Dad*

Guys, I need some help/prayers for my 16 year old brother who fights with my dad nearly almost every day. And I'm fucking sick of it, how do I assess this situation properly?

Thia happens with my mom and my little sister. I dont live with them anymore, but i can't stand to visit them for holidays....they were just visiting my house for a week and i couldnt stand it bc it was constant bickering, disrespect and yelling

My advice to you is to just ignore it. I find that whenever i get involved, things just get worse and they expect me to pick a side. Also, im not a violent person but one time i beat the shit out of my sister bc i got involved in their dispute and she started disrespecting me.......

I find its best to stay away from that negativity and let them work it out. It sounds like your bro probably needs to move out in a couple years.

Also, by fighting do you mean bickering/yelling or physical brawls?

Why do they fight? Support is great but if you are looking for relative advise I would speak to someone more aware of the situation.

Oh gosh, when I go to Illinois for thanksgiving etc. my cousin and aunt bicker and yell at each other every single fricking time!!!!
My advice to you…is to just ignore it.
It makes me sad to see them doing that.
Usually, I listen to my music.
If I set it on shuffle, it takes my mind off that yelling and crap b/c I anticipate what song will be next.
I hope that helped!!!!

Tell your brother to quit being a disrespectful twit. Then look at your dad and say "dad he's been warned. if he does it again, take him out behind the woodshed and whoop his ass man style."
Guaranteed your brother stops his bullshit. Especially of dad takes him out back! It worked with my dad. It worked with my son. One day your brother will learn that your dad is the smartest man you two will ever know.....

The big problem is this generation thinks they are owed something and everything should be handed to them there is no such thing as respect anymore , actually it's quite sad if u think about it , respect should be earned not just assumed it will be given , a good asswhipping usually would do it

All 16 year olds fight with their parents. Some worse than others. It's part of being a teenager. They're notoriously stupid. Unless your dad's getting violent, just stay out of it. He'll grow out of it.

I'm sorry for your situation. There is nothong good about the situation you're in. I'm guessing that your brother and father aren't too happy about it either.
Have you tried talking to the two of them about it? You could try telling them how you feel when they fight. Don't place blame or point fingers, the issues themselves are theirs to resolve. But it may help them to become aware of the fact that their fighting affects you as well, and possibly others around them.
As I said, don't mediate between them. Just state how you feel. "When I hear the two of you fighting it makes me feel as though ..." or "It makes me feel X when the two of you argue the way you do..." Wait until they have calmed down and are receptive to what you are saying. Maybe it can help them to see the situation from another point of view?
