Question:
my parents have been arguing alot lately. Both seem to have something that they are keeping from each other. Not affairs or anything. Well, my mom for example, does not want to move to Florida next summer. My dad does cause he wants to take care of my grandparents.Anyway, there is talk of a divorce, and I REALLY don't want them to, but I don't know what to do. I know God has them together for a reason. They've been married for 36 years and have raised about 40 kids together. What should I do? Any advice?
Answer:
cant your dad just fly out to florida every once in a while, or have them move over where you are?
Answer:
you'd think. It's not like they're doing that bad. Well, my grandma hurt her back, but other than that, they're fine. It's not that my mom is against moving to florida all together, she just does'nt want to go until my brothers are out of school. Plus, the school that they would go to is racist, and one of my brothers is black.My other brother is borderline retarded, and people just don't accept him. My dad is just being selfish. He knows his parents don't like my mom. Plus, it's not like he does'nt have another brother down there that can help them. His siter in law is even a nurse, but frankly when we're not visiting them, they don't have anything to do with my grandparents.

Talk to your parents,tell them how you feel. Pray with them. Maybe ask them if you all can go to counseling together. Talk to your pastor.
Answer:
The best thing you can do for your parents is pray for them. Don't get in the middle of their arguements, you don't need that. Be their child and let them handle things the way they see fit even if you feel it is wrong. God is bigger than all that is going on between them and let him work as you pray your heart out. I've been there when I was 12, it's scary but God intervined and he worked. Just be a light to both your parents and maybe if you're bold enough you could talk to your mom about how God is in control of every situation even the ones that are tough. Just be careful not to see as if you're taking sides because you don't want to be in the middle of an arguement.
