Hey guys. I just wonder what you people will do when you Mom and Dad are fighting. It just kills me. I just get irritated because of that. Just for silly reasons they start their fight. Its just unbearable. I will just sit simply and watch them fight. What else can I do??? How about you people????

This used to really bother me when I was a child and then it unfortunately got to the point where it was such a normal thing to witness I just became numb to it. I think I am one of the few teenagers that was actually happy when my parents seperated because it finally meant some peace and quiet! lol. All I can suggest is that you remove yourself from the situation every time rather than sit and watch. I used to make comments to them both when leaving the room such as "Here we go again!" and "Would you two give it a rest for once!" which sometimes caused them to stop and calm down but most of the time it didn't. Walk away. There is no point distressing yourself with a situation you cannot control. All the best.

Hmm. I don't actually watch it. But I can hear it very well when they are fighting. Getting irritated for that itself. My mom will wait for my dad to go, then she will come near me and start saying everything about the fight. I am frustrated.

I really haven't seen my parents fighting like cats and dogs but whenever they fight or have some issues, I interfere because I don't want that issue to stretch like a chewing gum and later become worst.I try to make them understand,tell them how it is affecting we,kids and tell them to solve their problem by discussing instead of shouting at each other.I love my parents and I cannot see them fighting, so I try to patch up things between them instead of running away.

alright my friend..but when you do that private talk don't forget to tell them how it is affecting you kids at home,how it is robbing away your peace of mind..tell them to solve it in a peaceful manner without creating a scene in front of you kids.I hope you can do that..I want you to be happy and stay in a peaceful,good environment,I know you love your parents and your parents also love you all but,sometimes parents forget to think that when they are fighting it affects their other loved ones too.It makes you people sad and disturb.Take care..

In my house, things get worse when someone interferes. We will just leave them to fight. Once the fight is over, we will just have a private talk with mom and dad. Oh my God!! Big trouble always.

You know these problems are unavoidable. The fight starts because of money problem only. Money- the main thing that we need in life. Just goes on. My mom and dad don't have good relationship these days. They don't spend time for talking itself. Many days they just don't talk. Thats so hurting actually. I will feel a lot when I see my friend's parents.

I got married last 20 years. I rarely go to my moms place,when i go there the situation is cool and calm. Now they are also old but still they fight for some silly matters and mom complaint about that. As the children grew older the fight between the parents comes down. In my childhood i too used to watch their fight silently, if we poke our nose we get good kick so never go between the fight. Happy mylotting and have a nice day.

Oh My God! i just cant bear when my mom and my dad fight...sometimes i'll try to convince them,but in vain...they will scold me too in between!i mean when the fight is going on,even if i do a silly,simple mistake my mom will scold me for one hour....when their fight is too worse,it distracts me and i sometimes loose my concentration on my studies..In my house,normally the fight will take place when i am getting ready to go to school(now college!),it makes the whole day worst!! i can talk about this for even a day long! Fortunately,there are no fights recently!! and hope it will never happen again! i hate it very very much!.....

Ya you are right. If they start in the morning itself, it will just spoil the whole day. You know, there were days when I preferred to stay at school rather than at home. I stayed for special classes that were conducted for people who fail. I will just go and sit along wit them. I just wanted to stay away from home those days. Now its far better. Because they never speak a lot.

there is nothing much you can do, parents fight all the time, what you should be concerned about is the degree of the fight, e.g is it just name calling or too much shouting or does it go to the extent of hitting each other? if its just an argument then you should not worrying yourself so much, two people will always argue as long as they live together, it is not really bad as you might think, but i also think that they (the parents) should not air their differences in front of their children for psychological reasons, if you are a child and in this kind of situation i think its best for you to go outside when they start their fights, or just tell them to stop it, you would be suprised how many parents dont want to be corrected by their own children or talk to one of them and tell them it bothers you watching them fight

Ya its just argument. But it still hurts a lot. I will just go to my room and sit simply when they are fighting. Hehe. Thats all I can do. May be I should learn from this that I shouldn't do the same when I am married. Hehe. Happy to have your response.

It's really unbearable. I don't like to see them fight as well especially if they're fighting about me. Before, I hate it when my parents fight in front of me. What I do is interfere and help them solve the problem. I really interrupt.

I remember way back then, when my mom and dad were still together, they fight as hell! days pass by that their always fighting, shouting at each other. it hurts me a lot seeing my parents fighting. and I've been hurt for my siblings. I just sometimes cry, and release my problems with the help of my friends. it was so hard to see them that way. you can't do nothing but to watch. and they can't help but stay that way.

Usually They will fight for anything, without any reason. They start fighting cursing and they do everthing a real fight requires. I never put my head in that fight, because at the end of the day they will be toghether they are happy with thier Marraige life. Thats more than enough for me. They look after each other very well so I dont interfear in thier fight.

Thats great yar. It never happens at my home. They just fight. Thats all. They are like Tom and Jerry. One difference is that the fight is not fun. Atleast in Tom and Jerry they will be friends sometimes. It never happens here.

Hi friend, what ever you are doing is good. Never go in between mom and dad. If there is no fight in marriage life there is no intensity of love even. Though they fight everyday and though fight is part of their daily life, they also have the same intensity of love towards each other. Even my parents fight many times. Sometimes, I get irritated watching them, but the love between them is also many times more then these petty fights. When the real time comes they are one, their word is one. Hence, just ignore all this and enjoy every moment. bye now.
