My parents have had another one of their huge arguments, which I think is cause mainly around one person’s work, and their problems there.

We all discussed it, and understood what that person was saying on one of our walks that we had to take. When we came back, the tv was playing up, and that same person got angry and took it out on the other person. I did try to reason with them, but am slowly losing my voice because of the shouting I had to go through. I would just like to know, is there anyway (suggestions), that I can do anything to stop my parents from having arguments, that mount up?

Well, yelling isn’t going to help. They need to solve their marital problems, and maybe family therapy would be good. Any kind of therapy could help, really. Try to avoid getting caught up in the fights, one more person screaming just fuels the fire.

I agree with soyinfinita. Also, it may help to try to stop the arguments before they get too heated. If someone can tell that a fight is breaking out, try to get everyone to take a break and think about why they are angry, and what they are angry about. Focus on the solutions to problems, not the problems themselves. And casting blame on the other person only makes it worse, so try to avoid doing that.
