There is no question here, and this post is incredibly vague. What is she supposed to apologize for? Perhaps she is owed an apology, or perhaps she is the type to easily get offended, but with a one-sentence post that is so vague, there is no way for us to know and be able to properly respond.

what is your question?

You can say "I am sorry you feel that way. That was not my intention" and go from there.

Her age, whether or not she’s married and whether or not she has kids is completely irrelevant.

Demanding an apology from someone is immature, but is there something you should apologize for? If you don’t believe you have anything to apologize for, is there anything you can do to help heal your relationship?

If the two of you had an argument, don’t forget that one of the biggest mistakes people making is forgetting what it really means to “win.” Causing the other person pain and forcing them to admit they are wrong is not a win. A true win is finding a way to come back together in the end - to stop being upset with each other - to truly listen to each other, consider each other’s perspectives and grow closer together through better understanding and mutual respect. Not every argument ends that way, but that would be a true win.

Apologize for what?

She sounds like a brat with an entitled attitude to me.

That attitude won't get her too far in the team world, in time she'll be a lonely old soul.

For me? That would be a no. Your daughter sound like she either has mental health issues or has come to believe that she's more important than you. I would let her know that you love her but at your age you don't want to have to cater to someone else's every whim. She'll be pissed and let everyone know you are a crappy mom. Don't worry about it. She'll either figure it out or not but at least you won't be part of the drama.

Can you give us more information? Unless all you want is validation for your feelings, we don't have much to go on here.

As I write this, you have 7 responses, most of which ask you to please explain, add to your post, and ask a real question. So far, you haven't done that. Do you know how? Click the "edit my question" button and put in some specifics. Otherwise, it sounds like you just want people to say she's wrong and you're right, with no background.

I don't have any idea what her marital status or the absence of children have to do with this. I have no idea what she's angry about or what she wants an apology for. If you want help or advice, you'd best tell us a lot more of the story.

Welcome to mamapedia, J..

You raised her. You doted and waited on her and did exactly as she said.

Now what does she want you to apologize for? Spoiling her? You don't owe her an apology for that. you owe others around her an apology for not teaching her better.

Personally I love giving apologies and honestly I always have at least a small part in any disagreement. You didn't give many details but I would say "You are my daughter and are so precious to me. You matter to me and our relationship matters to me. I am so sorry if I have done anything to jeopardize that and I appreciate the change to try to make it right." Honestly for me I can say that with all sincerity because there is always something I can do to improve a relationship.
