Complaining Husband and Kids

My family used to be the absolute worst at complaining. It didn't matter that there were also positive things happening. So I made a family rule that if somebody complains, they also have to say something positive about how to deal with the problem.

If they don't have something positive for that problem, they have to say something else that's positive. It's helped to make things seem a little more even.
