Teenagers often rail against their own realizations. That’s what “the dog ate my homework” is all about. It’s hard to admit a mistake, and that the mistake was your own responsibility, and not let that destroy your self-image. This requires learning, simultaneously, to hold yourself accountable to always try to do what’s right AND to not expect more from yourself than is human. It also requires cutting other people some slack, which Christians in particular seem reluctant to do.
