it sounds cliche, but count your blessings - take stock of all the things in your lives that you are grateful for.
If you want to influence your parents, lead by example, don't lecture on being happier.

why does this happen???
nothing has got to be black or white(or grey) make life a rainbow!!!!!
ok my advice speak to them and ask them why they are so pessismitic and try to get them to do some activities plus meet new and with a good nature and sense of humour and see if some "sparkle" rubs on them ... they should see a counseller if things are a bit drastic but most of all u should
HAVE FUN!!!
See ya!

the only way to be optimistic and happy is to CHOOSE to do so. Happiness comes from inside yourself. No one or thing can MAKE you happy, it is a conscious choice.
