Honestly there's no way that you yourself can stop this, confronting them about it might make them try and hide it more around you to not upset you but this is something they need to solve themselves. If they do still love each other then with time hopefully they will pull through but if there is no signs of them doing so and they refuse to go to any relationship counselling then one option you have is consulting them both separately about their problems ad trying to help them figure out what it is that is really bothering them ad how they can sort it with your other parent. It will be hard to do at first but it'll bring you closer to your parents and after the first couple of times it'll feel natural between you.

No has control over other people's arguments. You can pull each parent aside and share how you feel when they argue in front of you, but that is all. It is their issues, and you as a child.can control, nor is it appropriate to get involved in these arguments.

the best way is talk to them but in a respectful manner. remember that it is important to keep your point but in a polite way. also, tell them how it is affecting you and being your parents, they'll understand at some point.

You can't make them stop arguing, but you can tell them how it makes you feel. Ask them to consider your feelings or the feelings of others around them.

When parents argue it's not your fault. You could try to talk to them, let them know how it makes you feel.

If you get really upset when your parents fight, you might want to talk to them about your feelings. Sometimes, parents don't realize that their arguing makes kids feel upset. If you tell them how you feel, they'll probably try to stop or at least explain to you why they are disagreeing.

Try talking to them about the issue and telling them how you feel when they argue. You could also try talking to another trusted adult who also knows your parents, they may be able the help.

Tell them that the fighting is hurting you. They hopefully can discern which issue is more important; you being hurt or the issue they're fighting about.

I've learned that it is very hard to make your parents stop arguing. Something that has helped me is by saying how much the arguing is impacting me and my siblings and how much it hurts us to see them fight.

If you can find a calm moment when they are not arguing to let them know how arguing makes you feel it can sometimes make them realise how there actions are effecting you. Its not always so easy to do it when they are in a heat of an argument.
