Discuss these questions with a partner:

mistakes

e. Look at some reasons why you should apologize. Decide if you agree with them and why.

Apologizing when you've broken a rule of social conduct -- from cutting in line to

breaking the law -- re-establishes that you know what the "rules" are, and you

agree that they should be upheld. This allows others to feel safe knowing you

agree that hurtful behavior isn't OK.

 No, because also rules are unfair, like the expensive that is the service of Transmilenio,
then the people decide sneak in the station .
Apologies re-establish dignity for those you hurt. Letting the injured party know

that you know it was your fault, not theirs, helps them feel better, and it helps

them save face.

 Yes, because should not step over people damaging their dignity

Apologizing helps repair relationships by getting people talking again, and makes

them feel comfortable with each other again

 Yes, because if we care about real people, we must accept our mistakes, correct them, not
to lose

A sincere apology allows you to let people know you're not proud of what you did,

and won't be repeating the behavior. That lets people know you're the kind of

person who is generally careful not to hurt others, and puts the focus on your

better virtues, rather than on your worst mistakes.

• if we agree that it does see the values and ethics of the people
