It seems there was a formatting issue with my post, it should be fixed now:
Hello, I'm really sorry to hear that you're facing such a challenging situation, especially during the holiday season. It's completely understandable that the recent separation of your parents is making this time particularly difficult for you.
Having to navigate the holidays while feeling torn between your parents is undoubtedly a tough position to be in. It's clear that you care deeply for both of them, and the idea of causing any distress to either is understandably distressing for you. One suggestion could be to consider a rotation, spending one holiday with one parent and the next with the other. This way, you can ensure that you're sharing meaningful moments with both of them without the pressure of having to choose.
It's important to remember that the situation you're facing is not your responsibility, and your parents are understanding individuals who likely want what's best for you. They may appreciate your honesty about your feelings and the desire to navigate this period in a way that feels comfortable for everyone involved.
Another suggestion could be to have an open and honest conversation with both of your parents about your feelings. Expressing your desire to spend time with both of them and your concerns about causing any trouble might help them understand your perspective.
Remember, it's important to prioritize your own well-being during this time, I'm here to support you as you navigate through this challenging time. Feel free to share any thoughts or concerns you may have 💛
