Plenty of young children respond to serious illness of a parent by blaming the parent.
In their world mother and father are god-like beings who can do anything- then they suddenly "choose" to become sick. It scary, and the child expresses his fear the same way he would if mom was yelling at him.
I've seen quite a few children respond just like Jinta in real life.
