Yeah, be wary of anything that is basically code for "stop being such a crybaby".

Are there times when it's helpful to say "stop being such a crybaby"? You betcha! That's the only way to move away from over indulgence in our selves, a decidedly big problem in this day and age.

Is anyone saying "stop being such a crybaby" is the solution for all problems? No way. And certainly not the Buddhist way.

Do you have a specific example where "stop being such a crybaby" is a good thing to say?
