My mom and dad was fighting with me when I was just taking advice. Here I have a problem. If I do what my dad said to do when I was crying which was to go to the garage. But if I do clean my room up I'll get into trouble because I am still crying. I can't ignore and I can't do. My mom gave me advice just that morning about a situation like this where if I listen to one the other one will be angry. If I listen to the other the other one will be angry. I took my mom's advice and it just got me into big trouble.

I tend to be in situations similar to this a lot with my parents. What i normally do, is when the first parent tells me to go something, i do it. Then, if another parent tells me to do something different while im still doing task #1, ill try to calmly explain that parent #1 told me to do this, and if they both get mad anyways, i will sit down and explain to them (at the same time) that they are telling me to do two different things, and im confused and dont know what to do. I would suggest trying this with your parents, and i really hope that it all works out! :) ]
I'm assuming that your parents are still together, and if I'm understanding correctly, both are asking you to do different things, then getting angry when you do what the other one has asked.
If that is the case, it may be best to call a family meeting, if possible. They may not even really be realizing what they're doing. Sit them both down together and explain it to them as best as possible, and tell them that it's upsetting and frustrating for you.
I'm sorry that you have to be in this situation. It sounds like the issue is lack of communication between your parents. Hopefully you'll be able to make them understand where you're coming from, and maybe you guys can come up with a solution that works for everyone. ]
