SUCCESSFUL FAILURE
The easiest response to give for failure is an excuse. Sometimes it is sugarcoated with sweet words to increase the market worth. Some give excuse with pride to showcase their ego and veil their shame, others give excuse laden with pity to appeal to the conscience of the would be buyer but it is almost impossible to solve a problem that you don’t admit. The other day I watched the recorded video of a mother where she blamed everyone but herself for the ignoble act of her daughter in a viral video of young students of a private school on a school trip that got tongues wagging. She blamed her daughter’s school for exposing her child to sexual violence and asked for justice for her ‘innocent’ daughter. What better way to describe successful failure in parenting?
