Give your answer to this question below!.
As a person who was constantly drug into the midst of my parents’ wars before their divorce, I urge you to stay out of it as much as possible. My mom accused my dad of cheating, and I completely took his side and said she was being paranoid and crazy, my dad nodding in agreement the whole time. Well, guess who was actually doing the deed and lying to all of us about it? Yep, good ol dad. That was a not so great feeling and a big betrayal. Looking back, I wish so much that they would have left me out of it and I would have left the house or gone to a friend’s when they started their crap. I finally got it together and told both of them NEVER to talk to me about the other again. My point, I guess, is that it’s NOT your responsibility and you can never really know what goes on in any other couple’s marriage, parents, friends, strangers, whoever. If they separate, it will be their decision and there’s not a thing in the world you can do about it. Actually, they might be happier after the initial shock. If they are not happy now, it seems kind of selfish for you not to want them to separate and move on to opportunities to be happier. It’s very difficult as their kid to see that big picture, but they are just people like all the rest of us. Try to take care of yourself, graduate and live your own life, not theirs. A very hard-learned lesson on my part and I hope it helps you somehow. Good luck.
Stay out of it. This is their business. For good or ill you need to not be involved as much as possible.
