About This Quote

When people assign blame, it's a sign of insecurity. The more people feel vulnerable or insecure, the more likely they are to assign blame to someone else. In this case, the teenager who stole from his parents is saying, "I'm upset with myself because I felt the need to take from my parents. But I didn't steal because I wanted to do that."
