People Pleaser?
We become people pleasers for many reasons. Not only can we unlearn this tendency, but we can foster a sense of independence and value in our children while doing so!
If your child apologizes, but you don't forgive, they won't feel like their mistakes are forgivable, and may keep apologizing and look to others for approval and self-worth.
Rephrasing the conditions you have for your childs' behavior in a positive way allows them to do the right thing for the right reasons, instead of simply just doing what we tell them to make us happy.
