How do you cope with family trouble at home?

Every family is different and so is every family member. Some families have a very healthy atmosphere and all the members reside happily without any complaints.But, there are some families with members who are difficult to get along with and argue like mad. They are constantly criticizing and complaining about something or the other, even down to leaving socks on the floor.

Some families disrupt the harmony of the house every now and then lol.

When ever there was criticism at my old family home, it would most likely 90% of the time come from my dad, and when he really use to be petty or annoying i'd always get my own back by making him jump (hiding behind door) or if he made the same mistake, id make sure and point it out to him straight away that his just done the same. 10 minutes later though we would be all cool as if nothing happened. Since living by my self now me and my dad is like best mate.

How do you lot cope

My family is great but they're just overly religious, I'm not a big believer so my mom and dad would bring up religion in the most awkward moments ever for example while we're on the bus, out eating or with other family members. It is somewhat obnoxious but I've found ways of dealing with it. For the rest, there's nothing else I can say other than that they've raised me well and that I have great siblings who I have good relations with. Ofc there would be some drama like a family member dying and stuff but that's pretty normal with many families.

That sounds like it could be very awkward for you, but also sounds like your family gets a long great, i only asked this question from programmes ive watched and friends families near enough end up in punch ups nearly or do lol

I'd wrote the same thing if you didn't do it first lol

Dang I live with my Aunt and she gets pretty triggered when I get like a spec of rice on the floor and starts yelling at me because of it. She doesn't even want to talk about and just says that I need to learn how to eat clean up after myself even though I was my own dishes???

If there's drama happening I just seperate myself from them and excercise or listen to music, which is mostly what I do in most cases when I want to improve my mood. Luckily, my family is great so we never really fight. There are some issues which can cause some small fights but nothing that leaves a permanent mark.
