I am sad, guys..

Dear Marlin, I'm really sorry that your parents fight and you suffer. I don't want to say anything against your parents as you may not like it since they are your parents. but believe me I totally understand what you are going through as my son has also suffered a lot because of me and my husband. We used to fight and fight and sometimes the fights would be really ugly and this poor fellow who's just eight would take in all of it, sometimes scream at us and tell us to stop fighting or sometimes simply ignore it. My parents and some of our friends told us that we should stop it since our child was suffering and then I decided enough is enough. I still remember how bad I felt when my parents fought and I'm 41, I still get jittery today even if my parents so much as argue. Don't worry. You are not the only person to go through this. At least you are 19 and old enough to pursue your own interests. I know it is easier said than done but why I'm saying this is because I've lived through this in my own family. My son is only 8 and is helpless. But you should ignore such incidents and simply be involved with your own interests. If parents like us are so selfish that we just couldn't be bothered about our kids it's best to ignore such parents. I often tell my son to ignore us. He's small it's difficult for him to do so but you are old enough. Take care and don't worry. I know it hurts but don't worry. You are not alone in this. Take care of yourself my boy. You have a life ahead of you. And, yes, don't forget to pray. My heart went out to my son each time I heard him praying to God for peace at home. Also try talking to your parents and tell them you suffer each time they fight. Take care and look after yourself.

I'm sorry to know about that and I can precisely feel what you feel because I've lived in the fightings and quarrels from my parents for a very long time,exceeding 10yeas,anyway I don't want to count it. It did influenced me at that time, making me a closed child, sleepless at night. I hate them,and I don't want to go back home. No sooner than I left home for the collage, I had turned into another one, bright,lively and popular with everyone. I don't konw what had happened to me,afterall,it's a good change! And now I seldom remeber what my father and mother had done wrong to me but just their love on me. They had fighted and quarrelled but they never stopped loving me,that's the point. They just didn't konw how to protect me. Try to communicate with them. If it doesn't work, try to ignor the fightings and the noise. I konw it could be a hard work, what I'm trying to tell you is, all of these bad things are just temperary. You'll live a new life in the future. What's more, don't let your children suffer the same!

You can not make peace between your parents. They need to do that themselves. You can tell them how much it hurts and bothers you when they fight.
