I’m not to sure about your last point. Adam blamed God, indirectly, and Eve, by saying, “The woman You put here with me gave to me, and I did eat.” Eve was deceived, but Adam knew it was wrong, and did it anyway.

Eve was deceived because she didn’t check with Adam before she took the fruit and ate. The Fall began with Eve, being deceived does not absolve her of her failure to fellowship with her husband. I’m simply pointing out that the Bible makes the same point that the author of the article is making. She was destroying her marriage because she was deceived about herself and her husband and was rejecting his input about the children (and likely other things). I’m not suggesting that Adam isn’t culpable, but if you ignore the fact that the Bible records that the Enemy was the craftiest of all the creatures and he started with the woman, then you will fall for his trap repeatedly. Not to put too fine a point on it but I am merely restating 1 Timothy 2:10-15.
