(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); I think my parents are getting divorced, my mum says she wants my dad out of the house in another 2 weeks, im in the middle of my GCSE's and feel that this is going to **** up the whole of my school days, im in year 10 and its nearly the summer holidays.

Apparently my dad had a one night stand like 12 years ago, but my dads a good guy, he buys me stuff and takes me too football, my mum just shouts at me and my brother and is never happy?

How will it effect my life, and if they do divorce to i get to choose who to stay with?
Im only asking on here because im not the only one.

Well hang in there bro, it will turn up alright

I just recently went through the same thing, except my mom wasn't being a total bitch. My dad was crying about the whole thing as well. Now, him and my mom are still not together, but we still spend time together, as a family. They hold hands and kiss and stuff, they just don't live with each other anymore.

Hopefully your situation will become similar to mine, where your parents can get along and are happy where they are at.

My opinion is to be COMPLETELYhonest and ask your two parents if you can talk to them, tell them you're worried about them.. And if everything is okay..
If you do decide to do that, VM or PM me after, I'll try to help as best i can..

Choose your path. If your trying to do your GCSE's, do what i do which is stay at a relatives my mum and dad always argue all the time its like a war zone in my house atm i stay at my unlces while i'm studying so its peacefull. As far as your parents go stick with what you feel your comfortable with, if you try speaking to your mum and dad and your mum shouts at you put your hands up and walk out and try speaking with your dad as you and him as i can understand have an understanding of each other. Also most importantly keep with your brother.

Dads are typically the most understanding ( if your a guy) . Because they lived through your days . Moms dont want you to become like a douchebag they may have dated in high school days or something around those lines . As for holding it in , thats a terrible idea . You will have a emotional breakdown now or lather . Id rather have one in privacy then in a public place. The thing about you dads one night stand is no one is perfect . He may even regret it . He did stay with your mother for a very long time so it shows he is committed .I bet your mom isn't a saint either. As for picking the parent , that is up to you . I personally need both in my life.

mine divorced before my entrance exams to a new school (big thing in England, was for 5th best school in country), just don't think about it, stay out of their arguments, think about the pros of divorce, more presents, both parents are usually more sympathetic and nicer to you because they feel sorry for you, also remember, (If you do, sorry if you don't) grandparents, they were a huge help to me when mine split, if you have grandparents, call your grandma up and talk about it properly, as long as you let your emotions out you'll be ok my sister had counselling, but that may be too far....where you from in England?

if you got any questions, ill be happy to ask, I know all about this stuff

Call Dr. Phil

=D

The best way is just to tell em straight mate,
Tell them how you feel,
If not it'll just get worse, get your bro in on the act aswell,
Good luck

That would be good if it ended up like that, then there wouldnt be any arguements and everyone would be happy.

I always find it hard to speak to my dad like that, he spoke to me yesterday about it, he said if they get a divorce he will try keep my at the same school, or he might have to move to scotland for a job.

My dad admits he regrets it and says hes very insecure, he worrys about money alot of the time, he admits hes not perfect but my mum is very stubborn, she gets her ways most of the time
