Is it normal to fight with your perents all the time?

I fight with my parents allot, and it doesn't seem like anyone else is having any family trouble! my family has always been, not very connected, though I thought after time things would get better? There is always shouting and all ways blaming. More 50 times have I thought, "I hate you" at my parents. Though the anger always turns into sadness before it can be used. Is anyone else going though the same thing1?

Is It Normal?

  • Growing up I remembered my parents arguing all the time, the older I got the more I understood why. I don't remember hating them, but I do remember thinking they could make arguing an olympic sport. when I was little I would hide in my room, when I was older I would go for a long walk, by the time I got back things had calmed down and they would pretend it hadn't happened and it was never talked about. I remembered hating that they argued and how helpless it made me feel. You are not the only one it happened to.

    • i agree with u redbird.. that's the one only problm in my life.. bcause i dnt consider other problems too be so problematic. no issue is bigger than growing up in a family where your parents hate and fight each other.and that is why i hate them too.they r never in a good mood and so i only interact with them when in need.
      i know m nt d only one, but i knw there r great families around me where parents dnt want to kill each other..

      • If your parents are anything like mine, expect them to get divorced, mine did, they were kinda shocked when I didn't act at all surprised and stunned by something I had been prepared for since high school.

  • It is most definitely normal for youths to feel angry at their parents.

  • I fight with my mom every single day and I also feel like she favors my older brother over me.

  • I grew up in quite a dysfunctional family myself and didn't always find the support and understanding I would've wished for. I recently heard an estimate from a psychologist that 85% of families are dysfunctional to some extent. In a weird way I found that kind of comforting.
    I don't know what to suggest, but maybe when things are calm you could talk to members of your family one-to-one without blaming anyone, just trying to understand their issues better and to find out how the situation could be improved. Good luck :)
