But children must not be told that they have to forgive. That is outrageous.

Done in the right way, it is Biblical.

What's outrageous is seeing some who wishes to deny a child the wise teachings of the Biblical principles of forgiveness.

Even very damaged children are quite smart and able to understand those simple truths that can heal them.

With calmness and patience it can be done, and it is not "forcing"

Children can forgive very easily, much more so than adults from what I’ve seen.

Small wonder Jesus told us that we need to become like little children. It’s more than their innocence and ability to trust.
