How to deal with parents divorcing


Question Posted Thursday August 20 2009, 11:03 pm

My parents are divorcing and it's really hard. I cry all the time. I don't want them to divorce and not be together. They're always yelling now and fighting over really STUPID stuff! I hate it. It's making me really depressed. Mom says Dad doesn't listen to her and Dad says Mom doesn't seem interested in him any more. It sounds like a big bunch of garbage now and I just want this to be fixed. What do I do? How do I cope?

Honestly? Sometimes relationships just can't be fixed. My parents were seperated before I was born and divorced about 5 months after. I grew up with only one parent and it was odd, especially seeing other kids with both.

It has to be harder for you seeing as you know both of them, but you have to think of their happiness as well. If they aren't happy, it's going to affect your home life as well as school and your social life.

Maybe you should talk to your both your parents at the same time, let them know how you're feeling.

You have to remember though, them seperating isn't the end of the world. You're still going to see both of them and even though they may not be together they still love you very much. If they stayed in this relationship just because you wanted them to, I can guarrentee that you will all be miserable.

I know it sounds incredibly stupid, but you need to let this run it's course. Who knows, it might even fix it's self.

Hey there,
My parents are divorced, and as hard as it was,there were many things that helped me get through it.
Hobbies or anything that keeps your mind occupied help, reading, music, and talking to your friends/people you trust help the most. It is always okay to cry. Crying helps you let it all out and cleanse your soul.
You should try to live your life as you normally would and spend time with your friends as much as possible. Friends are the best medicine, they can make any day brighter. Ignore the noises you hear,it is between your parents and they will work it out.
Keep you head high no matter what, smile through it all, keep living your life, and it will be alright. You will always have both your parents and they will always love you the same. Sometimes things cannot always be fixed,just mended well. <3
