As they say that a mother has to teach good things to kids.
I am trying to do so by making an example.
Owning up when you make a mistake.
I have been making a mistake and been unfair to you.
Asking you to clean up the room alone when I know others contributed in making a mess there.
Scolding you for being uncouth when I know you are merely copying others and it is acceptable for them to be so.
Expecting you to behave yourself nicely when no one else is doing that.
I know this isn't fair and I promise that I will not do that again but at the same time I will also not step back in ensuring that you learn good things and avoid picking up bad habits.
