Can’t wait to get away from this one day.
It drives me mad. Tbh
Do your parents argue a lot.
Especially my mum is very negative. She is very depressed
Sometimes I think she regrets having so many kids. But idk.

My parents never had a good relationship and now they’re going through a messy divorce.
I hope you can get away ASAP. It sucks when a toxic (or at least volatile) relationship hurts those in close proximity to it.

That’s annoying it’s messy but at least they are separating. That’s for the best I suppose.
Thank you Antidepressant

My parents were so bad I had to move out.
Part of the problem is neither one of them can hear chit, so they end up screaming at each other.
I’m sorry you have to go through that.

That’s great that you moved out. I think it can really wear someone down to an extent at least.

They used to scream at each other every day. They would break stuff and slam doors and scream for hours. One time my mom pushed my dad down the stairs. They used to scream at us all the time, too. I’m glad they got divorced and moving out when I was 18 was the best thing I ever did.

My parents do this too @anon90843118, they seem pretty happy doing it too. I don’t know how they do it, confrontation is super stressful for me.

I’m so sorry, that sounds super stressful.
My parents could see themselves going down a
negative path, so they decided to split up before they could reach a point where their frustrations would start to show.

Thanks Miika, yea it’s really annoying.
Glad your parents made some good choices before it would have affected you guys aswell
My sister resented my mother for leaving my dad instead of “staying together for the kids”, but I don’t believe in that crap.
It’s unhealthy for children to grow up in an unhappy home.

My parents are very good, they have reasonably good self control and the relationship between them
is awesome. My dad is a big shot.

From when I was about 8 I can remember my parents arguing a lot. I’d often be blamed for that . I wasn’t the ideal son, but even so…
Neither wanted to be dominated by the other . My father’s father had been henpecked by his wife. My mother’s father had gone to do war work in the North of England and was having an affair there. My mother was 7. He came back when my mother was 15 , and she told him to get lost. It was not the best background for marital harmony.
