You did something wrong. Now it’s time to apologize. You really don’t want to say I’m sorry. However, your mom says you must. Here are ten insincere apologies coming from a child.

1. I’m sorry that I stepped on your foot. I really meant to hit you in the face but I tripped.
2. I’m sorry for making a fool of myself at the dinner table. Next time I’ll only do it during the piano recital.
3. I’m sorry for calling you a stupid jerk. I only mean that you were stupid.
4. I’m sorry for not brushing my teeth. I just thought that it was cool looking having black between my teeth from the Oreo cookies.
5. I’m sorry for yelling at the top of my lungs. Next time I’ll shout a little more quietly.
6. I’m sorry for not doing my homework. I’m sorry for my poor grades. I’m sorry for my poor attitude. Gee, this is fun. I could go on and on. I’m really a lost cause.
7. I’m sorry for embarrassing you in the public. Next time I’ll just embarrass you in private.
8. I’m sorry for wanting just candy at the grocery store. Next time I’ll request cookies, ice cream, and pie as well.
9. I’m sorry for all the dirty dishes. I forgot to give you the dirty spoons, forks, and knives as well.
10. I’m sorry for breaking your vase. I don’t think it’s such a big deal though. After all, it’s not as bad as the dent that I left in your new car.
