aw

Aiko

ahhh almost stuck the landing but she tried

Lonk

I mean at least she’s trying? But yeah an apology is more than deserved

Chroonzy

yeahh…. there it is… thank you for trying anyhoo…. that being considered I always appreciate the realism of the comic— similar to Stuart’s arc, the characters don’t just magically change after an epiphany, they just have more depth and nuance and I really love that touch

Sauul

Damn Yeah

Juliaaaaaaaa

Well At least theres some improvement

Its a start even if it feels like she’s making excuses here to avoid a actual apology

It's hard when they do the work and get all the way up to the point of actually being honest with themselves, only to feel the need to pull back from real accountability in order to protect their ego. It can go many different ways too. I have someone in my life that is very quick to apologize, but never digs into or reflects on what exactly they did that they are apologizing for. They just know that the fastest way to getting through their mistake is to grit their teeth and apologize to get through the issue, then they don't have to think about it anymore. Of course, this leads to repeated offences quite often. Oh the things we do to protect our ego!!! Fantastic work as always!

She’s making progress that’s better then nothing but man maggie still deserve an apology

This is interesting, because unlike Maggie and most readers, I actually think mom did apologize here. Oh, I agree it's not a perfect apology. It does make it harder to swallow since she can't seem to bring herself to say the magic words "I'm sorry" or "I apologize" that we typically hear and expect when someone apologizes. And she definitely talked about herself instead of talking about how what she was doing hurt her daughter. All that is totally fair and real, I get that. Here's where I differ: I think that despite what we're taught when we're kids, saying "I'm sorry" is not the thing that defines an apology. It's my view that an apology is: 1) acknowledgment you did something wrong, 2) expressing remorse about that, and 3) expressing intention to fix things going forward. I think mom just hit all of those notes and that means, by definition, she just apologized. I think the words "I'm sorry" are just shorthand for communicating this; it says: "I did something wrong, I feel remorse about it, and I want you to know I'm aware of that, I'm willing to admit it, and I want to repair the damage." But I think you can also just express those things with different words, and have that count as an apology too. I think mom just said everything that sorry says without using the word. And in my book... that counts. Oh, I still get it though. I recognize that if you can't bring yourself to say "I'm sorry" or "I apologize" somewhere along the way, it is likely that your acknowledgment of fault, expression of contrition, and resolution to change, no matter how sincerely intended, will come across as incomplete, grudging, or insincere. And I think that's what's happened here. Mom's got it so ingrained in her after decades of raising kids that she needs to retain her authority and not let the rugrats run all over her that she can't actually say "I'm sorry" even when she's very literally expressing remorse, acknowledging fault, and resolving the fix things going forward. And that means Maggie, and most readers, don't really feel like she's apologized at all.

Baby steps, I suppose. It's a step in the right direction, but it sounds like she's still dodging the core issue that started the divide. It's probably an issue that she is not fully ready to talk about, but we'll see if she holds to her words.
