Many people are getting divorced nowadays for some reason. If I'm able to find the statistics, I'll post the source so that people could see. I've heard that the divorce rate was high and it continues to increase, however, I'm not completely sure what the cause of it is. I think that divorce couples are happier because they could date again and that they could come to a better understanding with their ex; it could probably lead to a friendship which could be rather ideal for the whole relationship. Many children may believe that it's their fault, but...there's a lot of factors that could contribute to the divorce.

From my personal advice i can give cuz my parents use to fight all the time. The kids are usually not to blame. What causes most of it is that your parents don't see eye to eye on things which cause a argument cuz each one is trying to show how they are right. Sometimes both are right and sometimes both are in the wrong.

Bitterness imprisons life; love releases it. Bitterness paralyzes life; love empowers it. Bitterness sours life; love sweetens it. Bitterness sickens life; love heals it. Bitterness blinds life; love anoints its eyes.

It is absolutely not your fault! Parents are responsible for themselves and their relationship, and even if you were the worst child on the planet (which I am confident you are NOT lol!) they could still communicate to each other with love and respect and be a team dealing with you...so it is them, not you. That being said, and being a Mom of two daughters, I know when I am stressed I SOOO much appreciate little things they do to help me get through it...just being kind to me, helpful around the house, getting along with each other...if I don't have to compound my stressful days with stressful kid stuff, it helps me handle other stuff better...but regardless of what they do, it's still my job to handle my relationship with my hubby with love and respect...as it is your parents!

And BTW...my parents fought my entire life, divorced when I was 18...I wish they had done it sooner, life was easier after they split...I am not an advocate of divorce, but sometimes it is the solution that works best for the kids.

Discourage litigation. Persuade your neighbors to compromise whenever you can. As a peacemaker the lawyer has superior opportunity of being a good man. There will still be business enough.
This is all I can say.

My parents have been fighting for a very long time. Every day, they argue, and I am really getting scared. I mean…When I was younger, I remember them taking me to Central Park and we’d just hang out together. We’d all be very happy. But now they always fight. Is it my fault? Did I do something wrong? I heard them mention divorce and that really scares me. I don’t want to lose my Mom or Dad, but they fight so much. Is there anything I can do to prevent it? Please…I really need someone’s help right now. Thanks.
thanks for sharing ......you cannot avoid your Mom and Dad fighting is normal and talking about divorce ahmp...I do believe that it would be fix and settle it,,, with talking ...thanks a lot...

parents fight because of their egos and their unhappy personal lives.......... but blaming yourself is like taking unnecessary burden on your soul... so try to avoid it..
