#HighlySensitivePeople: Why don’t you take responsibility for your actions?

Do you take responsibility for your actions? I'm frustrated because it seems that people don't take responsibility for anything. There's finger pointing and blaming others for things that are their own fault. Here are some reasons why people may struggle with taking responsibility for their actions: Fear of Consequences: People might avoid taking responsibility because they fear the consequences of their actions, such as punishment, criticism, or damage to their reputation.
