Why the Blame?

We live in a time of speculation and blame. It's a terrible way to live. Today I was reading some of the articles on my computer's news reel, and blame was everywhere. There was an article about two elementary aged children who got trapped in a hope chest and died. A tragic situation. All the comments were blaming the parents. Another was about an airplane landing at the wrong airport. Again, everyone blaming, no one saying praise be to God everyone is okay. One person actually commented that these pilots must have learned to fly at the same place as our pilots who were flying on 9/11! Really?!? Blaming our pilots who were killed on 9/11 for that tragedy?? I don't get it people. Why does there always have to be someone to blame? (With the exception of 9/11 which was clearly not an accident.) Why can't there ever just be an accident. As a Catholic mother, I find myself repeatedly trying to instill this value into my children. In a household with eleven kids there is always something going wrong, and with that there is always someone pointing a finger. I ask someone to pick up a dish that was left on the table, I get, "that's not my bowl." or "That's her chore." A picture gets knocked down and broken and there are fingers pointing and voices raised as a line is drawn and each child takes his or her place on their side of the situation. Siblings jump in to defend and prosecute when they weren't even witnesses to the event! Sometimes I could scream with frustration. But the fact is, I usually can't scream. I'm usually surrounded by little people who get very scared when I scream. So waht's a mother to do?
