Where is the accountability?

I feel frustrated when I am forced to help people who somehow don't want to take accountability for their own actions.

As a teacher, I see it everyday in the classroom. Students will say they couldn't do their homework because their parents came home late. It doesn't sink in their heads that the assignment was given to them two days ago.

The beautiful part is listening to adults who have no clue why their lives are not the way they planned it. Could it be that they keep making the wrong choices?

Where did the blame game start? When did it start? Do kids learn this from their parents? When does the game end?

I am surrounded by a bunch of whiners! It is so irritating to have to constantly see adults hide from reality. I can't even be online without having to hear an old man in his 40s complain about how his life is so terrible because other people don't give into his demands. A man in his 40s who is an unemployed father. He thinks it is a big deal that he calls his son every now and then. What does he want? A cookie!

Then I have to hear another grown adult whine about how he can't meet a deadline. For goodness sake! The deadline was two months ago! Again more blah blah blah!

It is not that difficult to take accountability for our actions. If we can't do something by a certain time we shouldn't offer to do it. If we don't do what we need to do as an adult because we choose not to do it then we can't complain about like a bunch of spoiled brats.

Ahhh, I feel better.
If you don't like what I said...I can always say it wasn't me but someone else who made me do this.
HA HA HA
