Mom and stepdad always fighting?
My mom and stepdad have been fighting a lot lately. They're always arguing about dumb things. I asked my mom if they're getting a divorce and she said she doesn't know. If they got a divorce then we would have to move out of our house and into an apartment. My stepdad can be mean sometimes but I don't think I would be super upset if we didn't live with him. My biggest concern is my stepbrother. I love him like he's my actual brother, and when I talk about him I always refer to him as 'my brother.' If they got a divorce it would be like leaving my own brother and I would be so upset. How do I get them to stop fighting?
My stepdad is always fighting with my mom and yelling at me.?
Listen to Katy r, she gave really good advice, and a little prayer to God would help too! But yeah, take a break, tell your mom why, and go. Have some quality fun time with your dad, and let your mom deal with this creep. Its her problem dear, not yours. When she is sick of it, she will do something about it. You ARE sick of it, and you WILL do something about it, you will live with your father , and not deal with your mom's creepy husband anymore. You are not a b****, and you are suffering emotional turmoil living in that situation. Your mom is a "big girl" and she will want you around to "buffer" the pain he causes. Don't fall for it. You move out and let her deal with it. She brought him in, she can kick him out. You take care of yourself OK? Live with dad, and concentrate on teenage stuff; dating, friends, hobbies, clubs, school work, and fun! Go, have some change. And have some fun. You only get to be a teen ONCE !
My mom and stepdad are fighting! :/?
Hi, I'm worried and would like some answers :'( please read all the way through I'm 12 years old and this morning I woke up to my mom and stepdad screaming at each other, I don't know what it was about but my guess was financial problems. My mom kept yelling "I don't love you, I want a divorce, I don't care about you!" at my stepdad. She told him it was all his fault that our life is the way it is. They have been married since I was about 6, but they've been dating since I was 3. My mom divorced my biological dad when I was too young to remember, and he moved to Washington, I've only met him once. I think of my stepdad as my real dad, I mean he is! A father is someone who teaches you how to ride your bike, or who checks your closet and under your bed to make sure there's no monsters, and he's done all that! I'm taking my stepdad's side, my mom's blown-up a bunch of other times over the course of their relationship, and they've all blown over in a few days. I talked to my stepdad and my mom's caused him to have a severe case of depression, he doesn't blame her, but he feels like he doesn't have a place in this world, if my mom left him he wouldn't have anywhere to go, he's too old to get hired anywhere. He's been having thoughts about suicide, and if he did that, I would never talk to my mom ever again! It sounds terrible but she's caused me some serious emotional and physical stress! I lied to her about eating my breakfast, and she grounded me for a month, another time I lied to her about where I got my skirt (she doesn't like me borrowing friends stuff so thats why I never told her) and she grounded me for another 2 weeks. She said I disgusted her and didn't talk to me for 3 days. Sometimes, I honestly believe she doesn't love me! She's also a huge hypocrite, I went shopping with her and she said we spent way too much money and that I had to take all my stuff back but she bought more than me! And then she said that going shopping was my whole birthday and I wasn't getting any presents!! If she divorces my stepdad I don't want to never be able to see him again! But since he's not my dad I won't be able too! :( What do I do!!!
How can I get my aunt and my mom to stop fighting?
My aunt is very hard-headed and she's held a grudge on my mom for 6 years now, just because my mom and dad got divorced, she was mad. She just won't let it go. And since my aunt doesn't like my mom, my mom goes along w/ her and is mean just as much. my aunt pretty much hates the world, she talks about everyone. I just don't know what to do. She flips my mom off when she's driving down the highway & she talks about my mom to me & I just don't know what to do. I'm so confused..please help me.
Should I apologize to my mother? She always picks fights with my dad and plays the victim and I finally called her out on her bs?
I’m already married i have a life outside my parents home, but my sisters who still live at home with my parents always call and tell me there going at it again, when I was young and at home I would always make them apologize and help mend things, but only for a week or two. Today my mom was telling me the same thing as always “I made a comment to your dad about about a painting, and he ignored me” and out of nowhere he started telling me all these things, so I insulted him back” and now we are not speaking.” I know that he doesn’t insult her unless she does it first, she has such a short temper with everyone!! And I finally told her: “No mom you made a comment, he was probably on his phone, YOU insulted HIM, and he insulted you back!!! And now you wanna play victim” She got all desensive and told me I was picking sides and walked out of her own house to go grocery shopping “supposedly” I’m so done with these people I have other things to do with my life than to keep trying to fix them I’d rather them separate if they’re so unhappy But I feel bad because I just let her have it, but shese to old to change, she always plays victim and never accepts her wrong doing

My mum and dad are always arguing, what should I do?
You may like to plan to have a time for your family. It can be a dinner time or weekend that you like to request them to have some time with you. When it happens, calmly tell them how you been feeling about them fighting all the time and makes you feel sad. You tell them love them very much and know that they love you too but seeing fighting all the time makes you feel not loving each other makes you feel very lonely. See how they respond to your statements.Have them know that many children leave home due to the fighting and never see them again. I’m praying for your family to be reunite again and enjoy each other.
My mom and dad are fighting and I'm getting a silent treatment by my mother for "picking my dad's side", what should I do?
This is abusive behavior, but on a scale minor enough that you can’t do much about it.I’ll share a similar story I have from my own childhood. My mother and stepdad used to fight a lot. I mean a lot. Screaming, throwing things- police sometimes for noise complaints etc. My mom always would force me to call him if he left the house or didn’t answer her calls. She’d cry or scream or ignore me and give me these disgusting death glares. But outside of that, she was an amazing mother strange enough. It was just when they fought- I was always forced in the middle.I ended up just doing what she said because she’d threaten to punish me and I didn’t really care that much so I just did it because my step dad was a dick.One day, when I was 18 visiting home again she tried to make me do the same thing. She yelled at me and said I didn’t love her and that I HAD to call him. So I didn’t. I said she didn’t own me anymore and I wasn’t going to get in the middle of their shit. And I’ve always looked fondly on that day.In your shoes though, I’d tell your mother ( if you can get the guts to do it) that you’re not choosing sides and that you want to be left out of it. You’re a child and not responsible for their crumbling marriage. Ignore her back and see how she feels. Or even better sit both of them down and explain to your father what she wanted you to do and have a family discussion about it. She’s going to be embarrassed and both of them will have to settle this as adults.You need to remind your mother that you’re not responsible for her fights and you love both your parents and refuse to play head games like this. If she’s going to ignore you because of it then she’ll probably lose you once you turn 18 because you’ll resent her for it. I know I still resent my mother for putting me in the middle of things and I’m nearly 21 now.
