What if I'm worried about my parents getting divorced?

I think my parents are getting divorced , my mom was driving me home , and suddenly she asked me “ honey , how would you feel if me and daddy got a divorce ? “ and I told her “ I would be ok with it , and I know it wouldn’t be my fault “ but the truth is I don’t want them to seperate , I know they should divorce because they fight 24/7 , and if they do , my dad’s going to take my half - brother with him , I would really miss my dad and brother , my mom told me not to think about it because they aren’t going to get a divorce because she was just wondering , but I have been thinking about it , should I ask my other brother and sister how they would feel about it ?

Answer #1

If you dare, you could ask her what she meant when she said that. I’m a mum and I wouldn’t talk about that unless it was a way of giving my kids ‘permission’ to ask me more about it. Then you can find out if your fears are real, before you worry more about it or give your brother and sister your concerns.

God bless you all…

hey sounds like what my dad said to me before my parents divorced to be honest im not trying to scare you or anything but that whats I was asked! it may be that there just going through a really rough patch at the moment! I would ask her what she ment by it tho befor jumping to conclusions , and if they do divorce dont blame it on yourself what ever you do, and it first it will seem hard to cope with but it does get easier as time goes by ok! like I said I dont mean to like scare you I jsut htink the truth is better thats all! xxXxx

well you can just to see how they fell bout it, but with your mom it lust could have been a misunderstanding like what if she was meaning someone else that she new what if she was putting herself in somones elses shoes or somthing! but if there is something goin on with wit your parents you could even try talking to them bout it! I hope everything is goin ok with them though!! good luck!! :):):):):):):)

Things will work out for the best in the end. It sounds trivial when your going through it. You probably feel as the world is crashing over you, with nothing to do but watch it crumble. Whether or not your parents divorce, it will work out the way it was meant to be. Some parents fight 24/7, but love is so strong that it keeps them together. Unfortunately sometimes the fights get so overwhelming that a change is necessary to keep the sanity of each member together. Your right, it’s not your fault, and don’t forget that! Just keep in your heart that both your mom and dad love you very much and just like you, they have difficulties and don’t know exactly how to go about dealing with them. As individuals we never stop making mistakes and growing from them!

My parents divorced when I was about five, and my mom chose to move to California leaving my Dad and family all the way in Canada. Somewhere in my childhood I chose to move back up to Canada and live my dad, leaving my brother and mom behind. It was a guilt I fought for years!

We are not in control of our parents decisions, but we do have a choice in how we handle it. No matter how far apart your family is you can always keep them in your heart, and keeping communication lines open is pertinent to doing this. I chose after University to move back to California and wake up each morning to write a detailed e-mail to my relatives up north .. we write back and forth every day! You’ll never stop missing them, and this is going to be most difficult, but just keep your love and faith strong, and it will get better! Don’t forget to include activities in your day that keeps you fulfilled, whether it be helping another our, reading, going to the mall .. whatever it is, you need time to keep your spirits up! Prayer whether your a believer or not is always a good way to start as well! It’s amazing what happens when we voice our concerns out loud, whether it be to someone or no one!

Anytime you need to just let out some feelings feel free to write! Good luck! Alyssa
