ok, here is how it went with my parents. But before i say anything, as far as i know, they have told me they love each other very much.
Ok, while my dad was cutting some bamboo trees, my mom came outside to help, but instead of helping she did the wrong thing. When she was suppose to cut off the leaves of the bamboo tree, she cut the whole thing out. (That wasn't the only stupid thing she did). So according to my dad, he called her a "dumbass". According to my mom, he called her a "***** asshole". So now she is acting VERY childish and is throwing tantrums (and she won't eat). Now, they are avoiding each other, well, my mom is mostly avoiding my dad. So my mom comes to my room and usually stays there for a long time. And they are talking about divorce (one of my worst fears).
oh yeah, a situation very similar to this happened a couple years ago
So, what should i do?

Oh dear you're in a dilemna. Let me think. Speak with your dad first. Guys are usually easier to convince. Tell him that it hurts you to see them both goes on like this and divorce shouldn't be an option. Let him know that your mum was trying to help and perhaps his instructions to her wasn't clear thus the unfortunate happened. Let him know that to lose a wife over a tree is not very smart! Next, go to you mum and advise her that she needs to take care of per physical to "fight" to begin with. No eating may not give her the energy to "fight". Let her know that your dad loves her very much and it was a spur of a moment that unpleasant words came running out. Apologise to her on your dad's behalf. If possible, invite them both out for a simple meal. That should make up. Good luck!

I agree with above posts. Talk to them and tell them how you feel. Tell them that you are scared.
BUT.. I will tell you that these things usually get worked out. It usually looks worse than it is. Some people only know how to communicate by being dramatic. In the meantime.. try and do something good for yourself! Once they've had time to think they will probably realize how ridiculous the argument was.

Let them both know that you're VERY upset. And could they PLEASE try to work out their problem and make up. This is not a very good time of year for a family to be angry with each other.

That's tough. I would let them work it out, but you have to do something. I'd talk to your mother about it, she is more likely to be open with details then your dad is. Either one you talk to, let them know your feelings, too, but be gental.
Good luck
