Have you ever wrongly blamed someone else?

As I read your discussion I tried to think of a time where I blamed someone else for something that was partially my fault; I know that there has been many times throughout my life when I have done this but nothing came to mind at the moment... What I do feel bad about is, at times, not a lot, but there are times when I'm tired (didn't get enough sleep the nite before; I'm a bit of an insomniac and can't take anything for fear I won't hear CJ if he needs me)...and I get a little frustrated with him if he doesn't concentrate when we're working on his homework after school... I have raised my voice a bit and he starts to cry and then I immediately tell him that I'm sorry; that he's a great boy and that I'm very proud of him... I know we're just human, but there's no excuse for me to do that and I'm trying very hard to alleviate that issue. My son is such a precious miracle and I thank the Lord everyday that he's in my life. I have the responsiblity to help him grow into a productive human being who loves the Lord, etc. Thank you, Faith, for bringing this to the forefront of my mind so that I don't continue in this fashion...Bless you

Oh I have seen that episode more than once as I love "Little House on the Prairie". I thought Laura was wrong to blame Dr. Baker, though I could see why she blamed him as she needed someone to blame, and he was a prime target. Yes, I am guilty of wrongly blaming someone else. Especially my oldest. As he is autistic and can get into mischief, I sometimes assume that it is him when something bad happens. If I find out later that I wrongly accused him, I apologize and give him hugs. Even though he's non-verbal, he'll hug me back as if saying, "that's okay mom, I understand why you blamed me".

yeah yeah, i remember when i was 22 my mother lost her money then i thought its my brother that stoleit he was wrongly blamed but later i discover he wasent the one

Yeah there are many situation like this blaming someone else behalf of other and feeling bad after. THe person may be our friend or our own son even we have to regret for this..

Usually I blamed my lil sister if my room is mess but when I found out that she was tried to clean it up i Felt so guilty and I did apologize to her. Sometimes I treat her something just for make up.

sometimes we blame others its maybe case to cae basis that we didn't look what the things happend without knowing it specially you anger feeling to the person that involve the on that scenario,seldome for us to ask an apology most of the case is ignoring it

First it been ages since I watched "Little House on the Prairie”.. memories :) as for your question, it may have happened on minor things, of course I feel terrible when i realize it wasn't their fault but usually I don't like accusing people, pointing the finger or blaming anybody and I tend to accept people's excuses or denial even if I don't totally buy it.. unless something is really important I hate to make a fuss about it.

well.. yea.. it has happened with me sometimes wen I've wrongly blames someone else coz of misunderstanding.. but I think that's very natural coz misunderstandings happen with everyone! Isn't it? :)

i am just unable to remember, but i am generally very cautious not to heart others, i just cant hold it, if anyhow i blame someone who is really very close to my heart, i am sure i will apologize

well there are really been happening these kind of stuff that people do blame others for what they had not done but still they are considered as an guilty fellow between them. but guess what in the end some how every one do come to know that whats truth and whats not. at that time people really do feel that they had really made mistake and that really hurt the one who was been declared guilty . even in the part of law there are some decision were made which were not been judge correctly. but when they are been clearify then judge and the court do give their appologies to the person. there are many many occassion where these kind of this did happen and if you are really not gving appologies then you are really doing big mistake. because one day you will have to pay for it .

I know all about Little house,i have watched that show so many times...im sure that i have laid the blame on someone else in my life,I would probably be lying if i were to say I never did,however right now i cannot think of any certain time except for one....I was married for a lot of years to a man that i allowed to use me as a slave,I blamed him for doing it because he was wrong,but after seeing this about your son maybe i should really take the blame for allowing him to do that.,we are no longer togeather but its not because he used me as a slave...That was a problem for me though..I watched my mother cater to men,first my father,even though he wasn,t bad,he did things on his own,but after their divorce ,I saw her many times cater to men or a date or my brother which was younger than me...I somehow formed this idea in my head that it was my job ...I now know after reading this that I really allowed him to take advantage of me,I mean he wasn't sick,or unable to do for himself.It was just easier fo him to sit back on the couch,or lay on the bed and shout orders...That makes me feel better,not about myself,I culd kick me,but at least i can now take some of the blame if not all...

No, I never every blamed wrongly to someone else,because I think that every body can do mistake.

sometime it happen like that because of scarcity of proper information or to hide your week points we blame somebody else for this. its very easy to find a black dot in others eyes rather to see that we have the same also.moreever it is human sycology to blame others for the wrong they have done. well i have done done like that till now and hope thet this do not happen in future also.

i have been blamed for many things and i too have blamed many people for many things and have made some stupid comments which could get me in trouble but who cares, and life goes on

It's human nature to jump to conclusions, wrong or right. You just have to be a big enough person to apologize. I do it all the time, but I always make sure I apologize.
