Life sucks!

Life is tough, just like today. I quarreled with my mother in the morning, also because of some life trivials. I don't think it is my fault though I apologized. I always sit down and think about my life. I often blame myself and am sorry to him or her. I just wonder who is sorry to me? We are families but unable to communicate. It's quite hurtful to me. Why not be more tolerant?

Have you tried sitting down with all the people in your family and talk about things that might be hurting you or troubles you? Maybe that would be the only way for you to have a very peaceful environment.

Probably you are right. I just hope that the respect you have for your parents would stay no matter what. It is really hard to deal with parents sometimes when they constantly deter us from our opinions or things that we like.

I think I've tried every means to solve our family matters and problems, but the effect was not as I expected. Genenation gap may be the most influential factor that leads to the communicative failure. It's so hard to make it so I have to give up. I love my parents though sometimes we fail to understand each other.

We sometimes clash ideas with our mother. Though we may raise our voice a bit, we should still remain respectful to our mothers. If you think that there is no good communication in your family, perhaps its about time that you initiate communication. Do it in a loving way though.

Yes, you are right. And I just do as you said. Though sometimes quarrel happened, I've never say anything without respect. I even choose the word that is least hurtful when we are quarreling. Communication is so hard sometimes.

Yes that's true specially when we are communicating with our parents to explain our side. We should be careful on our tone and the words that we use.

one of the keys to communication is listen without defending, talking with out offending.

Thanks. That's reasonable. But you know sometimes it's hard to make it.

I have the same issues with my family. They don't understand me, so we practically talk next to each other, not to each other.

That's a good idea, I think. Maybe the best thing is that you can find your own way to solve problems, or at least cover them. Thank you for your experience, friend.

Hi, When we quarrel with members in our family we feel very sad even if it is our fault or not. The environment is disturbed by the quarrel. You are nice. You blame yourself for the dispute. It is quiet hurtful to you and your mother also. Sometimes some misunderstandings creates quarrels. We should try to think before speaking anything so that we don't hurt anyone's feelings.

Yeah, I know. Think twice before you do something. But you know I've tried my best to please my parents. But things are complicated, and we just can not communicate. I've tried several times but now I give up. Because once you say something they don't agree with, they would be sad and think that you don't love them. The worst thing in life is that nothing you can do to change.

Despite being a family, we all have different ideas, beliefs and principles. And it is but normal to have disagreements with them. Afterall, we can all agree to disagree. Of course we must always remember that no matter what, we're still a family. We must stick up for one another and still be there for each other.

I have tried my best to be a ideal daughter for them, because I am their only child. But the more I did, the more they want. I don't quarrel with them frequently and I've never start a fight. They just can't even stand my silence. Life is endurance sometimes. Woo...

Thanks for sharing, yes life sucks, we need to know how to handle coolly, in my opinion, you should sit with all family members, discuss the problems, hope it may work, if there is a will there is always a way
