Practice with me "Oh, sweetie, I'm sorry you feel that way" "Yes, it is horrible" "Oh, how sad" "I see how that would make you feel bad"

etc, etc, etc. blah blah blah.

No defending, no explaining, no kowtowing, begging, pleading, pleasing, etc.

You are strong sugar. You can handle this with grace and dignity. I have every confidence in that.
