Right now my life isn't going so well. My older sister is always going out with her friends. My school-life is full of homework and gossip. On top of all of that....my parents. I love them to death, but they always fight. It's a routine when they get home. They would never get physical, but the harsh words make up for it. I try to go into the room and calm them down, but they just ignore me. When their done, there is so much tension in the room. I can't talk to them, they are either working, or fighting. My sister is always out, and she doesn't have that much time either, even if she did, she wouldn't understand. when they fight, she can just leave I don't have many "friends." The ones I do have I can't trust. However, I have not forgotten God, I always turn to him. But every once in a while, I would like to talk to someone who can relate. Someone who can say 'I know exactly what your going through.' Is there anyone else going through this? I need answers, thanks. God Bless <3

they fight because they have problems that they need to deal with. Even though they fight they love you.
Make sure that you stay out of thier way when the fight. Not much you can do about that.
Pull your mom to the side one day when she seems happy. Talk to her tell her how you feel. Do the same with dad. Just talk. Ask them at sepreate time to take you some where like the park, walk with them and talk. Tell them why you want to go to the park. Keep praying and putting GOD first. Life is a test.
Dont give up
know that you always have a friend in the Lord.
Be strong
and I will pray for you to
you just made a friend me. If you need to talk email me if you are not comfortable with that keep talking to the GOD.

I had parents that would fight frequently, sometimes it would get violent and the police would come. What you need to do is find yourself a quiet place, at least 100 yards away from whereever they tend to have their arguments. When people fight, others have a tendency to empathize with one side or the other, and get emotional.
When people get together, such as for children or marriage, there is very often a lack of understanding of the way the other thinks about things. Relationships aught not be sealed until there is a solid communication on both sides, and the ability to forgive.
Two strong minded people will develop their own ideas, and rarely yield on anything where those ideas have been developed. Common ground alone is insufficient for two people to have a functional relationship, because the argument will develop over the uncommon ground. What is more important is how people cope with conflict, than how many things they agree upon.
Faith is a powerful thing, but it also involves choice. Faith without choice is only belief, and people believe in lots of things - like the economy, government, politicians, aliens, scientific theories, and so on. But a stock broker has faith in his understanding of the economy, a politician in government, a voter in politicians, and UFO chasers in aliens.
You can act on your faith by understanding what the beliefs entail, and how they relate to your situation, then applying the ideas. As for your parents argument, children do not have any right over the choices of their parents, and humans in general have no rights over each other. Yet people do have a natural tendency to act like the people they spend time with, and mimic that which seems to work.
If you engage your parents individually in discussions, but instead of argument, look for ways to communicate despite disagreement, they may pick up on your way of thinking, and the arguments between each other may gradually diffuse.

You are in a tough spot. You can't control your parent's fighting, but you can get away from it and stop trying to change them. They do what they do. It is awful for you to be under so much stress. You need someone to talk to. Get some activities you enjoy that take you out of there. Know that they have problems solving problems effectively and that it isn't about you or something you can fix for them. I am truly sorry you are going through this. How lonely you sound.
You can email me anytime. I am a grown up and have a teen of my own and would be heart broken if he felt as you feel. We don't fight much here. We usually time-out if we are getting heated, but he has seen some pretty good arguments too. We talk to him afterward and let him know how we solved it and apologize for letting it get stupid. We try hard to do better than that. Everyone gets mad, but the constant fighting is rough on your happiness. I wish you had a happy place to live. Maybe you should write one of them a letter about how it feels to be you in that house.
I am sure they love you. You sound like a very nice, intelligent person. If I can help, write and vent anytime.

Can you find a church in your area to attend? Find one that has a good youth program, where you can go and meet other people your age. There are a lot of kids your age going through the same problems you are - you are not alone. If you believe in God, then it's a good idea to get with other people who have the same ideals and morals that you do. You have to understand that you cannot solve your parents' problems. They have to work it out alone, and you are not responsible, nor are you the cause of the fighting that is going on between them. They are the adults, and they have to handle their problems like adults. It's unfortunate that they are incapable of doing that now, but eventually, they will.

You can't talk to any of your friends? Are you sure?
Anyway, don't keep trying to stop your parents from fighting; that's just putting more wear and tear on you.
Get out. Go for a walk, go get a soda at the nearest eating establishment, go to the library, go visit a friend.
As for someone to talk to, talk to your school counselor or a teacher you like, or some other adult. You need help in dealing with all this.
Maybe try to talk to your sister and ask if sometimes she'll take you with her.

My parents they fight sometimes. When they do its SCARY. I mean like seriously. I have friends but I dont have REALY friends. The ones where I can do everything with and the ones that I tell everything to. Since I dont, I always go to my room and write in my diary. It makes me feel a whole lot better. I also turn to god but sometimes I feel as if though its not ENOUGH. I feel like talking to someone who understands and actually talks back. So yeah I know how you feel sometimes.
Also my parents dont like me much. I dont know why but thats how I feel. I can never make them proud. Good grades arent enough. They want everything from me. Lately I have been rebelling and paying for it.
Sometimes I'm just tired of my parents always going at me. I feel so...
