You want to know what sucks? When parents fight, that's what sucks. My parents continue to fight over stupid things, like when dinner is going to be and what my mom can do after work. But they're not just small arguments, no, they are full blow scream fests. My mom tries to get my dad to understand that she works more than he does, and my dad's just used to eating nice and early. My dad's used to eating early because he's was used to his mother being home all the time, I think he'd like it better if my mom didn't work. Today, however, my mom was getting so pissed off at my dad. "I just want to leave here" my mom said to my after my dad left the room.
That was three hours ago and now they are back on speaking terms and even sitting in the same room. It surprises me how they can want to leave each other one minute and love each other the next. This whole love hate thing is playing with my emotions too much! I wrote a story for this post however I lost it, so I will be sure to post it tomorrow!
Happy St. Patrick's Day! (or Evacuation Day if you live in my county!)

Maggie, parents never seem to realize the awful effects their arguments have on the kids. It's like the kids presence is totally forgotten about when they argue! And of course humans absolutely love to be, right! We love to argue too! Like we live for the day when we can pick a good fight! I have one suggestion for you, no guarantees, just a suggestion. Get your mom and dad together in one room, with their attention on you and nothing else. Tell them how much you hate it when they argue, and how it makes you feel. Be honest, not insulting, respectful, but be direct, and finally ask them if they would prefer you weren't around? Then let the conversation, if any, flow. But make it clear to them, "Make up your minds, either be in love with each other and treat each other that way, or decide you don't love each other and separate!" Parents hate it when their kids show more maturity than they do! Be gentle! Take Care! Don
