very informative and helpful topic Shreya 👍🏼


I wouldn’t have opened an embarrassing topic on IF if I had read this before. I would have said “NO” to playing jibber jabber games🤔

First they need to give you the opportunity to speak and then you can say something or No..

Informative and helpful topic by CC Team! ⭐️⭐️


Many a times, I’m unable to say No to the Boss or husband / in-laws or my children as they think I’m not supposed to have an opinion of my own. 😵 Very rarely do I say No and stick to it and people call me rude or selfish as I have no consideration to their words..


Am I a robot to follow all instructions or sayings of others throughout my life?

in the PK drama, mere ban jao -- this week's episode, the mom had an epiphany. she said that good manners and etiquette does not mean you don't say 'no' and keep your boundaries and self-respect. sometimes for the good of others such as husband and children, you need to say 'no' and set boundaries. if you do not correct them in the initial stages, then who is to blame when it is a huge dragon of a problem and breathing fire.

one thing I have learned is that if you don't set boundaries from the beginning, when you start to say 'no', people might think you are rude or selfish. however, stick to your boundaries and keep pushing forward. rather than rude manner, you need to push back in a polite way -- that is also an art to be learned. eventually people will understand that they can't mess with you.

regardless of what family relationship we have, people will not respect us unless they know that we have boundaries and self-respect. otherwise, they will see us as pushovers and keep stomping all over. they will take you for granted and you will be unhappy. for our own protection and self-respect, learning how to say 'no' and when to say 'no' is a must. basically we need discern on what situations to keep quiet, go with the flow and when to stand up and roar.

Fabulous thread shreya👏. It's true many of us(specially me) have forgotten how to say No in certain situations and that makes us fall in trouble. We must learn to prioritise ourselves and say No if we feel we can't do something
