How to get my parents together?

Ok, so my mom is going through menopause, and her nerves are totally whack sometimes. My dad on the other hand, isn’t being all that supportive. My mom has some back problems, and can’t do certain chores. My brother and I do what we can, but we can’t make dinner or do the laundry. My dad is home on Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays and is usually home by noon on Mondays. On the days that he does work, when he comes home, he eats dinner, talks w me and my bro for a couple minutes, then goes and sits at is computer until midnight. He’s not doing work, he’s going on various blogs, and watching Greek music videos and so on. My mom asks for help, but he says that he works his a** all day and when he gets home all he wants is dinner. Anyways, this gets my mom mad and then she won’t talk to him for a while. Then he gets all mad because she doesn’t talk to him. And when she does talk to him about the problems that they’re having he doesn’t want to talk about it. What can I do to make them friends again?? By the way, their anniversary is coming up at the end of February, what can my dad get for my mom to make her happy??

Answer #1

Those minutes that your dad takes to talk to you, tell him, let him know what you are feeling, that they are becoing separate. For the aniversary plan something like a day for them alone and give them time to just ou know be together and remember why they got merried. I think that this is just the stage that your mom is going trough and it should be over soon.

Answer #2

I wish my Dad talked to me for a few minutes a day… :(
