oh my family is one of the emotional drama kinds.a big issue crops out of nothing and there is lot of tears going on everytime...they get hurt at absolutely nothing.they cry while watching daily soaps and movies on television.
i am just unable to handle their hyper-sensitivity...how do you react to such people?

oh ! i would love them to be bit logical but the very concept seems alien to them.it gets more messed up if i try to show them the logic for i become the cruel and heartless one.and i don't know how to react when i am given such a tag.

We are the same in our family. After watching every one at family gatherings, my husband has started saying that my family loves crying as If some child is going out or coming back home for holidays, all aunts can be seen crying and hugging the child. Crying while watching emotional scenes is also common in our family and we do not forget to carry handkerchiefs while going for cinemas. In one way crying is also good for releasing stress from body. Because after crying u tend to laugh easily. Well! it is my personal experience.

well i do agree that crying helps vent out hurtful emotions but overdose of anything makes other miserable. i would like them to laugh as frequently as they cry.

Did you say them what you think? If yes but it's still work, there are a way that you treat them like babies. Did you ever babysit a 2-3 years old baby? Trying to guess when they are going to cry, to feel hurt and change the subject into their favorites. This way can use when you understand people in your family and have patient enough to do that.
If it still not work, I don't have any other ways to suggest to you besides going away when they show the drama. ^^
