Who can we blame for our mistakes?
Can we blame our parents?
Our siblings may be?
People at school?

A few times you may be saying yes, but the truth of it is That the only person you can blame for your mistakes is YOU and only YOU.

NO ONE else is at fault for your screw ups.

I have made many mistakes and I have always tried to find someone to blame other than who was really at fault, me.
