Is there no limit to stupidity?

I had to laugh when I saw this story, about a mother who bought a joke sweat-shirt for her little boy, with the slogan ‘I’m the reason there is a naughty list’. Not surprisingly her son was upset when he read the slogan and, she says ‘Completely blamed it on me’ – well yes – who else?
However she is trying to blame it on the shop for selling it, saying they should ‘review their policy’ about selling these items for children who can read. Honestly does she actually want someone else to do the thinking for her?
Thankfully her little boy does seem to be more intelligent than his Mum so I guess there may be a little bit of hope for the next generation.

Clearly this mom is not the brightest bulb. She is very clearly part of the ME generation....everyone else is to blame for any mistakes she might make.

Blaming the shop for selling something she didn't even have to buy? Unbelievable.

This article is a perfect example of everything that is wrong with our society today. Nobody wants to take accountability for their actions; it is always somebody else's fault for everything that happens and every decision we make in our lives. I guess you just can't fix stupid.

@Fleura That is very true, I wanted the same thing growing up. I can tell you, both of my kids are not like that at all. They try to shun responsibility and independence as much as they can, now matter what values I try to instill in them. But I must admit, my own kids aren't quite as bad as most of their friends and peers. Every day I preach to them about taking responsibility and accountability for their actions. Sometimes it even seems to work with them, but it's still nothing like when we were growing up!
