Turn on something that has headphones and try to ignore it. The whole world is stressed right now and many married couples are having trouble with money and being overworked. It isn't easy to live with this happening in your home but it IS more common than you may realise. The more stress from bills, sickness, layoffs or other expenses the more arguments. Money has become a major factor in social situations and families are social. Be patient, get a part time job that gets you away for your own 'time out'. Even if its just doing errands for your neighbors. Good luck and please don't take it personally. It's the stress.

Tell your parents how you are feeling, that the stress of hearing them argue is having an affect on you too. Letting something like this go will affect how you see relationships in the future so you need to learn how to deal with these situations now.

First of all... DO NOT go to your school guidance counselor or psychologist UNLESS YOU ALREADY KNOW AND TRUST THEM! These people are not necessarily wise or moral just because they have been placed in these positions. You may end up in a foster home or worse if you are not careful about whom you talk to about these sorts of problems. If you can't talk rationally with your parents by yourself you should either find someone you TRUST to talk to or you should perhaps continue to seek more anonymous advice like you've done here. Another person suggested that you plan for your independence and I concur. You may just need to simply get away from your parents and their fighting at some point. Good luck... but remember, just because someone is a professional does not mean that you can always trust them.

Unfortunately, you can't do anything about your parents arguing, except to try not to stress them out more (ie. do your homework, chores, etc and don't break the rules) Other than that, stay out of the way. Join a club, a team, or volunteer. Anything to get out of the house and do something productive with your time. They will find their own way in time.

Your parents may be going through a stressful time, for any number of reasons. You don't have to be stressed. Either go outside for a walk or put on your headset and do your homework.
Whatever they're going through may be temporary. If, however, you feel you are in danger of being assaulted, call 911. You may have to go into a temporary foster home, however, it may be the wakeup call that your parents need.

I would tell them about it. Tell them you love them very much but it hurts you to listen to them argue. Ask them if there is anything you can do to help them. They may be headed for a divorce or maybe its just the way they are with each other! Let them know its taking its toll on you and it needs to stop!

Try to ignore it or get out of the house so you don't have to put up with it as much. Get a hobby to keep you busy. Also, exercise helps with stress so maybe join a gym or start running everyday.

In a calm moment talk to them seperately. Let them know you are upset about their argueing and ask them if they can have any disagreement that involves yelling someplace you are not.
If it involves hitting call the police.
If they don't, try to find a safe place away from home (Boys and girls club, library, after school program etc.)
Whatever you do, don't let them pull you into their fighting.

You need to talk to your parents about their arguing. Explain to them that it's stressful for you. Maybe ask them if they think that it's wise to maybe go see a marital counsler. Hope this helps.

i can relate.my parents argue a lot too.
whenever they argue don't get involved,
go do something else to get your mind off of
it because there isn't anything you can do about
it anyway. have faith in your parents
that everything will end up fine.
