I'm 14 and my parents have been divorced for almost 6 years.I still don't kow why exactly they broke up- even when I ask them now they say I'm too young to understand! It hasn't been easy, but when I was younger, it seemed so much easier! Sometimes I just want to stay at my moms house, other times I just want to see my dad!! But I have no choice in the matter until I'm 16 or something. I've tried talking to friends and they comfort me, but have no idea what to say to help me! I have a brother, who's 12, but talking to him is helpless. I just wish my parents lived together! I feel so lonely sometimes. Can anybody give me some advice on how to cope with all this? ↓

hello summer , i am a mother of 2 kids 8y/o & 2 y/o my 8 y/o feel's the same way you do she is alway's asking when her dad and i are getting back together ..& as a monther it kill's me inside to hear her ask that ? when i have no idea what to say . so i know where your mom is coming form. but i think 14 is a good age to talk to you about this your mom and dad think it's best for you not to know but explain to them how you feel . sit them both down when you have them together and tell them how hard it is for you to go back and forth maybe they can work some thing out .so do you play sport's if not try playing some and maybe having them both there seeing you play will feel a lil bit of the void you have . ↑
