For the last 19years ( which is my whole life) i've dealt with my parents fighting. When I say fighting I mean extreme verbal and occasioanly phsyical fighting. Briefly my Dad loves my mom so much so he was willing to try and end his life to make her happy. My mom clearly has to suffer from psychological disoder. Although she claims she is the only normal one. She continuely accuses my dad of cheating which results in huge blown fights that last for days with cops being called and tons of tears.
I am just tired of it. I've told them and so have my siblings plenty of times how we feel and that we think it would be best if they got a divorce. They don't listen. and i am unable to simply ignore it and brush it aside anymore. There has got to be a better way of dealign with this that i have not tried. My friends are kinda bored of hearing about it saying i should be used to it by now. So I need a new wasy to deal with this. Any advice??? Posted on 05/16/08, 01:05 am |

Hello, do either of your parents use alcohol or drugs? Forgive me for being blunt but when I was growing up I prayed my parents would divorce. My sister says we put the FUN in dysFUNction.

im 28 now but i went through the exact same situation, they fought constantly. theres nothing you can do for them, you need to concentrate on YOU. since youre 19 - get a job and get your own apt. after you get settled with your new life you can start thinking about going to college. if threy are paying for youer college have them send you to the dorms or another apt.
poin is get out of there its not healthy for you and you can not prevent thre demise. i left home as soon as i graduated high school they got a divorce a bit after that. ill help you any way i can

Thanks everyone.
I couldnt figure out how to reply.. not so good with computers. No my parents dont do drugs and rarely drink. I'm also barely at home. This past year Ive mainly been away at home. But i still get involved in the drama through phone calls. then when i do get home i'm right back in it. Now once i'm home from college its making dealing with them harder than ever for me cause before i had school to escape to.
