My friend's parents are getting a divorce and it's been especially hard on him. His little brother doesn't know much so he doesn't care as much. His parents use him as the middle man and he juggles this family dilema with school. It's not fair for him.. His mom had surgery to remove her appendix 3 weeks ago. The wound still hasn't healed because she works and she is stressed from trying to be that great wife so her husband won't leave her. He feels helpless and he wants to become stronger and bolder to be able to say some stuff to his dad but that's not in his gentle nature. He thinks maybe his dad is having some midlife crisis. I prefer how he is but I understand that if he doesn't find that courage to try to stand up and talk to his dad about the divorce, he'll regret it.

him: my mom told me a touching tidbit
him: when i was giving birth to you and being operated on, he was there right next to me
ves rmx: aww
him: when i was giving birth to ur bro and being operated on, he was there right next to me
him: when i was getting operated on this time, he wasn't there
him: he didn't even call
ves rmx: omg ur poor mom
him: exactly why
him i want to smack my dad and punch him


Could you blame him?

that's sad...
divorce is a very sad time in a person's life, when they see their parents - who are their role models for love...split up. I think even though he is the child, he probably he can't speak his mind to the elders...but he has as much say in the break up, cuz it is a family matter!
