[quote=Anonymous]You can call it what you want, and lots of kids do this, but I think of it as “shifting blame” because the child doesn’t want to take personal responsibility or feels like they screwed up and that is uncomfortable, so they blame others. Lots of SN kids feel like they screw up a lot, and some of them do this. With an NT kid, you can just tell it to them straight. With some SN kids, you need to try to understand why they do it, point it out to them, and then help them understand what went wrong and how to avoid it next time. Over and over. Of course, being unpleasant about it is not okay, and consequences apply, but it helps if the adult understands why and how to help. [/quote]
