MAC Wk 4 - Comments to Kenya

"When we teach children to accept responsibility, we must be mindful that we, too, must do the same. Accountability is the name of the game. We must indeed be the board that the game of life is being played on for every move our player takes, is one that we have caused whether through knowledgeable desire or ignorant indifference. I don't know about you but I prefer to be the control behind the pieces rather than just a pawn."
I love what you said about how we must do what we are teaching our children to do. It's no wonder that kids are always trying to blame things on other people. They learn how to do that from the adults around them! Even though new laws say that everyone must be accountable, people always want to blame someone else when things go wrong. Administrators blame teachers, teachers blame administrators, and it goes on and on. We can't fix a problem if we keep chasing our tails.
