Denise32 agony auntHow often do you visit your parents?

I suppose you COULD ask them how they're doing and if there is anything they want from you, or would like you to do for them.

BUT: keep in mind that if they haven't discussed their problems with you, it's probably because they don't CHOOSE to.

I would advise you to tread very carefully here - otherwise, they may resent you assuming there are things that irritate one another and tell you to mind your own business in no uncertain terms!

The exception would be, however, if you suspect your father is being physically - even verbally - abusive toward your mother - or she to him.

Hopefully some of the other aunts and uncles will have some good responses.

Good luck!

cute angel agony auntWell parents do have their problems and some times they forget that it affects their kids..and I see this is totally affecting you..well they are mature adults and should try and handle the problem on their own rather than creating a scene..either work on the problem and move separate ways!all you can do is sit them down and tell them how its affecting you and how you can't see them fight..I'm sure they love youand will try to solve it if not for them but for you:) stay strong!if possible try getting in touch with a relative if you can have their input or they can help in any which way..
