15.We've all been blamed wrongly sometimes in our lives.How do we deal with it?Not with anger,hurt and tears,but in a collected way…
◇If you are wrongly blamed,let others know of the true state of things at once.Do it calmly and clearly-if you lose your temper,people will stop listening or become defensive.
◇If you don't find a sympathetic ear,find a person who will hear you out-a teacher,a parent,a friend,or a brother or sister who believes in you.
◇If you've been in trouble before,it may be easy for people to doubt you.So win your respect back in their eyes by behaving with honesty.
◇If what you are blamed for is something unimportant,sometimes it's better to smile it off.
◇If you've been blamed for something serious,it's important to put your side of the story forward quickly and truthfully.
Just remember:
◇Respect your friends'secret if you don't want to be wrongly blamed for making them known.
◇Don't blame others without first getting proof of their wrong doing.
◇Putting the blame on someone else for what you have done wrong is weakness.Admit your mistake quickly.
◇If someone else is wrongly blamed,stand up for that person.
◇Don't pass the responsibility to others
