Is it normal that my parents always argue

First off, my dad is very hardworking and busts his ass for me and my family. My dad does everything he can to make us happy and he does. And he is a great person. My mom on the other hand is kinda lazy but loving to me and my family. She's good around us, but around my dad she now is almost always bitching and nagging about something. When my dad gets home from work(usually around ten) he's dead tired cause he works so hard and busts his ass everyday for us. Whenever my dad has something to say to my mom, she just starts nagging and complaining. My dad tries so hard to make us happy, and my mom thinks everything he does is wrong. My dad can't help but get angry and get in an argument. But tonight, my dad got like 20 tickets to a huge NCAA football game rivalry which we go to every year and tailgate (I'm not gonna say which one) and is gonna give the tickets we dont need to his friends families and others but my mon quickly complained about it and then they started yelling at eachother. My dad got so angry that he started yelling and he had had enough so he finally decided that no1 in my family was going to the game because of my moms bitching about it. I'm so pissed right now I can't even see straight. I've been going to that game every year since I was 3. Now we have to watch the game on tv. And no matter how much my dad yells at her or lectures her she had never changed her ways. And my dad can never make her happy. I know this is alot, but I need a vent to release my built up anger.

is it normal that there like this

  • YES IT IS.....as u know know one is perfect..not even ur parents. although the picture seems to be one sided. one must take into consideration both ends of a story. Although ur father does work very hard. so does ur mother to take care of you all when your father is not around. unlike children...adults ,mostly women,once married do not have the freedoms that they once you to. as kids you have your friends and as a father..your dad has his coworkers to talk to. When the only adult communication your mother has comes home at ten o'clock every night...that could lead to loneliness and then eventually rage. Your mother is lonely and demands only time,love, and attention from your father...the man she married

  • Well, my parents fought a lot when I was growing up. It wasn't until many years later that I understood more what was going on. I still don't really know. Just be open to the idea that they are probably both right and both wrong.

    Sucks though I know. Try to learn from their problems and don't repeat their mistakes.

  • I think it's normal for parents to fight, but your mom is completely rediculous. Tell her to knock it off.
