One thing that has really been bothering me for the last decade or so is the inability of mankind to take responsibility for its actions. It is never "my" fault or "our" fault; it is always "your" fault or "their" fault! Other common things that you will hear are I can't help it because...
- I was born this way.
- I didn't know
- everyone else does it
- I was made to do it
- all the ads on television and other media are responsible
- he said it was okay
- I have ADD or ADHD or Amnesia or any other medical condition
- I forgot
- I'm not very responsible
- I was drinking, doing drugs, or ...
Yes, some of these things may make your life more difficult, but you made a choice of some kind and that choice is where your responsibility lies. You chose to drink, or take drugs, or be irresponsible, or are forgetful, or listen to those ads, etc., etc.
There are also legitimate
reasons that somethings happen, but let's all quit making
excuses!
