The Pang family…sigh

My parents sometimes make me sad. They are going to move to San Gabriel to be closer to their church, but they are very bad at communicating with each other and have been arguing. My mom gets angry and my dad is bad at communicating and then my mom doesn’t talk to him. They sound verbally abusive toward each other. I mean…of course if one attacks the other person, you’d naturally feel defensive…but they constantly do that to each other…how do you think they are going to solve any problems by putting the other person down?  It feels like they are ALWAYS arguing actually, not just about the move. I feel like if they didn’t call themselves Christian, they are no different from marriages that are toxic and falling apart. I don’t know why they can’t just try to be nice to each other. They are both sinful people and they don’t want to compromise. Sometimes, their marriage is a map for how I DON’T want my marriage to turn out. Maybe it’s just cuz they are in an argument that I’m saying this…they have good times too…but sometimes, I think their arguing is just a way of life for them. My mom probably takes comfort in friends and church more than her own husband. My dad has no one except her and has bad health…they frustrate me and I don’t really know how to help them.
