I feel so bad! Why don't you tell them how you feel and maybe they'll consider not getting divorced.

First of all, sorry that you have to go through this...your parents can no longer stand each other...why try to place them in a situation that they don't want to be in, they may resent you later on...let them do whatever it is that they want to do to make themselves happy...what good are they to you if they are miserable and depressed? How cohesive would your homelife be if they are not getting along with themselves and you? It's sad that it has to happen and that folks can't take your needs into consideration also, but you don't want to keep them together if they don't want to...it must really be tough for you right now, I'm sorry...but you realize that no matter what they care and love you loads and no one wants to see their homelife torn apart...when people feel trapped or that they can no longer survive (whether it be physical/psychologial/emotional/financial) they need to find a way out...does this make sense? Let them deal with their own poo-poo and let them take responsiblity for their decisions...Good luck...if you want to talk...pm me...

I am so sorry :( As I said before, I started to cry for you. :bawling:

I can't believe of all people, this happens to one of my best friends! But just think, you still have your friends to be there for you, nobody can take that away from you.

I hope things work out alright.

I know what you are going through. My parents divorced when I was in the 6th grade. If you would like to talk, please feel free to PM me. The important thing to remember is that it is never the child's fault. Sometimes adults who have lived together for many years find that they can no longer live together. When one parent moves out, it is very hard at first. Everything will change, but soon you will see you can still be happy. Both of your parents still love you, they just don't love each other anymore. If you are having problems, talk to your teachers... they can help. Also, tell you parents how you feel. Ask if they can arrange for you to talk to someone like a therapist. I know when my dad moved out, taking to a stranger helped me get my fustration out and also he helped me to understand why my parents split and that they both still loved me. Good luck and remember, it's not your fault.

It's hard to have something to say in this situation, when there isn't much to be said. Good job Iroc, well said.

Omg i am so sorry to hear that my advice is do what people say and tell them how you feel and think of pros why they should stay together because i know it would be hard choosing who to stay with one week and having ot choose so tell them how you feel and tell them why you think they shouldn't get divorce tell them why it is going to be hard in your life just go with your heart too hope this helped you :)

like some others said: maybe you should just let your parents be happy. i mean, if they are fighting at home all the time (like my parents do :() then it is probably for the better. and sometimes i wish my parents would get a divorce because like i said they are always fighting. like today my mom was like "i'll just move in with my mother!" and then my dad was like "no i'll leave!" it was pretty tough to hear them arguing about who was going to move out!?
I'm really sorry and i hope things get better!

Mine are also, and I just remembered one thing: It's not your fault. Your parents were not happy, and it's probably for the best.

I'm so sorry to hear that. You try and keep your chin up, and remember that its not your fault. I think it perfectly natural for you to want your parents to remain together and have thoughts about how to make that happen. My parents divorced when I was about your age too, and I didn't really give up the idea of them being back together until I was almost 18. I do believe that divorce is just as hard or harder on the kids than on the parents. Someone in an earlier post reccomended you talk to a school counselor. Thats a great idea, if you need to, you know they are there to help. You might also want to bring up to your parents about letting your teacher(s) know what's going on. They can also be very helpful. I'm sorry for your hurt, but you'll be ok!

Bballman, I know it is always sad to face reality. But sadly, nothing in life is perfect. You will have to grow up dealing with your own fears and the best you can do is face the reality, doesn't matter what! Life is really good sometimes but really bad other times. If your parents have decided to divorce, it is because they know why they did it, probably, they were not getting well together, and, they think it is the best option. Bballman, what you have to do now is face the problem, do not avoid it because it will get worse. Don't try to fix it, because when relationships reach this period, it is because it should be like that. After your parents think more about the situation, they might realize they were mistaken and they really harmed you. So, don't let this get you down! Dude! Where is the Bballman we all know?
Remember this: "Life Is Not Perfect"
And maybe, in some way, you might end up thinking it was a good decision, since being separate made them happy, if they are happy, then why do you worry?
This is just my opinion about problems of this grade. You have to learn to face them, and don't let them bring you down. I know it is difficult, but you have to be strong enough to face it. Once more, don't let this bring you down dude! If you need more moral help, tell me, I don't like looking at sad people, this is reality, and we should face it! Don't Worry, Be Happy! -Listens to Bob Marley-

This might make you smile:
