Question

Maybe you often have arguments with your parens about clothes , homework,friends and many other things. But what’s going on when your parents fight with each other? Most teenagers feel sad or afraid when their parents fight. They might think their parents don’t love each other any more and that their arguments will lead to a divorce(导致离婚).

In fact, it is normal for parents to disagree and argue sometimes. They might disagree about important things like jobs and family decisions. They might even disagree about little things that don’t seem important at all---like what’s for dinner. Maybe sometimes parents feel so strongly about their differences that it may lead to arguments. However, these arguments are often over quickly. Parents may say sorry and make up ,and the family returns to normal.

As a family member, you should find out what it really means when your parents fight. When your parents get angry with each other, they might say things they don’t really mean.Most people may lose their cool, so if your parents are fighting, don’t worry too much about it. Try to find a good way to solve it .

If your parents’ fighting really bothers you, you might find it hard to sleep or go to school. If this happens, try talking to your parents about their behavior.
