If the kid was exploited by his parents as you speculate despite their denials, forcing his apology is a more exploitive act on the part of the judge.
Interesting point. I've never really been a fan of forced apologies anyway. An apology is only real if one means it.

It seemed to me that the judge was forcing the young boy to genuflect at his bench. I'd advise the judge to take the backhanded apology and "move on".
