Not My Fault (Teens)
Hello everybody, I hope you are happy and doing well. Recentlly, I noticed that teens (and many adults) refuse to accept responsibility for their mistakes.
Teens are blaming anybody and everybody. If they make poor grades in school, they blame the teacher. The teacher didn't tell them about homework assignments, or they turned in their homework assignments and the teacher lost (all) of their assignments. If the teen can't find their belongings someone else lost their belongings.
It's an endless stream of excuses and reasons, but it's never their fault. It happens so often that we overlook this terrible character flaw, and we really don't expect teenagers to accept responsibility, for their mistakes.
Let's expect more from teens. We can do our part and encourage teens to be more responsible for their mistakes. We can avoid saving them from the natural consequences of irresponsible behavior, and lets stop accepting excuses and reasons for misbehavior and poor performances.
What do you think?
