Re: How to deal with your parents arguying?
Go ideas! :)
But what if they try to bring you in on it.. like "he is old enough what do you think?" and "tell your mother/father ... rah rah rah..."
Re: How to deal with your parents arguying?
oh..i need sme ideas tooo!!!
Re: How to deal with your parents arguying?
Oh I know exactly how you feel...but i was brought into their idiotic arguments at a very young age...and believe me...it used to terrify me. I never knew what to do....
You are right!!! It is such BS that they act like kids when they should act like parents!!!!!!
Now that they are divorced..they don't do it anymore...but if they ever did it again....they are gonna get a pc of my mind!
Honestly...you should tell them to leave you out of their arguments..if I were you...like it is mentioned above..I would leave the house till they calm down.
Re: How to deal with your parents arguying?
Just say: Would you please stop acting like us? :)

Yeh you get what Im talking about. Its silly really cos I feel more grown up and understanding than the two of them put together.. :P
But seriously, I do understand parents fight and that.. but having little discussions that turns into major disputes.. time after time is simply pissing me off.
Wht do you guys do to combat such situations...
Re: How to deal with your parents arguying?
my sister usually steps in and side with the person who is right and they stop because both of them listen to her:D...but my parents dont get into major arguments now...they have mellowed down with time.
Re: How to deal with your parents arguying?
I just side with my mom, whether she's right or not lol :D

All I can say is learn from them..coz one day you will be a parent, and you will know what NOT to do and what you SHOULD do!!! I never let anyone interfere in my relationship...and I dnt ask for anyone's opinion on him...whether he is right or wrong..I deal with it on my own.
Re: How to deal with your parents arguying?
I try to use humour to try and calm the situation down- it does generally work as one or the other starts laughing and this usually breaks the tension in the situation and even if the other parent wants to carry on; the one who I made laugh doesn't want to so it's all good :D
I was a very sensitive child and used to cry alot when my parents used to argue terrified that they would divorce. I know sometimes it's inevitable, but I think parents should keep their arguments behind closed doors- esp when children are young
With age, I have learned to recognise it's all just bickering and doesn't mean anything. Now quite often I just end up rolling my eyes and thinking here we go again...

I think its very brave and commendable on his part to discuss the issue on this forum. I had to deal with this too as a child, and believe me it can drive you nuts. Not so much now , i guess my parents have finally matured.

Ofcourse , you are entitled to your opinion but you have no right to pass judgment on other people who discussing very serious and real problems and trying to solicit other people's opinions and help.
I know children who have been absolutely destroyed by the conflict of their parents. Do you know the best therapy for people who have been through this is to talk and share their problem with other people who have had similar experiences in their household. If you cant say anything helpful , please don't share your pedestrian thoughts and discourage people from seeking the kind of help that will improve the quality of their lives.

Not sure how to take your comment.
I respect my parents to the fullest - both have very successful lives yet its only recently they have shown more and more dis-agreements.
Im sure many people can relate to it to it. Fact is no one knows me on here and never will so I dont think our izat will be affected. I dont talk about my family problems to every tom, dick and harry on the street! Every parent fights at some point.. and as a child growning up or have grown up in such circumstances is not uncommon.
You need to open yourself up to deal with your problems - if they remain deep down it may affect you later on in life.
Thanks mugofcoffee for your comments - dil kush kar ditta! :D

Exactly what I have learnt from them aaliyah! I respect them both fully just when I choose to marry or build a life for myself I will look back and remember how not to follow that road.. ..
When I was younger I used to hide too! lool
I think Im going to use your advice I might just walk out of the house or go round a friend's house.
Re: How to deal with your parents arguying?
^ So after getting married, if your wife argues a lot, will you go to your friend's place over and over again?
sorry but solution you are opting for is not mature its self.
TALK to your parents. What are the arguments about anyway?
Re: How to deal with your parents arguying?
Please dont make up things. Where did I say I will talk to my friends about my home situation? I said to ease/avoid the tension I would go for a walk or go to chill out with my mates.
I would never discuss my family matters with anyone other than my direct family i.e. mum, dad, bros or sisters.
