I think I'm wrong, because of this very topic of “about complaining.” I've always been a complainer. I've always had to complain. I can't be quiet without complaining.
I don't want to complain so much, but when I was little I went through so many inhibitions. I could never complain because I would get a spanking from my father.
My mother would bring him the complaint about me, how bad I was behaving and my dad would proceed to beat me up. It was a constant cycle. Come to think of it, my mother was to blame for me getting beaten so much. She always complained to my father and he would hit me, hit me and hit me.
I spent all my childhood years being repressed because if I complained about the mistreatment I would get a beating. That's how I grew up.
When I grew up, I promised myself that I would no longer hold anything back. I started complaining about everything and I got better at complaining. To the point that I got tired of complaining so much. That's in my personality, I can't get it out of me anymore, although sometimes I try not to complain and to say things in a tone that doesn't sound like complaining. In the end in my mind, it is still a complaint.
I think it is good to complain in some way to have peace of mind, but not to take it as a way of life.
I have learned to keep quiet sometimes, say nothing, and turn the page. So I can feel better and not complain so much.

Before jumping to anything you mentioned in your comment. I have to say that it takes courage to say something personal or reflect on something that you feel strongly about.
Now, I guess we need to start with putting intention into perspective. Sometimes we try to do things and we end up not doing them in the best way possible. That could be for many reasons, it could be because of the society or our previous experience.
Moving to the part where you spoke about your experience. I think there are 2 questions to be asked here. What did I learn from this? And where am I headed from this point?

What I have just told you is part of my childhood life, of my adolescence. It is something personal but I learned that saying it or writing it was good therapy. I wish 40 years ago I had known about these platforms that encourage us to write about our lives.
I am not ashamed to point out ways of life that I maintained and endured because I chose to. I would have preferred to have grown up in another environment, but that's the way it was, that's the way I lived and learned to live my life.
I am talking about something that happened to me more than 40 years ago. I studied and as I got to know other groups of families I acquired life experiences. I graduated twice in health professions. This helped me to channel my repressed feelings of resentment.
Today, I have a 24 year old son, we are friends. He knows these sad stories. And he also knows that they are part of my past, they are in my mind and I no longer have hatred and resentment.
The complaining helped me to get out my frustrations and to say from the first moment what made me feel bad.
#betterlives #wewrite #commented
Are they your real parents?
The role of a father is to be angry and harsh. He may scare his children, but when children become mentally disturbed, parents should be flexible in their behavior.
I really wish that parents should live in a friendly environment with their children so that children do not have to go to a stranger to solve their problems, but rather see their parents as their friend, teacher, and benefactor, who has a solution to every problem they have.
#wewrite #comment
Yes, they were my biological parents. The truth is that they were also educated in the same way with a lot of punishment and severity.
I never had my parents as friends, at least not my father. After I grew up, I did have my mother as a friend. Then that was part of my past. The truth is that I learned to complain about everything and everyone.
It seems impossible to abandon or go against the environment and lifestyle to which a person is accustomed since childhood.
Time is the greatest healer. With the passage of time, countless changes occur in a person.
And it is also a fact that a person can never walk on a straight path.
Every person has different priorities, which he keeps changing according to time and circumstances.
I hope you will not follow in your parents' footsteps but will become a friend to your children and provide them with a good environment.
Many prayers for you.

Thank you for these prayers. I am an old woman now. I had one child who is now 24 years old. We are friends, even though they say there is no friendship between parents and children, I can assure you we are friends.
He tells me everything that happens to him and I tell him the same. Our relationship is based on communication. He knows everything I went through with my parents and he knows that there is forgiveness in my heart. I don't live with hatred or resentment, I just learned to live under the complaint. My son has his style and did not learn to complain like me, and I thank God for that.

I am very happy to know this and Ma Sha Allah your son is very intelligent.
I also have a son who is about to turn 3 years old. I also want to be a friend to my son. Because the bond of friendship is very precious.
You can write a story in which you describe the moments you spent with your son. You are an ideal mother. Tell the world, so that the bonding between parents and children can be strong.
And such good events are beneficial for all of us.
Have a nice day.
#wewrite #comment
Thank you very much for your words. I hope you have a happy life with your son. May you two can be good friends.
I have written a lot on that subject of mother and son friendship, and will continue to do so.
Have a happy day.
یہ انسانی فطرت ہے کہ انسان اپنی زندگی میں یا اپنے بچپن میں جو بھگت چکاتا ہے وہ اپنے بچوں کے اوپر نہیں گزارتا اور اس کی کوشش ہے ہوتی ہے کہ اپنے بچوں کو ایسا ماحول بالکل بھی نہ پیش کر سکے جیسا وہ خود برداشت کرتا ایا ہے خاص طور سے ایسی چیزیں جو اس کو ناپسند رہ چکی ہیں
I think quite the opposite of what you say. Many parents can only give from what they received because they did not learn anything else.
I have a son, I was also somewhat harsh in character with him, but not to the same extent as I was treated. But I did hold my frustrations for many years until complaining helped me to get out of so much resentment.
It helped me a lot that I read a lot, studied a lot, assimilated that we take our frustrations out on others and that should never be so. My son and I are good friends, thank God.
There are some experiences in life which do not only teach us to do somethings in certain way. But, it teaches us every single detail of it. Not because of, how harsh or hard that experience is. But, because of how much we had deep feelings about it at the time.
God bless,
#betterlife #wewrite #comment
That is what experiences are for, to teach us. But bad experiences also teach us and it is up to us to know how to filter the good ones in the bad ones, to be able to live better and healthier.
یہ ہمارے معاشرے کا المیہ ہے کہ ماں باپ اپنے پریشانی میں بچوں کو ضرور گھسیٹ لیتے ہیں وہ اس طرح کے اپنا غصہ اپنے بچوں پر ہی اتار دیتے ہیں اکثر اوقات ماں باپ کا غصہ صرف اس وجہ سے بچوں پر اترتا ہے کہ وہ ایک دوسرے کی خیالات سے ہم اہنگ نہیں ہوتے
At this point in my life I don't think they did such a bad thing to me, I just couldn't understand their aggressive behavior. Now I know that they had a lot of resentments and I was just part of their venting.
The role of a father is to be angry???? Sorry, but I disagree with you. The role of parents is to love their children, stand up for them and support them. I really find this a terrible thing to say.
Imagine you are a father and your only task is to share the hell out of your children and beat them up.
#betterlife #wewrite #comments
No one can love their children more than their parents. But a father's fear prevents children from following the wrong path. I have been afraid of my father all my life, but the reason behind this fear was not that he would beat us.
My father never beat me, he never even lifted a finger. Behind this fear was hidden my love, respect and honor for my father.
Because of this fear and because of my father's strict nature, we could never have a friendly atmosphere.
But in his last days, he had completely changed. We were together like a kind and best friend, and there is no doubt that those were the best moments of my life.
#wewrite #comment
Oh, I did respond to that same thing. I guess, it sounded the same when I read it. Although, I can say that when I come across things like this online. Normally, the person intended to say something different. But, ended up writing it in a certain way.
But, I agree with..
#betterlife #wewrite #comment
میرے خیال میں یہ ان کے اپنے ہی والدین ہوں گے مگر کچھ والدین کو والدین بننے کا ڈھنگ نہیں ا پاتا ان کی اپنی پریشانیاں ان کے بچوں کی سوچ سے اوپر ہوتی ہیں وہ ہما وقت اپنی ہی پریشانیوں میں گھرے رہتے ہیں اور لڑائی کا بہانہ ڈھونڈتے ہیں ایسے وقت میں جب وہ اپنا غصہ ایک دوسرے پہ نہ اتار سکیں تو اس کا شکار بچے ہو جاتے ہیں
I mean come on. I know that is not what you meant literally. But, the words themselves are bad. Or at least it makes one feel bad about himself. LOL..
I guess parents try their level best to help their kids achieve things. They sometimes do things that they are not used to. Just because, they think it is going to be best for their kids.
You know, there is a saying about fathers "He is the only person who wants to see you become better than him".
#betterlife #wewrite #comment
I did not mean a cruel father at all. But fathers are definitely strong-willed and as a head of the household, this is right because a strong person makes every effort to ensure the survival of his family and maintains and protects the home and family well.
And along with the father, the role of the mother is also very important. May Allah protect all our parents.
#betterlife #wewrite #comment
I agree that it's good to vent and to say what's eating you. It's unhealthy to hold in what makes one sad or unhappy and by expressing it one also discovers what is wrong and what hopefully can be solved.
Those "good old days" where mothers used fathers to beat the crap out of you which is what my father did.
As a child, I found the most disgusting thing to pretend that I am happy and everything is fine. I decided not to do that no matter what the consequences were. And I did not. The worst thing that can happen is losing oneself.
#betterlife #wewrite #comments
When I was a child I was never happy but no one seemed to care. I wanted to have uncles, cousins, grandparents, but none of those things. So I grew up repressed by not being able to talk to family or friends. I felt I had very low esteem.
If I hadn't had the sense to create my financial independence I would never have increased my self-esteem. I only achieved it by studying and learning.
Complaining only helped me to put my conditions to others. I wanted everyone to know the limits to approach me. No one would abuse me with their mistreatment, or hit me with their words.
For me, complaining became my best survival tool.

اپ کے بچپن کے بارے میں پڑھ کر بہت افسوس ہوا کہ ماں باپ اپنے بچوں کو کیسے اتنا زیادہ مار سکتے ہیں۔ماں باپ تو اپنے اپ تکلیف برداشت کر کے بچوں کو ارام پہنچانے کی کوشش کرتے ہیں کہا کہ ایک دوسرے کی شکایت پر اپنے ہی اولاد کو مارنے کھڑے ہو جائیں
اپ کی شکایت کرنے کی وجہ جائز ہے کیونکہ اپ کا بچپن بہت تکلیف دہ تھا مگر ایک جرنل خیال یہ ہے کہ زیادہ شکایت کرنے والے لوگوں کو پسند نہیں کیا جاتا کہا جاتا ہے کہ ایک چپ سو کو ہرائے لہذا اگر انسان تکلیف کو برداشت کر کے تھوڑی دیر کو چپ رہ لے تو ہو سکتا ہے کہ معاملہ سدھر جائے۔
My parents thought that beatings and beatings solved everything. It was the way they also learned from the parents they had, that is, my grandparents. I never knew them.
I always had a rebellious personality, maybe that's why I received so many beatings, to break me. They succeeded, they got me to shut up, externally, because in my thoughts I was screaming and with a lot of resentment.
It was hard for me to get rid of hatred and resentment.
I think they didn't do it because they were bad as people but because it was what they learned.
A buyer called customer service to complain about the new chair.
Buyer: "It wobbles!"
Rep: "Have you tried sitting still?"
Buyer: "Well, now I’m complaining about your attitude too!"

Thanks a lot @disconnect
Thoughts about complaints..? I guess this is going to be an interesting one and there will be more discussion in the comments than the previous ones. So, good luck to you with the number of notifications received on this.
So, I think I will make this one relatable to everyone around here. I guess I can complain about misunderstanding each other in the comments. I do understand that some of us are using translator to engage with those who don't speak any common language. But, at certain times the translator fails us and gives us something that is bit rude to say. While, the others would understand. But, if that keeps happening to the same person, it would probably be taken personally.

First of all ... the average of comments to this comment contests is about 100 if not more. Why did it drop? As soon as I don't show up or invite people, that is clearly how Steemit works. Many like to be served instead of looking around and joining something that's easy to join.
Indeed, the use of the browser didn't bring much, and reasons weren't given why chrome is labelled as the best and not google without chrome for example. It made me clear that also if it comes to browsers, people love to be served and it's easily believed this is the safest browser of all (the greatness of the power or promoting?).
I agree if it comes to the rudeness of translators, and I noticed it myself today. Certain words show up I would never use. Is it modern or the American influence or a lack of words?
Complaints.. what to think about reviews?
Semua orang saya rasa punya keluhan sendiri, tidak hanya tentang masalah keuangan, sakit dan masih banyak lagi yang bisa di keluhkan.
Saya tidak ingin mengeluh terlalu banyak karena bukan hanya kita saja yang punya masalah bahkan orang lain juga punya masalah melebihi masalah yang kita alami.
Kita tidak berjalan di sendal orang jadi kita tidak tahu seperti apa dia menempuh perjalanannya, kita boleh mengeluh terlalu berlebihan karena orang tidak akan suka mendengarkannya tapi mengeluhlah hanya pada yang mahakuasa karena hanya padanya kita pantas untuk mengeluh dan memohon jalan keluarnya,
Yuk temanku @hafsasaadat90 @gondalbiya, @saniya9 bagimana pendapat anda tentang mengeluh?.

What a wise and empathetic perspective.You're absolutely right; everyone faces their own unique struggles and challenges.Recognizing that others may be dealing with even greater difficulties can help us cultivate gratitude and humility.Complaining can be draining for both ourselves and those around us.Instead, taking our concerns to a higher power, as you mentioned, can be a powerful way to seek guidance and solace.Your words promote empathy, self-awareness, and faith.

Terimakasih temanku anda telah mengerti tentang isi hati saya.
Banyak hal yang kita hadapi seperti dua malam ini terakhir ini saya sedang tidak pergi sholat tarawih karena ada perkara yang harus saya selesaikan dan ini menyangkut tentang sebuah hubungan rumah tangga yang akan berakhir jikalau saya tidak bisa bijak untuk menengahi perkara ini.
Sebenarnya ini bukanlah tanggung jawab saya sepenuhnya, namun sebagai seorang perempuan dan di mohon oleh saudara saya untuk saya melerai pertengkaran yang saya sendiri tidak tahu apa sebab.
Sebenarnya saya lelah menghadapi perkara seperti ini, namun lagi-lagi saya harus maju di barisan depan, mau mengeluh rasanya tidak ada guna juga
Ya sudah saya harus mengorbankan terawih saya untuk mendamaikan mereka terlebih dahulu, doakan saya semoga kali ini saya juga bisa berhasil melakukannya 🤲
If you are tired of cases like these say: NO. Say you can't do it since you are tired and this is not your quarel. Everyone has a road to take and learn from it.
Benar sekali teman, namun saya tidak bisa menolak kalau memang masalahnya rumit dan membutuhkan saya, dan malam ini saya sudah memecahkan masalah lagi dan baru saja selesai.
Suami istri yang bercerai dan kami mendamaikan mereka sehingga mereka rujuk kembali dan bisa berkumpul bersama.
Alhamdulillah berhasil dan ada kepuasan tersendiri setelah menyelesaikan kasus tersebut, walaupun lelah tapi ada rasa bahagia telah melakukan perkara yang baik

Do you believe people do not have the right to complain?
What if you buy something new that turns out to be broke? You keep it or you return it to the seller and complain?
If you don't complain you also do not need a warranty and you will be easily scammed.
Will you not complain if you are treated badly or your child is?
I know I would.
Semua orang punya hak untuk mengeluh bahkan saya juga apa lagi mengenai anak saya. Dan saya pastikan anak saya tidak boleh di perlukan buruk karena saya selalu mengajari mereka untuk tidak melakukan sesuatu yang tidak baik pada orang lain, jadi kalau ada juga yang memperlakukan anak saya dengan buruk saya sendiri akan terjun tangan saya tidak akan mudah menerima hal tersebut kalau menyangkut anak, keluarga dan orang-orang yang saya sayangi.
Akan tetapi ada hal juga yang tidak saya keluhkan kalau memang masih bisa saya terima, karena saya orangnya tidak suka mencari keributan.
Jika saya membelikan sesuatu barang dan ada perjanjian saya tidak akan tinggal diam, jiwa saya yang lembut akan segera berubah jika hal-hal tersebut memang tidak bisa saya terima. Saya selalu berusaha sabar akan tetapi saya juga suka memberontak, itu akan terjadi setelah saya sakit dulu, dan saya tidak mengerti dari mana datangnya keberanian untuk melawan.
Saya bukan orang jahat tapi saya juga tidak mengatakan kalau saya baik, intinya bagaimana orang bersikap pada saya maka saya akan mengimbanginya.

Did you watch the film: A better Life?
Can we complain if the life isn't what we had in mind if we have the chance to live in the land of our dreams (or at least the dreams and opportunities we always thought exist because we were too blind and ignorant to see the truth wearing our pink sunglasses?) .
Do we have a right to complain? Or is complaining the only way to have a reason to fight and live?

I have seen the trailer of this film in which a father's immense love for his son was visible. Then I heard its review in Urdu version. The desires and hard work of a hardworking father were killed. The struggle to dream and fulfill them shown in it is admirable. But the pain of his dreams being shattered was painful. Despite being right, he could not complain to anyone because even the law has some principles.
In my opinion, Carlos Galindo was also right in his place and so was the law.
A better message that we get from this story is that hard work and dedication lead to success.
Carlos works hard for his son's better future without worrying about the outcome.
But the path he took was wrong.
#wewrite #comment
He said he needed a way to live.. The question is is the only way to live for your children or should we all follow our own path and find a way to better our lives?
How can a person improve his life by following the wrong path?
I have seen many people who take the wrong path for a better future for themselves and their children, but in the end, you know what happens to them?
Their world is also destroyed and so is the hereafter.
The children for whose sake they take the wrong path become a test for them.
Now let's see in this movie, a wrong path separates both father and son.
I felt Carlos was not one of those who complain but rather one of those who work hard. But the path he took destroyed their lives instead of improving them.
#wewrite #comment
And lastly, I want to say that we cannot complain about life. Life does not go by complaining.
If we want a better future, we should not stop our life with complaints, but work on it. We have to make time and circumstances favorable for us.
To achieve a better future, we have to work hard. And to gain something, we have to lose something. That is why, instead of complaining, a better person should make time and circumstances favorable for himself and work hard.
As we have all heard, hard work is the key to success.

Any tips how to work on it?
Any tips how to avoid stress and not get cancer from holding in and pretending everything is alright?
Apparently cancer is also a problem. It is not an incurable disease that the patient should be left to die or be left alone in pain.
We treat this cancer to eliminate it. And after treatment we get a new life. And no one can tell the value of this new life better than the patient.
In the same way, we cannot separate problems and troubles from ourselves. They go along with our life. To eliminate them, we have to use our intelligence to get rid of them. And if we cannot get rid of them, then we have to make some compromises to live with them.
#wewrite #comment
I have not watched that movie to be honest.
When I read the name of the movie you mentioned I remembered a movie that I have been hearing a lot about few years back. It is called "A Beautiful Life" or "To A Beautiful Life". That is an Italian movie.
Anyway, regarding your question. I guess, we will still be complaining even if we said we should not.

شکایت کرنا ایک ایسا عمل ہے جو کہ کسی کو بھی پسند نہیں ہوتا۔کچھ لوگ ایسے ہوتے ہیں جنہیں ہر وقت کسی نہ کسی سے گلا شکوہ رہتا ہے جو کہ نہ خود خوش رہتے ہیں نہ ہی دوسروں سے شکوہ کر کے انہیں خوش رہنے کا موقع دیتے ہیں۔اگر شکایت کبھی کبھی ہو تو بری نہیں محسوس ہوتی لیکن اگر کوئی شخص ہر وقت ہی کسی نہ کسی بات کا گلا کرتا رہے تو وہ ناپسندیدہ تصور کیا جاتا ہے حتی کہ لوگ ایسے شخص سے قطرانے لگ جاتے ہیں جو کہ شکایت زیادہ کرتا ہے۔میری نظر میں ہر وقت یا مختلف مواقع پر شکایت کرنے والے لوگ ایسے ہوتے ہیں جنہیں اپنی زندگی سے بھی گلا ہوتا ہے۔
