My parents cant go 1 week without arguing with each other about the most stupidest things, and they will go on for weeks not talking to each other, my younger sister and I are always feeling insecure and anxious when there not talking, like yesterday my mum wanted to ask my dad something but said I have to come too in case they start arguing!! I said no! I'm not a referee and walked away, she got offended that i wasn't there for her but I don't think she understands how I'm feeling, I've noticed she only seems to care about her own feelings and not others. Im so confused because I hate this situation and I hate arguing with my mum. What should I do?!
 
When your parents act like this and they are both in the same room tell them both, I am not going to take sides, do not ask me to get involved, and ask them if they both realize how this is affecting you.
 
Be as calm as you can and try to talk with one of them. Don't get emotional or raise your voice it they will respond the same. Being a referee might actually help, but only if they are talking to each other not using you as a messenger. They need to work it out, and maybe you can just be a calm rational voice to quell any emotions. I would say something like, we can work this out I just want everyone to be happy im sure none of us enjoy this i know we probably all want the same thing I don't know if that helps but I feel for you.
