Can Guilt be Constructive?
Guilt per se may not be constructive, unless it motivates you toward right or moral action or behavior. Feeling guilty may cause you to re-prioritize.
For example if you are a working mom and juggling work and home responsibilities you may feel guilty that you are too tired and busy with other responsibilities to spend "play-time" with your children. Guilt may help you to re-evaluate and change your situation. ~ Mary
