Not again

My parents are fighting right now . When they started fighting (about 30 minutes ago) I went to my room. As I was walking to my room, my mom stopped me and told me something. She said "Start thinking about who you want to live with becuase I'm not going to live with this anymore".
She's wanted to leave my dad for 10 or more years, but she never has. I don't know what to do anymore. I hate them fighting so much. I just want them to get a divorce already!! They only hurt eachother. Why can't they see that?

Aww hun, I'm sorry for what you are having to go through. There were a few years I remember my parents being the same way, and I too wished they would divorce. They never did, and surprisingly seem to be doing better now. I love the song you quote in your sig by Pink but it sucks when you can relate. Have you ever sat down to tell them how much their fighting upsets you?

tsol25,
My parents have been acting like this for 17 years now. I feel like it's never going to get better. It's one of my favorite songs. It does suck when you can relate. I tried to tell my parents, but they just place the blame on the other person. "She did....." "He did......" kind of stuff.

Ugh, my marriage was just like your parents & I know it was horrible for our daughter. I hid out in my career most of the time to stay away from fighting with my husband.

I know that after 33 years of being married to him, I finally left & have been so very happy since that point & get along so much better with our daughter. I felt trapped awhile because of so much debt & the house not being worth what we paid, so there wasn't any money if we did divorce.....sadly, parents can want out but financially end up being trapped. Know it's a horrible place for you to be.....but isolate your self from the fighting as much as you possibly can & don't do like some children who blame themselves for their parents fighting because it has nothing to do with the children.

I am sorry that you are going through this....I understand what it's like from the horrible marriage side & the fighting, but also being sensitive to how it did effect our daughter without really being able to do anything about it.

Thank you eskielover,
I hope they figure things out soon.
I'm just really worried about what would happen if they did get a divorce. My mom is from Germany, so she might go back. I might not ever get to see her again if that happens .
My mom did say once that she didn't have the money to live on her own. I guess that's why she's still here.
I worry some times if the things I do and don't do make them fight more. I know that's not true, but I still wonder.
