new at this, this is great therapy
My parents are getting a divorce after 26 years of marriage. Me and my brother are getting dragged in the middle of it. Basically my mom is going through menopause and having a break down, for which she blames my dad completely. My dad is freaking out because he has no idea what's going on or what he did. He stopped eating and all he does is drink beer all day long while my mom tries to start fights. He's finally had enough and is selling both houses (I live in one in a rent to own type agreement) So that leaves me broke, looking for a home for me and my dog, and a full time student, while trying to be supportive to my parents, and keeping things rolling with bodybuilding.... just a rough time guys, needed to vent.
what sucks is that when women get like this they fuckin dont give a SHIT about their kids
dont i know it , im 44 and my mother is the worst example of a woman ive ever met..............and i wonder why i cant put up with womens bs, no man should have to, 16 or 45................
This is very ignorant...
I don't know what happened between you and your mum and i won't
make any assumptions about it. If you were in some way mistreated then
it is very unfortunate and I feel for you.
I could say the very same thing about my grandmother as what you said
about your mother, who had the gall to sue her SON and use a child
as a weapon against him. I won't go into detail, but it takes a special kind
of person to do something like that IMO.
Your attitude suggests that any kind of dispute is somehow the woman's
fault. Some times it will be and sometimes it won't. Blanket statements
like that are just plain dumb.
IMO, we should refrain from passing judgements and simply provide the
support that this board's members are looking for when they come here
to vent and share whatever issues they may be having.
To the OP:
I don't believe that the time your parents spent together in their marriage
is not 'down the drain' just because they are having a falling out now. They
must have had some good times in there and of course 2 children
together who I am sure they BOTH love very much.
In times of heated arguments both people often become childish, simply
trying to hurt each other more then the last. As hard as it probably is, be
mature, be supportive of both of them, be neutral and most of all be
strong. You will cop a lot of flak from both of them, having someone to
talk to offload this burden will help very much.
Good luck, I hope that this ends as quickly as possibly for you and them
regardless if they stay together or go their separate ways.
