I would try in the most kindly way to show her/him that any problem has a solution and having the courage to admit your own mistakes is a step forward in resolving the problem.We're all humans,we all make mistakes,nobody is perfect..except me ROFL(..just kidding).By admitting a mistake you can be sure that at least one of your friends will try to help and get you out of the mess.2 heads think better than one..and it will prove to you that friendship is more than meeting with someone few times a week and have a cup of coffee.It means sharing also the tears and the bad times,not just the joy and laughter.
Trying to make a friend see who she/he really is a hard task.You may not succeed at first(well..if that friend is blaming others for his/her own mistake you can be sure that it will take some time and a lot of patience to make them change a little).But it sure worth the effort.
Take care.Hugs

I actually have that sort of friend. What I do is just let them explain why they blame that someone. I her talk about her complaints about the person and when she does finish, I would tell her what I think about the situation.
One particular situation was when she started blaming a person about that person being too arrogant and didn't instruct her about her duties during a wedding. After all her whines, I told her eventually that maybe the person assumed that since you've always been assigned to that part of the wedding, you should have know and prepared for it.
I know there are a lot of people who don't accept their own mistake, I sometimes (well most of the times I guess) do that too, I'm guilty of it, it's like because of pride. That's why no person would ever accept his/her fault until proven guilty. We always point at another person when we commit a mistake, I think that's human nature.

There are indeed a few friends of mine, who cannot own up their faults and start blaming others all the time.I sometimes ignore their comments but if they are at it repeatedly,then I make it a point to make them realise that it was their own mistake and that they cannot blame anybody else all the time.

When the friend is blaming others,I will tell him that it is bad to blaming others,it will have a very bad influence on our relationships.So I will stop him,this is good for him.
