My parents often quarrel with each other for small things when I was in my childhood.It left shadow in my heart.I sometimes even thought that they shouldn't have met each other.One time I even got away from home to show that I didn't want them to quarrel any more.If your parents often quarrel,what would you do?I'd appreciate to share with your opinion.

I think a little quarrelling is normal as everyone who lives together have little spats, I know it is an awful position to be in, I was lucky my parents didn't argue all that much when I was little but did later on, they are both gone now but I know they still loved each other and it was just a normal thing, I see married couples today that almost come to fist fights and the very next day it is like nothing has happened so I think maybe as hard as it is for you, they could very well be jut letting off the frustrations of life out...I bet they still love each other very much...

Yes,I believe they love each other.But sometimes they can't control their feeling very well.When I see some old couples walking hand in hand on the streets,I feel moved.I think they must have overcome many difficulties and have experienced a lot.I believe when my parents become old they'll feel they're made for each other. Thanks a lot to share your opinion with me!

I will try to avoid them. They will scold anyone who get into their sight. But luckily my parent now together very well, less quarrel now.

When parents quarrel in front of children or even when they think the children can't hear them, it hurts. If you are old enough to get away from the home when these quarrels occur, I'd encourage you to go to a friend's home, the library or a park. If you can't leave the home, put on some headphones and listen to some music that you enjoy or is relaxing for you. One other thing you can do is send an anonymous letter to each of your parents, telling them how hurtful it is for you to hear them arguing with each other and maybe they'd be happier apart. Maybe you could also tell them that you'd be happier if they were apart. It's a tough line to walk, but if you can assert yourself to your parents and help them understand how harmful this is for you, maybe they can find some way to live with each other or live apart from each other. Good luck and keep posting!
