help!!! i think my parents are considering a divorce wat can i do to stop this?
the past couple weeks my parents have been getting into little arguements over my brothers attitude how he doesnt respect my mom. but my dad isnt around alot because he works alot and doesnt really see whats going on, so he took my brothers last night saying shes over reacting even though my bro is a asshole. so they ended up getting into a huge fight and my mom left the house in her car and i havn’t heard from her. helpful advice please?!!!!!!!!!

Sorry to hear this. All you can do is tell your parents how you feel. The rest is up to them. I know you don’t want to hear that.

you need to talk to your bro, because it seem like if he apolize to your mom it might make everything better. you can try to calm everybody down and have a meeting. just try to kept the peace b4 something happen.

Pray about it sweetie. Do tell your parents how you feel. Tell them your concerns. If you don’t who else will. Sometimes people have to be told.

You don’t say how old you are but this situation is between your mom and your dad. Leave it to the adults. Let your brother know how you feel. Maybe he will cool it with your mom.

I know it’s hard when you’re parents are on the verge on divorce. I went through it. All I did was like gather my family in the living room and ask them for their side of the story. But my story is obviously different for yours. I would probably suggest that you either record your brother’s attitude with your mom and show it to your dad. ( I would do that ) Either that or sit back and let things fall into place.

Just because your mother left doesn’t mean that they are getting a divorce, it means that she was pissed!! If they haven’t been fighting all the time for a long time then I would think that they probably aren’t. Even if they do end up talking about it, ask yourself if you really want them to stay in a relationship that they aren’t happen in. If the ‘D’ word does come up, talk to them about how you feel about it. It would really help you in the long run knowing that you got that out. My parents divorced when I was 3 and I grew up with the idea that all the fighting still going on was normal. Get your feelings out about it, it will help you in the long run.

You can’t do a thing.This is between your parents.They have to solve the problem.
Your mom is likely just taking time out to cool off.However, your mom and dad have to work together when it comes to your brother or other family issues.Your dad should not be taking sides against your mother.
Let them know you love both of them equally and that it upsets you when they argue.Tell your dad you’re worried about your mom and that he needs to talk to your brother about his attitude.He needs to respect your mom and apologize to her.
Good Luck to all.

Nothing. They have to do something. Maybe your family should try family counseling. Tell your parents how this is all effecting you. Parents shouldn’t get their kids involved in their arguments. How old r u? Do you have a friend or another relative you can trust to talk to.

I’m sorry to hear that but you can’t do anything if the love is gone its gone you cant make them come back to one another maybe your parent either a) need a break from each other or b) need to get a divorce but don’t blame yourself or anyone maybe they just weren’t meant to be….

There is nothing you can do about their relationship that’s up to them. Love and respect them both is what you CAN do.

There are ups and downs in all relationships…..this is one of those times….You can speak to your parents individually alone and tell them your ideas on what you see and feel and how you feel on this matter…then ask them to sit down together and have a strategy as ONE for strength in dealing with your brother…..He may need help or they do…or all as a family… They still love you but the incident is causing a rift in their relationship and as a family at the present time….family counseling can help or see your clergy of your religious denomination to mediate…..You are wise and hurting…I hope things work out for all and you all seek help…..check the phone listings of your local hospital for support or groups to help you through this upheaval in your life….My Best….

If you and your dad are friends and can talk, tell him that he just disrespected her by belittling her and taking credence away from her feelings in the matter.
