it is easier to see the wrong. I think that this is why kids look for the neg. attention because they are never receving any attention for doing good things

Because the wrong stands out more then the good.
People tend to be reminded of the wrong doings and they tend to forget about the good people have done to them or whatever.Like (3)

It is much easier to insult than it is to compliment. On a side note, constructive criticism should be distinguished from insults. Criticism is when someone tells you something about yourself you were a little too comfortable not knowing. It may hurt, but it is also far more important to your evolution and growth as a human.

People tell you what you should DO, THINK, and SAY differently because they are anxious/fearful and have a need to control their environment--to make you more like them--and will do so even if it costs them the love of a very special person...

Because, normally, everyone is supposed and expected to do the "right". In fact, it is taken for granted that one will not do anything wrong, knowingly.
When one does anything wrong, one is reminded to emphasize that something wrong has happened which should not have.Like (2)

because to a lot of people its easier to see the wrong and not the good. its easier to point out the bad than the good because they are always looking for the negative and not the positive.

because most people are always looking to the negative of everything in life instead of the postive of life.. if you come across postive people they will point out all the good instead of the bad.
