How Can I Make My Mom Be Less Sensitive and More Happy?
My mother is puerto rican, so she is very emotional. She cries easily but also laughs easily, but it seems that lately, she's been crying more for some reason.
Everything touches her very deeply and when bad things happen, even to other people, she gets very upset and often get depressed for days as if it had happened to her or her family.
She loves animals, and if she finds out that a cat killed a bird, she'll cry.
Just yesterday, she cried and said she couldn't sleep all night because she saw something on TV. They had real footage of crimes and they showed how some black guy attacked this older white man and killed him right in the store by strangling him. All of it was on video and they showed it on TV.
My mom watched this and cried.
I am very sad to see her cry all the time but what can I do?
She doesn't have mental problems or anything, it's just she's very sensitive and empathetic.
How can I help her get a thicker skin so she doesn't have to cry all the time??
Answers:
Alright man, this is a very tough thing and I'm sorry to hear your mom has been crying a lot. My mom is sensitive and gets very emotional too. What did I do? I just tried to be nice and offer to help out with things, and do what I good son should do. If you are doing that you are doing all you can do. You can't control her emotions, I know you want to, but you can't.
Some people are more emotional than others.
Hey, where can I find that video she saw?
