Parents Arguing About Me

[Riley2015]

Ok so my dad is constantly harsh and strict on me, giving me punishments, curfews, chores to be done. Ordering me not to do certain things and so on.

Well he is too severe on me and my mum thinks this, she constantly defends me and tells him to ease up on me a bit and as a result they argue. This has been worse lately as mum has begun to allow me more freedom against his wishes whereas before she would go along with him to avoid arguments. Now she insists that he needs to stop being so harsh on me and she goes against some of what he says

I love that my mum does this for me but i hate that it is causing them to argue so much. I don't know what to do :(:confused:

From personal experience, I've come to learn you can't do much except learn to ignore it. It fucking sucks, and maybe you MIGHT be able to talk them out of constantly arguing, but it never happened for me. Sorry bout this :( Maybe you could try talking to them tho? Like set some expectations and stuff so they dont need to argue about it? Idk, GL

well you can try talking to both of them, but at the end of the day there is not much you can do. tbh though, you need someone sticking up for you and, while it sucks they have to fight, I am glad your mom is sticking up for you

i'm glad she is too :)

She's always been good to me, she says i'm her favourite and i'm a bit of a mummy's boy :whoops::whoops::whoops::whoops:

Sadly I see this dynamic between your parents indicative of a strong disrespect occurring between husband and wife.


It's going to get worse before it gets better, and most likely if your dad is controlling of you, look for signs of control he exhibits on the wife (your mom).

My gut tells me it's headed for divorce or sadly (god forbid) a spousal domestic violence dispute, possible murder if say tensions get too high, and someone slaps too hard or something.


Your dad has psych issues and it's probably your paternal grandparents fault.
