Question by Marlon D: Parents at the verge of divorce? Advice would be great.?
Basically, long story short, my mom “thinks” my dad is having an affair with another woman. It’s really hard to keep this short but, my mom has told me all her evidences, proofs etc. for me to see that my dad is cheating on her. I personally can’t say she’s right though, because I haven’t seen my dad with the “other woman” with my own eyes, but her reasoning seems legit.
Now as for my dad, whenever a heated argument sets up, he decides to leave the house and to go to his brothers house (my uncle). After a couple of days, you know when things are cooled down, my dad will come back. But everything starts over again, they start arguing and shitt. omg. It’s really a shame because my dad keeps coming back, but then he’s forced to leave so things dont get worse. Sometimes I feel like my mom has to bring up the situation every single time, in a bad way. Like they’ll never sit down, and have a mutual conversation.
Well really, this has been going on for a while and I really don’t know what to do. My dad has told me in person, that he doesn’t have a woman. Straight to my face, real talk, he doesn’t. Then my mom, is telling me all this legit proof, and its convincing me my dad is actually having an affair, or had one. I really don’t know what to say, should I tell my mom to just forgive and forget, so things will get better? Or should they really have a divorce? I’m just scared that if they do, it might be the wrong decision. But I’m up for anything.
What should a 15 year old kid do to try and help things with my parents, or then again, should I just leave this crap alone. It hurts me because my 7 year old sister has to watch this, and it’s going to be an emotional scar for her when she grows up.

I would just try and talk more to your dad about who this lady is and where he meet her. Also I wouldn’t take sides since this isn’t your fight and i would try and tell your mom since it seems you are together more to just sit down and TALK with him instead of yelling. Hope I helped
