If at first you don't succeed, blame your parents.

If at first you don't succeed, blame your parents.

Summary

This quote sarcastically suggests that rather than taking responsibility for one's own failures, it is easier to shift blame onto parents. It highlights the tendency of some individuals to avoid accountability by attributing their shortcomings or lack of success to their upbringing or parental influence. However, in reality, success or failure often depends on personal efforts, choices, and perseverance rather than solely blaming external factors like parents.
