVEN
[/b]
(5) Suggest a path forward



This is not complicated.

They go over this in Catholic Church service everytime communion is held.

This is how to apologize

Anything else is not an apology.

There is no clause 4, section 5.1.4 that says - Skip the above and tell the nanny she is valued.

@Poppies Thank you !

@1234567890a Agreed but we won't be seeing her until next week.

@1234567890a 👌👏❤️

@Fluffybull Why not?

...what did he accuse her of?@Fenella If I started having doubts about a babysitter, I would apologize and not bring her back..

@Fenella ...many parents’ instincts are true

@InHeaven It was nothing like that. She got the wrong end of the stick but it was my partners fault. We trust her.

@bijouxbroussard Thank you. We were worried that last part sounded a little passive
