Meg would like you all to know that the apology has yet to come which means that Meg will still continue along the path of moving away and never looking back in just over two weeks' time.

I'm in the camp of Meg accepting the apology. Meg knows it's fake, the family member in question knows it's fake and probably others members of Megs family do too but it would be a bad idea to reject it. Meg needs to keep the moral high ground and by refusing to accept the apology it could look bad on her. If she accepts it and just moves on with her life without giving it the time of day nobody can come back and criticise her and if something does goes wrong she comes out of it looking like a peacemaker and the family member ends up looking a tool for apologising then acting a prat again.

Whether family,friend or just someone I know,if someone is horrible to me for no reason and wouldn't apologise themselves but have to be guided to do so,then they would be cut out of my life completely.

I am a very forgiving person near all the time but if attacked by anyone for any reason that is unjustified then that would be that bridge between myself and that person destroyed for good.
Fortunately I haven't had that happen in family but I have at Uni with someone who was there,I just cut them out of my life 100%.

I cannot advise what anyone else would do but for my own peace of mind that is what I would do, if I cannot believe someone or feel I cannot trust them then they are not part of my life anymore, whoever they may be.

For me a false apology is even worse than no apology.
