Answer 1

Yes, the Nightingale was herself to blame for her tragic end. She was gullible and failed terribly to see through the frog's evil intentions. She lacked intelligence and quite readily believed that that frog was an authority on music who had generously accepted to train her. Instead, she felt obliged to him. She allowed the frog to exploit her commercially. Driven by a desire to be a sensational singer, she sang for excessively long hours and thus fully exhausted herself. Had she shown a better sense of self-confidence and put her foot down she would not have been exploited by the dominating frog and her life could have been saved.
