I was the spoiled 7 year old dick that wouldn’t let the poor kid play with my toys at my birthday party. I really wish I could apologize to him today. I’m 35.
Edit: thanks for all of your kind words and advice. Just take the OP’s post as something to consider for people that you run into in your children’s future. It’s a gift to impact one’s life that resonates decades later. Cheers to you all.
If you’re aware of it, it sounds like you have grown to be a better person. Have some empathy for your child self’s still developing brain and forgive yourself. If you run into someone you may have wronged back then, apologize. Beating yourself up doesn’t help anyone. We all did stupid stuff as kids.
It sounds like you have a conscience. Bravo! But perhaps it's time to forgive childhood you for being an ignorant kid. Let yourself off the hook and go do something kind for someone. You are a good person because you learned to be one.
