Look at this

[Rawr]

People can have bad lifes without been poor/suffering from starvation. Yes our lifes my not be as bad as thiers, but some of us still have things we have to suffer with.

No, what I am trying to say is that people should stop complaining about their lives because their life is actually great compared to others.
Just because your parents wont buy you a PSP or whatever doesnt mean your life is crap. Some people dont even have a game console. So what I am saying is be happy with what you have instead of moaning about how crap your life is!

So basically what you're saying is if say, one of your parents died, you shouldn't be upset and think you're life is a bit crap atm you should say

'OH WELL PEOPLE IN AFRICA HAVE IT WORSE THAN ME' and just get over it. No, I didn't think so.

We cant help the fact we were born in this country..

Good topic Saurav..

I don't think I could settle on either side of this discussion, both sides have points and views which all mean truth and really point out some meaning.

However, to share some of this on Saurav's argument, I feel the same sometimes. Its as if people have everything catered for themselves but still moan how bad a life they have, in all means, being spoilt. People like this show that they havn't any notice of how others in this world live there lives, for instance, Africa. Remember, he's not telling you how to live your life, hes showing you what benefits we in MEDC countries (More economically developed countries) have against the poor in some parts of Africa.

However, no matter where you live, how wealthy or poor you are, money doesn't buy freedom, in all factors of life its something that people confuse themselves with.
People get depressed over situations and occurances some time in our life, its normal, its one of lifes obstacles. Yes, some people like to share and express there depression more than others but you have to except it. People find different ways of expressions to help themselves feel better from shouting it out loud to slitting your wrists, but lets not differ on that term again ¬_¬

Sadly for countries like Africa, they can only hope to regain a wealthy growing economy to make there lives a better. Look at this thread as a difference between your life and others, but don't look at it as a complaint.

That is the best way of puttin it. That is what Saurav meant by this thread.

I Agree With Tin, Also Africa Will Still Be Poor In 200 Years, But Their Not Comparing Their Lives To Ours, They Get On With It.

I detest people who use these kinds of images to gain some sort of 'advantage' over people.

People complain about their lives because to them, their lives are bad, and from where they are living they have only had set experiences. Like for instance, they did not grow up in africa.

You use this as to say 'It's out fault, so shut up whining about your life when others suffer'.

Well let me say, others will always suffer (Sad, but true). People can only accomodate what they have been through, I'm sure if say some person who says ' I have a bad life' means it in a way that her 'old' life has changed and it has caused her to be depressed/sad/upset with herself and her life.

I'm going to agree with Carl.

[Embean]

It's awful

[Infrontation]

Okay I haven't read through all the posts. But I agree with Saurav ;o
Okay so people get depressed think there life is terrible but at least they have the comfort of there room, food they can eat. You can say "Oh well they live in a different society" And? They are still frigging human beings and I believe you should be dropped in africa with barely any clothing, no money, a small home and a patch too survive ;l Okay I know it can be bad when people are extremely sad, but there quality of life is far better.. they can seek emotional help from others. They can talk to online friends they can phone someone.. Not in africa though. In africa it is not as if these problems don't occur. Upset emotional problems occur no matter where you are..
These people can be helped LEDC'S just need support from MEDC's to make the world a more equal place.
This post is pointless? ;l Anyone that said that can have bad rep from me
The topic can't be denied and they are about 1million less relevant posts on this forum?
Oh well you all smell go cry in a corner and say your life is worse than people in africa and that you have the worst quality of life and bad rep me cause I don't give a poo? ;l
