How do I tell her she needs to mature?

I’ve been having constant arguments with my girlfriend recently. She keeps on ranting about her finances, her work, and her family but when I give her advice, she would always feel bad. She thinks I’m always rationalizing her situation but I think she’s just being immature about it. For her current situation, I would even say that she’s privileged enough. She works for herself. Her parents don’t ask money from her. In fact, they’re the ones giving her money. Her office is a bit stressful, I can say, but overall she’s pretty lucky than other Peru ladies. She really needs to stop her constant complaints for little things like not getting the latest shoes or her mom preparing fish instead of meat. How do I tell her that she needs to be mature without insulting her?

Some people get caught up in the little things and forget the big picture. People like this are not grateful for what they have. There is no way to change them other than they eventually wake up when they are all alone and everyone has gone on.
