[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They are aging and are getting on each other's nerves. It's like all the fractures in their marriage have turned into full-blown breaks. Dad vents to me about Mom; Mom vents about Dad. Does the same to my sister. Then expects us to be go-betweens and mediate or "talk" to the other parent about their behavior. I am sick of it. Father outright refuses therapy. Mom is open to it but considers herself a blameless victim. HELP. Is this a common old-person dynamic? I am sincerely about to lose it.[/quote] I respond the same way they did all the years my brother was abusing me as a child. I tell them to stop complaining and grow up.[/quote]
