The phrase I'm sorry is one of the most impacting phrases in child development. It's true power reveals itself when a parent says it to a child. It tells a child 'you're important to me, so much so, that I will humble myself to you and admit my mistakes.'
A child learns they deserve respect. It also teaches them that everyone makes mistakes, but when we do, we need to own up to our mistakes in order to reconcile them, not matter how big or small we think them to be.
