Some people do like to correct mistakes. For them, they wanted to make things right. There are times that it can create misunderstandings with other people. How can we correct others by not hurting their feelings? Image Credit: listenandlearn.org

If some thing is wrong, its wrong. And really , if someone has made a mistake and is wrong, and the mistake is pointed out, why should it hurt the feelings. Surely people can just accept being wrong without feelings getting hurt

@JimBo452020 I do agree that it should be corrected. However, some people cannot accept being corrected. If this person does not want to be corrected, it is better to stop dealing with him or her. Would you agree? @marlina Thanks for agreeing with @JimBo452020

@Shavkat Well, correct someone, then leave it. Simple as that. Doesnt matter if they want to be corrected or not

One thing that is easy to identify is when we are in a good mood, we all feel comfortable and we forgive everything. We can smile at the mischief of the children, enough to tolerate a harsh speech, seemingly unacceptable things, we can easily compromise. At those times, it seemed that the whole world became peaceful, everything went smoothly.

It varies from one person to another. I also consider how to approach them. We might have the sincerity of saying it, but they might take it hard.

as teachers, i think it is our responsibility, duty and privilege to correct themistakes of our students; on a more personal level though, it is hard for me so i should still talk to the person in the most calm and subtle manner

As a teacher, we need to correct our students' mistakes. We can be frank in a personal level, too.

@Shavkat I have gone back into older posts and saw the mistakes that I made so decided to correct them. Maybe write a private message helping them spell something right.

Well, I think it is fine to suggest to others. It will not cause any harm to them.

@Shavkat I think it is embarrassing if do it in front of others. I prefer a private message to them and that is just better I feel to do it that way.

I also do not like doing it. As long as it is a constructive criticism.

Well, some people are defensive. They do not usually accept this matter.

@aureategloom I will rather stay away from them though. It is a waste of time.

It really depends on the person if that person will accept their mistakes.

I agree with you. If this person will not accept the ugly truth, then we do not need to waste time giving advice to him or her.
