1 Answer

Answer :

“Thank you for apologizing” or “I forgive you”. They can also add, “I hope that you do not [fill in with specifics] to me again. That was very hurtful.” I also coach children (and adults) to not say “that’s OK”. Some self reflection and her own apology may be appropriate, depending on the circumstances.
