Why am I not surprised you dad threatened to divorced her? Ask her to seek God... it will help calm her mind. That is the cheaper alternative to seeing a psychologist.Originally posted by bismarck:i've tried over the weekend to avoid her, at meals, daily activities etc. avoided going out with her. not just her, my family.
a few weeks ago, i was unhappy with my mum so i just went home myself. then there was some big quarrels at home and my dad initiated divorce with my mum. (witnessed 2nd out of 4 times they've mentioned it). my sis blamed me and dragged me into a fight.
my dad finally backed down and by the time i came back frm camp, they were ok. so frm then on, i tried to control my temper by not flaring up and keeping quiet. for the last 2weeks family was ok until last mon.
my dad knows abt it.
even my dad still wants a say in waht i study in UniOriginally posted by casino_king:Parents have a hard time accepting that. They want to be able to control you like when you were a kid.

isn't the problem obvious just by reading the 2nd paragraph?
i don't think you know your mum just recently so you should understand very well that avoiding her does not equal to avoiding conflict altogether. since you don't like to be delayed, why didn't you just open your mouth and ask what's keeping her? to her, it would seem like you're having a mood swing because one moment you agreed to go out with her then the next moment you just totally ignored her without giving her a clue. why only open your golden mouth after she began throwing her tantrums?
my conclusion is [b]YOU could have avoided all this.
you can't change anything about your mum but you sure can do something about yourself.
do your part to keep your family together. good luck.

I suggest you do a search on 'bismarck' and read up all his family issues?Originally posted by NewAge:have a heart to heart talk with yah mum. Its hard for a parent to apologise to their kid, even a simple sorry is hard, remember that.
i guess nobody can give him any advice anymore.Originally posted by M©+square:I suggest you do a search on 'bismarck' and read up all his family issues?
It dated a few years back till now.
To me, he didn't need advice, he needs solutions.Originally posted by dragg:i guess nobody can give him any advice anymore.![]()
we gave advice according to the story you gave us. but you left out this part, it will naturally affect our judgement to some extent.Originally posted by bismarck:i did tell her i didnt want to wait for her anymore prior to returning to my room. i told her i am not going out since she is still doing her emails.
apparently some of u got something against me.![]()
