Think for a minute. When your relationship with your spouse (配偶) hits a rocky patch, do you say he’s lo blame? If you have a had day at work，is it because you have a “hard boss”? If everything that happens in your life is someone else’s fault, John Miller, personal responsibility expert and author of QBQ (The Question Behind the Question), says you may be teaching your teen to play the blame game.

If your life centers around finger pointing, personally, you’re not accountable—you’re playing the blame game. Are you late to work only because of your kids? If you’re passed over for a promotion, it is because your boss is a“jerk (蠢人)”？Thoughts like those are classic signs of the blame game.

Parents who constantly point fingers don’t just do it to their spouses, co-workers and friends. They do it to their children too.

Paula Jackson, a mother of two in Atlanta，says she’s always found a way to get out of things by blaming other people. She’s found that most of the time the blame falls on her children. “Even if it’s something I know I’m responsible for, I’11 find myself saying, ‘Oh my kids did this’ or ‘They didn’t do that’ ,” she says.

Miller says when parents don’t accept responsibility, it causes them to lose their effectiveness as role models for their teens.“As the primary role models for our teens, when we behave poorly by blaming and complaining, we are missing the chance to have a positive and powerful impact on our kids, ” he says. “When we don’t accept responsibility and our kids see that, then they don’t have to accept responsibility. ”
