The adolescent, with his passion for sincerity, always respects a parent who admits that he is wrong, or ignorant, or even that he has been unfair or unjust.
And if you admit to being wrong, if you don't ignore the anomaly, if you face your errors head-on, then as Dostoevsky said, your errors can move you closer to the truth.
Football Coach Paul Bear Bryant advised, " When you make a mistake, there are only three things you should ever do about it: admit it, learn from it, and don't repeat it."
I hope this illustrates the rationale behind our actions and demonstrates our ability to take feedback, admit mistakes and make changes, all transparently, to the public.
