writes:@ weeks ago my parents got unofficially divorced, and it's been hard on everyone, considering the cause of it was my father cheating on my mother. It's hard to watch my mother go through this pain. My father feels terrible for what he has done. My little brother on the other hand seemed to be doing okay, and we had come to the conclusion that if there was no yelling and fighting then he was okay. Recently we found out he wasn't doing as well as we thought. I talked to him about it and he said that he just wanted us to be one big happy family. I told him to come and talk to me whenever he feels upset, I told him that he could talk to me about anything. I was told by my mother to have more patience with him. Today he came barging into my room really mad. I didn't know what to do or know how to keep my patience when he's telling me that I don't do anything. Is this his way of expressing sadness? How can I keep my patience when he is yelling and screaming at me? Please help, this is new to all of us. We don't know what to do.
