When did everyone in society become such sissies?

All I ever see on here is people complaining about things the average working person deals with all day everyday and just brushes it off. " My life sucks . I'm so depressed , why can't I get my way, Me me me me me."

There are people in this world that deal with real problems and worry more about how they are going to feed their children , than what they can't have or how they look or if someone said something nasty to them today.

Why can't people just gain some self respect and stop being selfish?

    EXACTLY WHAT I'M SAYING!!

    There are people with lives that have been completely torn apart by war, poverty and famine (not sure if that classes as poverty)...yet people whine about their boyfriend/girlfriend breaking up with them.

    I really don't think that all, yea some people complain more than average granted. But I also Believe that people have become a lot less sensitive to others, just look around you and how people talk and communicate with others. People have become asses if you ask me but hey what do I know.

    I think it started to get that way when people could share their thoughts on facebook and the like. I wonder if it evolved into a thing where people read others thoughts about depression and were like yeah, me too. Almost the popular thing to do. People have always had these feelings. Its just that the internet has created a way to tell others. I think the attention someone can get is craved by others. I also think the emergence of political correctness changed people for the worse.

    People are cruel and mean, especially teens (which most I hate with every organ in my body)
