Sorry to hear this bro... My parents aren't thank god. Did they buy your stuff or did you buy the chit? If you bought the stuff then I'd tell them to leave you out of it. Hope everything turns out alright bro.:(

My parents kinda were. They seprated for a while, about 8 years then got back together. It really screwed me up and still haunts me.

mine were, twice. once when i was 6 and then again when i was 14. remember, their issues arent yours. live your life and let them do what they gotta do.

quads can be replaced etc, just keep your chin up and look forward

My Mom is on her 3rd marriage, I was 4 & 9 when the divorces took place. Just take it a day at a time. My mom always said to me when times were tough "The Lord never gives you more than you can handle" so remember that about yourself and be strong. You may also have to put them in their place when they start bashing each other to you, its not your issue, its theirs.

Take care and keep your head up

It will get better. My parents divorced when I was 12. It was a mess. But I relized it was better off for the both of them. Sometimes the fighting and insanity isn't worth it.

I feel for all of you whose parents have gotten a divorce.

Its not easy on the kids and its not easy at all on the parents ( the ones that care) to divorce when children are involved, especially older kids, say 8 to 18.

It'll be better when you can drive. stick it out; life goes on. like pappy said, their problems aren't yours.

make sure that you tell it like it is, but still give them the respect they deserve.

my parents got a divorce 4 years ago. I was eleven and stupid and took sides. They still live together. it's odd. my mother has a boyfriend. my father doesn't know. They constantly fight. I pity them both, but i stay out of their bussiness.

I'm not worried about anything, and nor should you be. i'm happy and content with what i have currently, and what i have to look forward to. Keep your head high, and everything will work out in the end.

thanks for letting me talk and good luck with your situation. stay strong.

Just remember, everything will work out in the end.. The grass is always green on both sides.

I had it pretty ruff. I kept hoping my parents would get back together... And they decided to go out and talk about things...

Next thing I know, my mom came crawling in the house, with 4 missing teath, bleeding everywhere. My dad crying his eyes out.

I went outside, and seen the car was crashed up with a head imprint on the passenger side.

He hit the telephone pole at the bottom of my driveway. Neighbors told me he was doing well over 65mph.

Long story short... He got mad on the ride home, and tried to take his life along with hers. She wasn't wearing a seatbelt because a minute earlier, he dropped her off in the middle of a flat road at night.

The doctors said it was amazing she lived. She is also def in one ear due to the crash.

I learned alot from all of it. I grew up pretty early. Its a shame when a 12 yr old has to hide alchohol and medication in the house, when hes scared his father is going to take his life.

One of the worse memories of my life.


Basically, things always get better, no matter how down in the dirt they get. I've had a pretty nutty life. Im not happy with my past, and I still relive alot of horrible moments.... But things get better. I work 7 days a week to get my mind away from everything.

Riding is a great getaway from life. I used it for years, until I got hit by a car. Then I used drugs, and that just put me in jail and now on probation for 5 years with a lost of liscences.


Good luck... Everything will be alright.

If you look at the statistics,marriages just don't seem to last anymore for whatever reason.I personally think that things like money issues put a HUGE strain on the relationship.I have never heard of the divorce happening because of something the child had done,they just have to take the hardest hit unfortunately.Just keep your head up bro. Its great that you can keep the quad and When things seem like their boiling, get on and ride your heart out!!

My parents have been divorced for almost 2 years now i was 14 15 when it happened and heres some advice i learned the hard way. Don't ever put the divorce on yourself its not your fault. Its the problems that your parents have with each other. It took me awhile to get used to but i must say it is much better not having to worry about coming home and listening to my mom and dad argue. I made the mistake to put the divorce on me like i was the 1 who caused it and it really affected my life. School friends etc... Just remember they both still love you and that will never change. Look at the bright side double the presents on holidays :). And for the whole quad thing my parents always use to say that but that was just because they were mad at the time so just give it some time.

my parents got divorced when I was nine and I had to take a lot of crap in the folowing couple years. they got divorced because my dad was a screw up and took advantage of my mom and everything, and it got to the point where my mom could't take it anymore and just divorced him. In the days after the divorce my dad lost his car,job,home and every time somebody would ask how my dad was I would tell them he was fine and was living in blah,blah,blah town when he really wasn't and it was hard to not be able to tell the truth and thats what hurt me the most throughout the whole thing. It got to a point where I couldn't even see him anymore without thinking of what a huge imbarrasement he was.

now 15 its been better and not as hard for me and I still do see my dad, and he has gotten better. He now has a job,car, and an appartment where I see him whenever I want. It still feels kinda weird to talk to him though sometimes.

I hope everything turns out for you DVXracer but you are not alone in this world and surround yourself with friends who actually care about you and will help you. I know thats what helped me when I was going through that.

thats a laugh.. The only people that can say life is a peice of cake, is someone who has money for everything, someone who is already successful, or someone that still lives with their parents and they pay for everything they do.

Try living in the real world. Life may not be considered (hard) to some, but it sure as hell isn't easy.

my parents where apart and back a million times growing up, my grandpa had several rental houses and we (my mom,sister and brother) would move into one for a few months each year.
my mom would always take him back no mater how much he beat on her.
I would have given up everything not to have all the fighting.


good luck

So everythings been all good since i made this tread untill about 7 when my mom comes in my room and tells me my dads packing, i said where ? and shes like hes going to leave and go stay with his mom, i siad nothing. Later on i was watching motocross and he comes up to me and tells me sorry and that he will be back every saturday to take me riding, i didnt say anything or even look at him. This really sucks cause he has responsibilities and if he just gets up and goes idk if i even want anything to do with him... :ermm: :( I dont even know what im going to do.

Which 450?
08-07-2007, 07:49 PM

I think you should reread this thread from the beginning, there were some good statements made.

It seemed to help you the first time, maybe it'll help again;)

Wrong attitude again man. My parents divorced when I was 14. Dont be mad at either one of them unless you have all of the story. When a divorce happens nowadays and kids are involved its the dad that normally has to move out. Sometimes they just move out to keep from making things worse. But either way dont hate or be mad at them for no reason. If they are splitting because of abuse or bad bad stuff some hate might be involved but if its just they cant get along anymore just be there for both of them, I'm sure they will try and do the same for you.

No you haven't, you just think you are. Dont take this the wrong way cause it happens alot, maybe you are just worried how its gonna affect you and you only. Every move they make from now on involving this mess they will be considering you, so you do the same for them.

Would you rather be around two very unhappy people together or one happy person at a time? Sure it's going to feel 'wierd' since it's new to you but in the long run it will probably be better for everyone.
