my parents fight almost everyday and that's why i usually wonder how they end up together. i really can't imagine them as a sweet couple. when they quarrel, i don't feel the need to do anything because i'm already used to it and that it has already part of my daily life ever since i was a kid. i just keep quiet or go out of the house but of course, deep inside, i feel very bad.

hi moonhe, Yup i agree with you that everyone will face this odd situation when our parents quarrel. I don't think we can do something when they quarrel. If the situation would be verse then we need to involve in stopping them. Usually many parents will quarrel for silly reasons. I don't think that our involvement makes the quarrel end, infact it gets into more and more verse. So, if the quarrel is for silly reasons then we should leave and go on for our work. I am happy that my parents don't quarrel for silly things and infact they solve their problem by discussing but not quarreling. This is a favor done to me by them lolz.. So, i don't do anything when they quarrel, they themselves resolves the things. keep smiling and happy mylotting :)

When the quarrel is just started, i think we can't do anything to take control of the situation. But as usual, emotional decreasing by time. Just wait about half or a day and we'll find a better situation to start talking with both of our parents. Usually, a male parent is more arrogant to start an apologize. And a female parent won't start an apologize too before her husband start it. So on such situation, we can act our part as children. Just tell our father that our mother apologize and tell our mother that our father apologize. Perhaps here i mean a lying for good thing. Have a nice day and happy mylotting.

Yes,there is this situation in every family even little conflict.when I was single and live with my parent.Usually,I and my sisters create a relaxed situation but if it's serious problem,we will not offend their problems.Let them take time to find solution.Because I am dauhter,I more easily take the mother to talk and give suggestion.

What a situation if parents quarrel in front of the children.. very bad example. Do remind both your mom and dad, when they are not exchanging verbal insults, that you are deeply affected by their childish behaviour. Could they please do it in the privacy of their room? If it is unavoidable, get out of their sight. Keep inside their room and stay there until they notice that you are offended. Then tell them to behave properly in front of children next time...

when my mom and dad have this agrument. Sometimes i end up joining them..hahaha! I know its bad. But when i see my mom is right. Well, yeah! she is right all the time. Im in her side. And dad will realize he is saying nonsense things. Then he will stop. After minutes, we will act like nothing happens.. Hahaha! Its funny sometimes. Dad act like a child. But so far, theres no physical abuse.

When its just verbal fight then I just leave them alone. But when it gets physical I definitely butt in.

When I was young, my parents quarreled a lot. I usually take my younger sister away (there's only three of us at that time including my elder brother) and we will stay as far as possible. I did felt terrible, that's why I dragged her along. I don't want her to feel the same. Things gradually change as I grow up. My parents seem to mature and no longer fighting, at least not in front of us.
