"We Teach People How to Treat Us"- Dr. Phil

Oh...how true is this...we choose our own destiny. For most instances this is always true. Although there are some people in this world that are naturally negative and choose to have termoil in their lives....I choose to stear clear of them and it makes my life easier.

I do like Dr. Phil, and I fully agree with the quote. At first I was going to disagree... but I've thought about it and I agree. The truth is, I am the nicest person in the world to some "friends" who aren't the most reliable people in the world. So you'd say, well I've been nice to them, so why are they unreliable or ignoring me when I need them?? Then I realized, I have taught them to be unreliable to me because I put up with their sketchy behavior in the past! I never confront them for not calling me back when they said they would, or cancelling plans at the last minute... therefore I've taught them it's ok to be a jerk to me :( So as crappy as it seems, the statement seems very true!

Yeah ,what that person has said is almost right.We tend to start teaching a person manners when ever we are treated badly(may be we are on the wrong side).At that time we think that the other person dont know the manners and we know all.Its one of the habbits which will be arising when we are hurt.Its NOTHING BUT A THING THAT SHOULD BE SEEN WITHA PITY.

I totally agree with Dr. Phil on this one. You have to be willing to back up what you say, find an authority who can back you up, or at the very least, willing to walk away from this person forever. Start With the phrase, "I may have in the past but I will no longer allow....." I also find it disheartening to see those parents who cannot control their children. I have never had a discipline problem with my children and I often get complimented on how well behaved they are. I started letting them know who was the boss in the womb. lol.

yes yes ,when the other treated me badly, I feel quiet badly! One of my roommate is something of this kind.She is very rudeand always laugh at others' fauts.She makes us very trying!When we are angry at her behavior,she is very happy.She is also very arbitrary!She do not esteem people. People of this are wanting upbringing.

Yes i believe this is true, whatever output you give out will be the input you'll get from other people. So it's all cause and effect actually. If you act a certain way when do something eventually they will treat you in a certain way since you react that way.

If you put it that way, then it makes more sense, I agree with that statement then.

Yes I agree with this statement and with your last sentence. If we are mean people will treat us that way. If we have no self esteem how can we demand respect. If we are unkind how can we expect anything different. Yes this statement is so true.

I love the Dr. Phil show (I was invited to appear but declined). Yes I do believe that we teach people how to treat us. Act like a wimp you'll get treated like one. Act as if you are confident and know just about everything and people will be believe you are and will treat you with respect (even if they don't like you very much).
