RE: [OTlist] teaching module

[Lehman, David]

Thanks Jodi....you ARE right.  May I try again?  I do not feel sorry for "creating any emotion of defensiveness or otherwise in Danieele....it is her choice to feel the way she does about my post.

 

Please forgive me for using the request for an apology correctly.

 

Have a great day!

This is a pet peeve of mine.  I can't stand when people say   " I'm sorry if you . . .  " In my not so humble opinion, sorry should be given unconditionally, as in " I'm sorry,  I was in the wrong and I'm sorry."  If you don't feel you were in the wrong, I don't think you should apologize because I don't think you are remorseful.  The only apology that counts with me is one that does not have a qualifying phrase attached.
