I don't disagree .. although I think there is a difference between managing my expectations of a fully autonomous adult human being, and believing that a child should be in a position to apologise under the guidance of a parent ..
Maybe 'expect' is the wrong word to be using, and maybe in a civilised society we tend towards the belief that people should act with proper decorum ..
The imposition of manners and proper decorum is the business of society. Under such societal guidance, when outcomes with which I disagree are manifest, has society errored or is something else happening? Something that is not to my taste may not be wrong, but that doesn’t mean I will eat it, or even feed it to those I love.
If one's expectation leads to an outcome of disagreeable quality, is it not simply a case of the imperfect union between contradictory thoughts and/or actions, ie being human? Maybe .. I don't know ..
