The Reality Reports

Understanding The Blame Game: When something goes wrong, our first reaction is often to point fingers. This happens in marriages, friendships, families, and workplaces.  One person blames another, who then defends themselves by blaming back. Before you know it, you're trapped in a never-ending cycle where nobody takes responsibility and nothing gets fixed. The blame cycle works like this: Person A does something that upsets Person B. Person B gets angry and blames Person A.  Person A feels attacked and either blames Person B for overreacting or brings up something Person B did wrong last week. Round and round it goes, with each person getting more frustrated and defensive.
