One day, many years back, my daughter (maybe around 7 y.o. too ) misbehaved several times, and no amount of persuation or bribing was working to make her behave. I did the same to her, only took her outside the apartment door and told her we don't want her anymore. A few minutes later her mom opened the door, got her in and asked her to apologize.

I am now 60+. Daughter is married with a son, and I swear to God I am not able to forget or forgive myself for doing that. I have apologized to her a few years back, but still cannot forgive myself to this day.

This story.
I feel for the boy. But I am speechless !!

BTW, my daughter still remembers the story.
I cam just imagine what is going in the boy's head.
