What will You Do When Parents Quarrel in Front of You?

It was really sad to see my parents quarrel in front of my when I was a kid. I used to cry back then. I would run into my room and cry as I heard them quarel. But as I grew upp it did not matter any more. This was because I got used to them fighting all the time.

Sad to hear this from you. I have experience seeing my parents quarelling in front

of me. Actually it is just not a normal quarrel, my father is already hurting my

mom, so to save my mom to get more pain from my father, i acted as I suffered from

heart attack. Both of them run after me, and they asked me if i am just okay? My

act has been very effective that time, my mom was save from more pain. They are now

separated. And we are happy that it happened. If I become a parent, I won't let my

children experience this kind of situation.

well i also do what you done i just give them privacy and so talk they can talk from time to time.if i get involve or interrupt this will adds to quarrel and misunderstanding of my parents.since still do not have kids and i have then soon i will lock them on the other room so that they will not see us fighting since this is not good for the eyes of the kids they may misinterpret it or they will imitate too when they will growing.so it is riskier to see by kids since they may imitate some of the scene which is not right in the very first place.have a nice day.

My parents are old enough to handle things and if they argue in front of me i don't mind. My parents arguments are just so petty and sometimes i even make fun of them for being so. Most of the times my mom will tell that my dad (he's deceased for almost a year) is insensitive, eating foods that's not good for his health, smoking and is not on time in taking his meds LOL (a baby dad), and my dad will share his side that "he knows what he's doing -- he's enjoying his life anyway we're all going to die". This line used to irritate mom!

Me and my husband never argue in front of the kids. If we're about to have a heated one we do it silently-- a cold war LOL. We both give each other space and then after a while we're fine.

When I was younger and still hangin' at the house my parents would often fight..usually over the age old money situation and my brother and I would just do our best to ignore. But one time it took another turn. He threatened to hit my mom and as I was no longer a 'little' kid (I was 6' 8" comin' outta high school) and had listened to similar krap throughout the growin' up years, I backed up my mom..
The boy paled noticably and had enough sense to back out of the kitchen and my mom stopped me from finishing the job as should have been..

My parents seems the older they get the more they argue .
I myself remember growing up they used to argue alot also.
I would go to my room,and wait till things cooled down.
I myself try to not argue with my husband in front of my son,because I remember growing up with my parents it bothered me alot hearing them argue.

i think its nah good parents quarrel infront of kids, especially kids sees there parents quarrel they will feel sad and nah happy about it, eapecially most they heared things that nah supposed the kids will hear it....so what happen the kids start to act stubborn and dont respect there parents....so its better if the couple in quarrel they should be in there room and why need to shout since you can discuss problems in talking slow....

if i would see my parents quarreling in front of me, then i would just leave them alone and go anywhere where i couldn't hear their argument because i wouldn't want hearing them quarrel..

My friend, when I was growing up and my parents fought, I locked my brother and sister in my bedroom so they would be spared any physical harm, we were so afraid.
I stayed always in the background, afraid too, but knowing that I would have to help at some time when it became very violent and THAT was horrible.

I have no doubt that it is good to see how parents deal with problems in the home, how one can learn to compromise without beatings. I never knew that.

I tried never to fight at all with my first wife, BECAUSE of what I had experienced as a lad at home, and she liked to express her anger quite freely. The marriage ended early and I ended up raising my daughter, so she saw very little of any arguing.
I am sorry you also experience some fierce arguments over trivial things. It is no doubt very wise and necessary for you NOT to be in the middle or even near when this arguing is going one..very smart of you!

When I was younger, I used to hide inside my room and ignore them. As I get older, I realized that I need to do something to stop them shouting at each other infront of others. I made sure that everytime they do that, I butt in and ask them to talk it over as calmly as possible.=)
