personal responsibility

Does it seem that we are becoming less responsible for our own actions? I'm tired of hearing people blame, for example the government not doing enough or having enough laws. Here's an example in my area. We haven't had a very cold fall so most of the lakes and ponds or other bodies of water have not formed ice thick enough to walk on. Some kid (old enough to know better) fell through, was saved so he's OK, but his mom said the city should have put a fence around this little body of water. That's ridiculous! Maybe she should have told the kid not to go on the ice! If she did and he still went, then he's lucky and hopefully he learned something. Anyone else feel the same way?
