My mom and dad are divorced and I am having a bad time what should I do?

Answer 1

Realize it is not your fault and is out of your control. After things are settled try to have a healthy relationship with both , and do not discuss your relationship back and forth with each parent.

Answer 2

First of all recognize that your parents are having a bad time too. They did not get a divorce because of you or anything that you did. Adults make decisions that affect others and sometimes these choices hurt innocent people. I was 12 when my parents got a divorce and I was devastated. That was 40 years ago and back then, none of my friends parents were divorced. The only people I could talk to were my sisters.
Talk to a good friend that has gone through this. Do you have any adult relatives or trustworthy neighbors that can help you with this? Maybe you can talk to a school counselor.
Be the best kid you can be. Understand that your parents have a lot of stuff going on and their lives are changing drastically. Don't take sides and if one of your parents try to make you choose, tell them you love them both and won't let them put you in the middle.
Good luck to you. Your life is going to change but sometimes (believe it or not) it is even better.

Answer 3

Your mom and dad are divorced and your having a bad time. You cannot do anything. Its not your fault. You are a great person. You are fine and will be fine.

The only thing you can do is feel good. I dont mean feel good about the situation but dont concentrate on it. Trust me, the more you concentrate on it the longer your "bad time" will last. Focus on things that make you feel good. I know... easier said then done. So how about this, wallow for a bit and when you realize that it gets you nowhere quick, youll get yourself into a better frame of mind. Do things that make you happy and keep that happy feeling inside. If you feel bad you will only attract" bad" situations, people and circumstances.

You are fine and are going to be fine. Take Care.

Answer 4

These words from a song
written by Chris Eaton
and sung by Sheila Walsh

Are you weary?
Are you frightened?
When you go to bed
Do you leave the light on?
When the cold wind blows
to disturb you peace,
Do you lock the door
So no one else can see?

Broken promises have left their mark on you
In your unbelief, one thing you must hold to...

When the road becomes to rough
When you're ready to give up
When your crying out for love...
God is faithful
When you're peace cannot be found
He will never let you down
You have chosen solid ground
God is faithful

Np one said it would be easy
To let go of all the worry
But it can be done
He has paid the price
And His Mercy runs to every broken life
We will never be worthy of His Healing
But all He asks of you is that you would be willing

When the road becomes too rough
When you're ready to give give up
When you're crying out for love
God is faithful
When you're peace cannot be found
He will never let you down
You have chosen solid ground
God is faithful

Answer 5

Try and tell both your parents how you feel, and also talk to other family members. I'm sorry that you're going through a rough time. Remember that God will be there for you when things seem to be crumbling down. Don't give up hope. God bless! I'll pray for you.

Answer 6

How old are u? can u tell us...
if you are teens plz think twice before you think about doing anything bad, sometimes love doesnt end with happy ending. Thing will get sour sometimes, and if that wont cure, meaning have to stop taking it. so its end up with divorcing. Please do understand tht. Try to more understanding natural way, later u will think twice about doing anything worse.

Answer 7

I'm sorry about your situation.
The best thing to do is to relate it to the old saying "Living well is the best revenge."
Obviously, revenge has no relevance here, but now the only option you have is to make your own livelihood as successful as possible.
If there's a possibility that you can reunite your parents, by all means go for it, but for now, you're on your own. Good luck.

Answer 8

Answer 9

Try to speak with your folks. They will assure you that it has nothing to do with you. They love you, want nothing but the best for you, and this may be the best solution for all concerned.
However, there will be down days. And those are the days you need to verbalize your thoughts/feelings. Do NOT try to surpress or ignore your emotions.

Answer 10

Start by knowing that their problems aren't yours and that you
aren't the cause. Stay out of the melee and attempt to build
solid relationships tih each of them (NEVER play one against
the other like most younguns do when their parents are to-gether)
Look to other family members (Aunts,Uncles, Grandparents etc
if you need more support.

keep the faith -- God loves ya
