What to do if your mum and dad are secretly fighting?

Answer 1

• Most parents 'secretly fight' (called arguing) because they have problems and they may disagree on many things, but it is normal to a point. Caring parents save their arguing until the children are not around so they do not upset them and they probably are not aware that you can hear them. This does not mean your parents are going to get a divorce so try not to worry and do not think you are always the cause for their arguing. No matter what the age the child is they have a right to sit down with their parents and ask why they are arguing and that it upsets them. Many people argue and it is a way to get their frustration out but in most cases the persons will cool off or mend their problems and the arguing will stop.

Answer 2

If you suspect that your parents are secretly fighting, it's important to approach the situation with sensitivity and empathy. Firstly, find a suitable time to speak with them individually, expressing your concerns and offering support. Encourage open communication and suggest seeking therapy or counseling to resolve their conflicts in a healthy manner. Remind them that their happiness and the family's well-being are important.
