Do you ever feel like your parents hate each other more than they love you? Well I certainly understand if you do, and it can cloud a lot of things. How do you effectively cope with this?

I know how you feel exactly. My parents fought for years, sometimes I felt like it was never gonna end. Me an my sister just stood by eachother and stayed strong and thats how we got through it. Then we spoke to our parents and explained to them that 'staying together for the kids' wasn't exactly was what best for us. They seperated and worked on things, eventually everything panned out and they got back together.

Well you could write them a letter about how you feel! Then between arguing they can both read it.
Maybe you should cut in on an argument once......just say this one sentence....."Maybe you two should get a divorce because you are driving me crazy"
It will stop them in their tracks, and they will think about what you said. You might get sent to your room, but it will be all worth it in the end when they know just how much it is bothering you.
When the parents are acting like kids, is when you have to step up and be the adult, it's sad but sometimes just has to be done.
Good Luck.

You must always remember the problem between your parents has nothing to do with you. They both love you and are just having a hard time dealing with everything also. You could also try asking them nicely not to run the other parent down to you as you love them both. Hang in there it will get better

I was lucky my parents loved each other very much and it made us feel secure. My dad has since died.
Whichever parent you feel closer to have a talk with them. Tell them how their arguing makes you feel. Most of the time parents are so busy with their own issues they sometimes forget about the children. It doesn't mean they don't love you.

I am still screwed up because of this. No I talked to them both. They actually never realized what they where doing, too busy hating each other. But they did give it a go, didnt work but they tried and hopfully your parents will make it work.

I do. I am a parent. You just wish that if your mom and dad ever get divorce they don't separate the brothers and sisters from each other. I didn't.

You just remember that you didn't do this. Stay strong and make a pact that you'll amount to something better than that! Good luck. I know what it feels like.

just try and be independant the best you can.. try not to be aroung when it gets bad. also, ask if there is anything you can do to help. they might realize how much they are hurting you

always pray, every time things get rough and tough, God will always be there for you. you know what, it works for me always, whenever i'm hurting, i would talk to Him and i would surrender everything to Him.. and suddenly i'd feel light.. it would always seem that the heavy burden was lifted.. try it..it never failed me.

it really sucks to be in your place i know but you can't dwell on them, you love them for who they are , learn from them to not be like that and what you need to be better in life, best of luck to you
