I'm worried for my family.

My parents pretty much have hit the breaking point. My mom is screaming at and hitting my dad and threatening to cut him with a knife. My dad is just being silent. My entire house is about to fall apart internally. Fuck. All I can do here is watch and wait....

    Well, while the ultimate end result of this is probably not going to be at all pretty, is there anything you could do to stop the immediate fighting, or has this happened before and your mom simply didn't listen?

    Either way, that's awful.
  • It's not immediate fighting. Just very tense arguing that could possibly escalate.

    It's already cooled down, but who knows when it will strike again.
  • Have you been introduced to the Cycle of Abuse? You should get help while you can. The situation is not going to resolve itself.
  • My mom has said she's "had enough of it" (dealing with my dad).

    She says she's just gonna up and leave us for Virginia or California. Soon. Like, on the first.
  • Aw man, that's really shit Chagen :(

    Can you convince them to see a marriage counselor or at least talk to the priest about it(I remember them being church-going christians)? If they're arguing over nothing instead of substantive things, they need to learn some anger management.
  • I think it's far too gone at this point.

    I just hope that my mom doesn't go through with it.
  • Never hurts to try if the option hasn't been considered before. When you're near the boiling point, it's probably easier to convince them of the necessity of going.
  • They wouldn't listen to me anyway.
  • They're somethin' else.
    Now you're just acting defeated.
