the most ignorant thing someone could say

[pink_adore_maya]

Istg those people piss me off so much.

[ChloexMalibu]

Exactly. They don’t understand the struggles, anxiety, and stress we go through. Sometimes it’s so bad I forget one their birthdays. Then you miss one parent but you can’t go to their house because you’re at the others and don’t want to make them upset.

[Its.Claire.]

People honestly piss me off and are so naïve. They don’t get how stressful it is to have divorced parents, and always having to go back-and-forth back-and-forth back-and-forth constantly. It’s so stressful and gives me major anxiety and feels like I can’t even stay in one place for long enough. It really is a struggle.

as someone with parents that are married, thats absolutely disgusting. most of my friends have divorced parents and im constantly listening to them vent about how horrible it is (NOT IN A BAD WAY, I NEVER MIND THEM COMING TO ME). its not all about the gifts and such. money is tight, packing and moving houses constantly, it seems horrible. im so greatful to have married parents. my heart goes out to anyone with divorced❤

edit: feel free to vent in the replies, ill respond to every one :)

[analiee]

started praying on ppls downfall when they said this to me

[xiiruby]

like im sure you’d love the packing for there houses every week, having to alternate between them, picking sides, and getting up early to leave.

They don’t understand what they go through when parents get divorced, it’s not fun to have two Christmas’s it’s actually kind of depressing cause you just wish you could have a Christmas all together as a happy family 😢😢

[EvelynAdi]

Omg I feel u my parents have been divorced for over two years and I have never seen me with that much stress it is so hard feeling happy and people who is struggling to pick like I am just know that ur going to get through this and you’re not alone pls stop do this people

[Userkjq]

This is so true!! Some times my friends are like “your so lucky because you get twice as many things” it really annoys me yk?!

[Ooogabogy]

They do NOT understand how stressful it is for me to have divorced parents. I switch houses every week, which means a different schedule. A different set of parents. I’ve done it for years but it still sucks

[vlogsby.mia.]

it does not feel good having divorced parents. I wish I could just have one more time with my parents together and in one house. just one time.

[tayyy]

i wanna see how many ppl have divorced parents

👇🏽

[PiggyBooty-bm]

That’s messed up I’m very grateful my parents are together

[jaidbry]

Best thing I can say to those of yall who’s parents are recently separated or separating: it will get better! Yes it is hard at first, and it feels incredibly unfair, but over time you’ll see that this was the best thing for everyone. My parents are much happier apart and with new partners, and being separated has allowed them to grow and become better parents to me, too. All I’m saying is, this is just as hard for your parents as it is for you, so try to be graceful and know that it will get better.

I have divorced parents and it’s really hard. It’s not fun being questioned and asked who your favorite parent is. It is really hard to go back and forth. You might get nervous to go to one house and be exited to come home to the other. Always getting interrogated about text messages, parents going through messages a lot with the other parent. Fights a lot. One house doesn’t feel like home. It’s not fun having 2 birthdays because usually you are at one house more than the other (especially if your parents live in separate states like mine) and so you don’t have any friends to come over for ur birthday (at one house). You always have to hang out with siblings friends. DRAMA. Feeling unwelcome and uncomfortable. Hiding things (relationships and secrets). Abusive (sometimes and not all family’s). Sometimes your friends will make plan in front of you bc they know you won’t be there and they just want to make you mad.

I made this message because I want people to understand that it’s not easy. I know there are a million other reasons and things I could write but I don’t feel like wasting my time to prove to people that it’s not fun.

Real, my friends are always saying things like "Ah, you're so lucky to have split parents, you get two everythings!!" But really its not just that, there's so much trauma, ppl saying "which parents do you like better?" Or hearing the other parent talk crap about the other or the stress that comes with switching houses every weekend. Or when you just don't wanna stay with a parent but don't wanna switch because you don't want to hurt their feelings, and not to mention not being able to make plans with friends/having difficulty with it since you're switchinhy constantly.

[Courtneyslaysever]

They don't understand what we had to go through to get the two Christmases though.. and that's what hits the hardest

[Addison-pmzv]

Nah those people are crazy. I’m sorry that you had to go through that

[OfficiallyAnnabelle]

I don’t have divorced parents but a lot of my friends do and I always support them and the people who say that need to grow up
