Give them respect. And know that you can't solve their problems.
You also can't understand their problems. This is a person time for them. You can't fight their battles.
Love them each and understand that although they might not continue their marriage, that they are always your parents.
Best to not take sides unless one parent is abusive emotionally, physically, or verbally. If one is dishonest and not lawful.
Otherwise don't take sides. Love them and don't add to the problems they already have. Let them finish what they need to finish. This is their problem not yours.
Don't blame yourself for their problems.

Divorce is always difficult to deal with. For you and your parents equally. There are a lot of decisions to be made and they must be decided on what is best for you. Although they are getting a divorce they are still equally responsible for your care and well being.
It's likely that you may be getting ideas on how to get them back together and romanticizing about a reunion. But chances are if they split, they have a good reason to do so. At the very least they need time apart. With time it's a possibility they can get back together but it wouldn't be psychologically healthy for you to build a dream on such a possibility you can't directly control. It's best to accept things are they are and make a solid plan for your life that is the best for all interested parties.
You must first decide who you are going to live with based on careful consideration and a discussion with both parents. Next it's necessary to plan your time between the parents so that you continue to maintain a balance in your relationships although they're relationship has severed.

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and figure you are saying "split".....In which case, there truly is nothing YOU can do. Its not between you and them....its them only.....Don't try to interfere. I know this might not be what you want to hear, but I hope you will take it to heart. This is between them. Whatever happened to cause this, happened to them, by them. YOU had nothing to do with it and there is nothing YOU can do about it. I'm not being mean. If you are really upset about this, seek some counceling to get your feelings out and adjusted to the changes in your life if you feel the need. That's not a bad thing either. To seek counceling. It does affect you, in whats happening. I sincerely realize that. Just don't set yourself up for a huge letdown that there is nothing YOU can do........
