hi, i'm 16 and i have a brother who is 14. I got this from a friend. I don't think you know me, because i don't know you, but I have a question. I have read your advice to other people and you seem to be good at it so i thought i'd give it a shot. my problem is, is that my parents fight CONSTENTLY(I don't know if thats spelled right?)! It's to the point where my brother and i just want them to get divorced. We can't take it anymore. They don't want to because they think it would be better for us if they stayed together but the thing is, is it not. It just makes us all unhappy ALL the time. I don't know what to do. Can you help?
Have you tried talking to your parents about how you and your brother feel? If not I would tell them, not only to express how you are feelings, but you show them how their fighting is affecting you.
Divorce is not really an easy way out, alot of the time it can be very messy and stressfull. It might seem like the best option at the moment, but might not seem so in the future with all the court orders, and switching familys, and splitting holidays etc.
But I would for sure talk to your parents about this, let them know how this is affecting you, and others.
