Question Posted Thursday August 3 2006, 9:39 pm

okay so heres the deal me & my hole family was saposed to go to NYC over the weekend. i got wicked excited and stuff but then my parents got in a huge fight and arent talking to eachother. i was really excited to go but now we arent going at all. my dad wont talk to anyone but my younger sister and he is being a huge jerk. but the thing is everytime we get ready and stuff to go on a vacation my mom&dad get in a fight and we dont go. i really dont know what to do because i really wanted to go. i know it isnt always about me sometimes but i was so excited and now we arent going at all. my dad is also being a HUGE jerk to my hole family and wont say sorry or anything to anyone. my mom said until he stops acting like a jerk we arent going.

well anyways my question is should i just forget about the hole NYC thing completely or hang on and hope they will make up. i will rate high if its good advice =]

well... if i were you i would hope that they make up that way ya'll can go. but you always have to remember that it may not happen so dont get real excited about it because they might not in time... it goes back to the old saying "Hope for the best, but expect the worst!" i dont really know how to answer this that well but i tried... hope i helped a little bit

I am very sorry to hear that!
I think you guys should just leave him alone and let him cool down. Don't talk to him, don't be around him - he will figure out theirs something wrong. He will want to talk to you guys. & when he does - forgive him. Don't mess around with him until he's ready to forgive all of you. Violence won't solve anything and fighting with people you love - wont solve problems. It will just make things worse and worse.

So just let him be in his little corner all grumpy. He will want to go to NYC once he realizes he's messed up the whole family vacation!

Just give him time & he will come across! :D

Hope I helped.
Let me know if you have any questions!

I am sorry that you got caught up in the problems your parents are having. I can understand how upset you are at losing your vacation. Unfortunately, there is not a lot you can do about it because this is between your Mum and Dad and they obviously cannot see what it is doing to you and your sister.

What I can suggest is that you and your sister write a letter together to both your parents explaining how it is making you feel when this happens. It seems to me from what you said that it has happened several times before.

Is there anyone who could help you compose a letter explaining your feelings in words that your parents will take to their hearts?

I don't know if it will make a difference to them to see it from your point of view but I really hope it works.

Don't give up hope entirely about going away but try not to get over-excited until you have set out on the journey.

I hope that your parents take notice of your feelings and I wish you the best of luck.
