A sincere apology, an Im sorry and a hug really goes a long way. Explain to what you said may have been out of anger, and you would never intentionally hurt her, and if you cant face her write her a letter, reread before you give it to her.

Apologize

If you already acknowledged about your mistake, you should be brave enough to apologize. If you're embarrassed to do that in person, you can choose to buy a card and write down what you really feel. Or anything in that nature, to put it in a more comfortable setting for your mom.

think about what happened that made you angry. you can always stay true to the feeling without putting someone else down by saying i feel angry when you -----. now that it's after the fact, and you regret expressing your anger in a way that hurt your mom's feelings, try saying that you're sorry, talk about why you were feeling angry, and make a commitment to express your anger in a healthier way next time by talking about your feeling rather than putting down the other person.

Sincerely apologize. Recognize why you said it. Promise never to do such a thing again and tell her you love her.

Just go to her and say "Mum--sorry I had a stupid attack--I'm sorry". (A hug wouldn't hurt either).

let it blow over and start thinking two more seconds before saying another thing to another person. do this all the time with everyone you know and you will save yourself from having to live with that kind of regret. good luck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Apologize. A sincere "I'm sorry" might be all she needs to hear.
