What is a "Problem"? It's something less than ideal, right? So... if/when someone complains about "problems", they are aware that something is less than ideal.
Focusing attention on "problems" is good exercise of awareness, but it also admits dis-ability (another "problem") if/when there's no solution we can demonstrate.
Why would people bother focusing attention on "problems" which they can't solve ~ since it's not their "problem"? And then... admitting that dis-ability, not focus on that "problem" which is now within their ability to solve ???
Because it's "something" to do ? Anything is better than Nothing (to Do, Be, Have) ~ but exercising awareness on the wrongnesses is a bad habit of admitting dis-ability in re: exercises awareness on a rightnesses, don't you see?

I've ben having a problem recently with neighbors who play their music at 0600, loud enough to attract my attention. Naturally I alerted them that I've no need of an alarm clock as I'm usually awake ~ but the fact remains that I don't live in their cell... and yet their rap music is somehow in mine at dawn. after re-minding them time and time again, I've let them know that I can also hear them on a call phone over there during the night, in order to suggest what they have to lose if I have to storm in their to fix the volumn on their noise maker some day. A few days later and I decide maybe my occasional pigtail mockery has given them the wrong impression. So I wrote the following on the reverse side of my news article about stabbing the attourney, realizing that youngsters in prison these days may never have had any discipline to be considerate of others - or suffer the consequence:Vecino, imaging how you'd feel if there was one guard who kept coming into your cell first thing in the morning before breakfast and making a mess of it - justified of course, as he is just doing his job looking for cell-phones, weapons, ect. We would consider this a problem - and likely call it harassment. How would you suggest someone can solve that problem if it was happening to your neighbor who you cared about? "You've gotta talk to him homie".
Yes, thank you, Now imagine how you'd feel if there were ghetto thugs next door to your Abuelo out there on the streets who all too often disturbed the old man by trespassing and leaving trash in his yard during their morning routine loading-up their garden tools for work each day :) LOL. Naturally, you'd want to re-solve this disregard of Grampa's peace of mind, wouldn't you? How would you handle that situation-without making it worse? "You've gotta talk to them hermano",
Yup, I know- huh? Otherwise-in either case above, such misconduct continues But then what if the guard- or the thugs- continue disregarding personal space even after being talked to about it? How long does the average complainer complain, before they just grudgingly accept what's happening?
If there was a guard trespassing your space, I'd help you consider ways to make him accountable. If there were thugs disturbing your families peace of mind I'd help you consider ways to make them accountable.
As you see by the article I'm not the average complainer. Considerations of common courtesy in this place is rare, but properly reminded, we all do generally get what we deserve, don't we.

So let's see how they take it- after I ask 'em if they can read.

* WAR: a means of bringing about a more amenable frame of mind on the part of the enemy.
: a struggle between opposing forces or for a particular end.
