Why do parents divorce each other and expect the child to choose between one or the other? I have wondered this for a few years now. My parents are always trying to turn me against the other and I dont know why. One will belittle the other and expect me to agree with them... and when I ask them to stop they automatically assume that im standing up for the other because I love them more. Thats wrong, and I dont understand why they always expect me to choose one over the other when I love them both the same. They both are my parent and they both will always have a place in my heart because if it werent for them then I would not be living today. If it werent for them BOTH I would never have been concived. I just wish they understood that I cant choose one over the other. Any ideas on how I can get them to understand this? If you have answers to this please leave them in a comment. THANKS!
