Say Sorry
If you have done something wrong or said the wrong things to your children, then you need to say that you are sorry. You need to do this even if your children seem to not accept your apology.

Love Language
You need to figure out what your child’s love language is. If it is time, then give them time. Listen to your child and see what they need.
Child’s View

If you want your relationship with your child to work, you will need to be positive and respond to them in a healthy way.
Giving Up
If you care about your child and your relationship, then you need to not give up. Keep working hard and hoping for something better to happen.
