You aren t going to be a perfect role model and you are going to make mistakes. Look for progress, not perfection. Be kind to yourself when you make a mistake and treat it as a learning experience. Children can get the impression that their parents never do anything wrong. This is not always good for the child because when the child makes a mistake, she may be really hard on herself.
Mistakes are healthy ways to show a child that no one is perfect.
Apologize for the mistake and move on. You always have tomorrow. Every day is an opportunity for parents to listen to their children.
