All parents fight sometimes, but if yours are fighting all the time, it can cause a great deal of stress. Find effective ways to deal with it.
Step 1: Leave the room when they are fighting
Leave the room when your parents are fighting, even if they’re fighting on the phone. This will give you some needed distance and help you realize it is between them, not you.
Step 2: Get the fight out of your mind
Get the fight out of your mind as quickly as possible by focusing on the fact that it’s about them – not you.
Step 3: Do something fun and exercise
Keep your spirits up with hobbies like gardening or reading. Take a long walk, or go running, biking, or swimming. Physical activity help release stress.
Tip
Talking about it helps, too; tell a trusted friend, school counselor, or another family member what is going on.
Step 4: Arrange for a family meeting
Arrange to have a family meeting or discussion about it after things calm down. It might be in a few hours or a few days; whatever works for all involved.
Step 5: Have a discussion with them that focuses on you
Tell them how their fighting makes you feel, using “I feel” statements. Tell them what you would like them to change, using “I need” statements.
Did You Know?
Did you know? Research confirms that family violence interferes with child development, causing higher risk for problems in adulthood.
I am 30 years old. I moved out over 10 yeras ago. My parents still argue. My mom calls me and cries. Then I talk with my dad on the phone and he's also in a bad mood. I feel like in kindergarten. How do I sign them for couples therapy?

I’m literally crying rn because there fighting
I am worried rn my mum made my dad stop using his room it’s because of one fight they have I think they’ll get divorced
I honestly lost all hope in my parents and I’m just here with them because I need there money so I can have a good education and get a job and live away from them. I don’t care if they get divorced or anything.
my stepmoms arguing with my dad rn in the hotel and broke glass and started hitting on the walls.. I’m kinda scared and just vented to a stranger on roblox about it which sort of calmed me down
Honestly, it suckes the life out of me, whenever I am somewhere else I feel better, as soon as I get "home" my parents will scream at each other in the next hours either way, and I just feel empty, I don't even care anymore, I just want to dissappear to another place. I feel bad for them honestly, but I spend my 17 years talking with them about it, reasonable and calm enough to know, it won't change eitherways, they even come at me with this when I try to stop them, so thanks a lot /j. I feel like my hearing got worse too, because they are yelling very loudly and I started having trouble hearing people talking with me, or maybe it's a problem because I tend to zone out and daydream sometimes. Man, I even dropped out of school because I couldn't concentrate on studying at home, next time rather go to a friend or a damn forest to study. I am honestly just done, I feel like they fight more than they talk and are both just miserable, I feel bad for them, but it's not my job to fix their relationship
Its hard to have a family meeting like an open conversation to tell them what we feel because they never care. I wish i have different parents.
I’m currently downstairs hiding from my parents. My mom is from Japan and my dad is from America, and my mother just told my older sister (I was eavesdropping) that she will be going back to Japan. They just finished a screaming match which started a few hours ago when my dad said something about statistics proving that men are smarter than women, but I wasn’t really listening so I don’t know what happened or who’s side to take. I know I shouldn’t be listening to my parents fight, but it’s really hard not to when they are yelling at the top of their lungs. They fought last week as well, and my mom said that she was going back then as well. My thoughts are so disorganized, my heart is beating really fast, and I’m shaking right now. I don’t know what to do. I want to live the rest of my life with both parents. This sucks.
thank you ❤️
"Sometimes i get the shivers too…. comfort me too fellow people"😭😭
I'm always emotional when they argue violently🥲
At this point my parents arguing is normal and i even walk between them just get a drink
I do all of these things except the family meetings but it doesn't work it just makes me feel worse and more upset

I don't wanna drag u down with my sad story of my parents…but at least we can learn a lesson from this,that we need to be so careful of whome we're chosing to spend the rest of our lives with
My parents used to fight when I was younger. Now they claim to be the best of friends. That's what I call Life. Experience
I was in a very traumatic experience with mh parents
My dad is trying to swing at my mum with a frying pan
I’m literally scared if my dad just comes to my moms room and just beats her. This is just my life. I’m getting used to it.

I have no one beside me to say"everything is gonna be fine"..i just pray God please help me. i can't take this anymore. 🙏🏻
im numb to this 💀
girl bye my family isnt gna do a family meeting
I'm writing this right after my parents had a heated argument. After having a hectic day, when I reached home I just wanted to relax a bit. I had shower and was sitting in my room and suddenly I heard my dad yelling at my mom. I always used to keep my door closed while they had arguments before but I decided not to do it today. I was listening to what they were arguing about and it was because of one silly thing. It has always been that way since I can remember from my childhood. Their argument always gives me anxiety and later depression but today I just had severe anxiety attack. It felt like all the anxiety I felt as a child and teenager just came back all at once to me today. Right now my body is shaking after the attack. I'm angry at myself for not saying things in a order.
I don't have any friends to share what I'm going through and I never had any as kid. I have always buried my feelings inside me and now I'm just used to it but I can't take it anymore. I'm tired of this. I'm not able to concentrate on anything. When I talk about this with my elder brother he tells me to ignore it. How can I ignore it when it is affecting me mentally, emotionally and physically? The reason I don't have friends is because my parents don't like me socialising with anyone. Idk how am I surviving.
When I look at other families in my neighborhood, they seem to look happy together. And I don't have to go far to look for examples for a happy family, my brother's wife has a lovely family and they have an incredible bond between them.
Because of my parents arguing and yelling at each other, I'm jealous and angry of those couples who have brilliant connection and love. And i better not say anything about my relatives. They are the worst. That's it.
I don't have anyone else to share what I'm going through. The situation in which I'm right now is quite weird.
So basically I'm 22 years old and I'm currently unemployed. It's been over 1 and half year since I got graduated from engineering. I have given many interviews and got rejected everytime. So I decided to take up a course to build a skill which would take 6 months to complete. Initially this course was taking place offline so it was great for that period. But then the people in institute said that they'll be taking classes online which means I don't have any reason to go out. For few weeks I was attending classes from my home and everyday i had to hear my parents yelling at each other. So I decided to lie to my parents that the institute will be taking classes offline. So since that day, I'm going out for 6-7 hours and traveling to different parts of the city to just stay away from my parents and have some peace at some random park and attending classes in different cafes.
I had tried to speak with my parents about what I'm feeling after they had their argument in the past but instead they understanding about my feelings, they scolded me.
Now I feel like the way out for me from this forever is to wait until my course is over so that I can get a job, get financially independent and leave the house or convince my parents for further education in foreign University or I have a deep interest in Air Force and join the academy and I can always remain away from my parents forever.
My parents are fighting in this exact moment. And yes…here I am.
Arguing going on currently 😢

thanks for helping. it helps a lot my mom is crying bc of my dad and the fight alwasy starts for dad. tyms so much im gonna sub to you it really helps a lot
I'll definitely make sure my kids will never have to go through this hell, like one night they search for such a video crying in their bed.
What I learnt from my parents is that if the relationship with your partner is not good enough for a child to grow, its better getting divorced. Please don't drag an innocent child to your hell of trauma.
My dad is fighting with my mom things she is cheating on my dad with another guy
I just saw my parents fighting,i don't i always cry after their fight my father is full of himself and my mother has this ego,I don't know what to do , when ask her to stop my mother is like why you care this is not your problem.But when i saw the comment section i realised that i am not alone and i am writing this while i am crying

My parents fought 1 hour earlier and I ran to my room and cried. Now my mother just left the house and I'm really scared that she doesn't come back tonight or get a divorce….Lets hope this kind of fight will turn alright in the whole world and for me……
Every night, every day, every week, every month. And also- why does the criteria need a caring honest parent- yea everyone here is screwed.
