The assignment of blame does not solve problems. I see it as a peripheral step to finding solutions to problems.

If a little kid comes home from school with an F on his math test, you could either waste a bunch of time blaming the math book or the teacher, or, you could spend your time helping the kid learn the math so they don't fail the next test. The first option is a waste of time while the second option uses that time to move forward.

Is this more clear, or shall I try to explain a fourth time?



Yeah, explain it a 4th time for me , please....

If the math kid came home w/ an F, maybe the kid can't learn math good.

Hypography?
