Regardless of incident, the question is “who’s in the wrong?” If it was you, you can cool mom or dad down by doing what they expect. If they’re becomming heated for no reason, then back away and let them cool. They have issues and need the space.

hmmm well.

my dad and i were having an argument. he was beyond angry.

i left in the middle of the fight and went to my room quietly. i don’t answer his knocking and banging. after a few hours, i went downstairs again. i’m pretty calm already, he’s calm as well. we were able to communicate better.

just don’t lose your head and say things to intensify the situation. also it helps to consider the opposite perspective - most of the time people don’t get mad for no reason. explain how and why you feel like you do, but make sure that you’re not making it out to be like THEY MADE YOU FEEL LIKE THAT. just say you want to explain, and want them to explain in return for better understanding all round. thats how I approach eeeverything and it works pretty well for me.
