  • My friends parents are divorced and when I talk to her she always seems just so happy as if nothing in her life was very dramatic and hard. She may sometimes get in a fight with my other friend but the reason she would get into those fights was because it was her parents fault. When they kept on fighting it influenced her to be tough and to be very aggressive but it is a good thing that they divorced she now has a total of six half brothers and sisters and of course a best friend.

  • My parents divorced when I was 3 months old.:( They fought because my dad would constantly hang out with his friends. I also have a sister who is my half sister. My mom met a guy when I was 3 and she married him when I was 4 and now I have a Half Brother. :) Now I visit my dad lives in a home and is married. (I now have three step siblings.) So it doesn't really bug me. Thanks Brett for sharing your story too <3

  • I'm 16 and my parents are in a divorce right now.They basically fought almost all my life and they can't get along at all.It's hard that they are getting divorced and I will miss my dad, but I am happy that they are getting divorced. I actually wish they had sooner because it's hard to live with all the fighting,but it did make me a stronger person. I believe that I can still have a happy life when I grow up and that someone will make me happy and love me.Thank you Brett for being who you are <3

  • my parents got divorced when i was 10 and i was so happy.

  • It is a bad thing to get divorced -__-. Don't kid yourself. You did fail if you divorce!

  • my parents got divorced when i was 6 yrs old and my sister was 9.

  • i just realized how many peoples parents got divorced looking at these comments :o

  • my parents got divorced 9 months ago. at first i was really upset but after watching this video you make me see a whole things in a completly new way. thank you brett. i would love for you too see this just so you know how much i appricate this video.

  • @littlemisshyper1787 Read, understood & appreciated :-)

  • my parents aren't divorced but i have 4 half sisters and a half brother all from my parents previous marriages, it's quite a complicated family but i know that our family is extremely close i'd never class any of my sisters or brother as half at all! unfortunately none of my sisters have closer relationships with their fathers, but my dad is the best and all my sisters and my brother consider my dad as their full dad and we're all so content and happy and i'm glad you are too! :)

  • my parents divorced when I was 2, I'm 13 now and luckily my parents are still good friends, me and my brothers mostly live with my mum but on Wednesdays and Saturdays we stay at my dads, i love both mu mum and dad dearly and i can imagine life would probably be worse off for me and my 2 brothers if they hadnt separated cause my dad just couldnt cope as he is bi-polar.

  • I have been through 3 divorcals, and swap through 3 different houses almost every week... I have to move all around the state, almost every 7 days.. my parents constantly nag at me for playing video games/ doing nothing at home and not playing with my friends.. It is hard when my friends live in all different places and I can hang out with them for a few days then say "see ya in 3 weeks".. my "parents" are constantly nagging me about this.. What should I say to them?

  • My parents just separated.....after this video was posted acute

  • Hey, Brett. My parents are not (yet) divorced, but my mom ran away to the east coast, leaving me and my dad and my sisters in CA. I recently moved in with my mom, and she's dating. He's a nice man, but being 19 and seeing my mom get cozy next to another (or any) man after seeing her unhappily married my whole life is just weird. She seems uneasy that it makes me uncomfortable. It's not her, or him, or anyone. It's just weird and new. Did you find it weird when your parents started dating?

  • My parents don't like each other no more and my dad want to go back to Mexico and I don't want that I understand that there's no leve between them I understand but I'm not gonna see my dad anymore if he goes back to Mexico I'm really sad right now and I'm 15 and I have a brother he is 8 that's the bad thing this is gonna hurt him soo bad:,(

  • my parents got divorced when i was 6. im 14 now. sometimes its difficult with a stepmom yelling at you for forgetting something at your moms house or accidentally bringing clothes back and forth. it can make it pretty stressful but at least my parents are now speaking to eachother. anyways im used to it now, and having parents being divorced is deffinitley not the worst thing in the world..

  • i think my world might change cause i think my parents are divorcing

  • my did to i'm sorry god bless you

  • i'm did to i; m sorry

  • My parents got divorced about 5 years ago and theyre still pretty hostile twoards one another. This made me feel bedr though:) i teared up a bit. Its not easy but like u said it gets bedr.

  • my parents got divorced a few years ago. and i would say it made my life 100 times better

  • Your Jewish?

  • Im glad my parents got divorced, my dad is a dick, hes a bad person, and i got a really awsome step dad a few years later who has been an amazing father!!!

  • I agree :) I don't think marriage should be taken lightly as it seems a lot of people take it these days.

  • My parents decided to get married when my mom found out she was pregant. I came a few months after the wedding and they were married for almost 10 years. They fought alot and my father was abusive and controlling, but she stayed for me. Im now 18 and I live with my mom and sister. My dad is now a huge ass. I wish my mom had left sooner. But, if she did, my mom would have never met and fell in love with a man, who unfourtnatly passed away 3 years ago, but my 4 year old sister came from that deal.

  • yeah my parents got divorced but my dad left dont know him never have not always the best desicion glad you have parents who actually care for you though!!! (:

  • My parents divorced when I was 2. I don't remember having a mom and dad in the same household. I am kinda glad that I didn't live with my dad because he has some very skewed views. I didn't want to inherit his racism or homophobia either.

  • Aww, you are so sweet. I wish you the best:))

  • these sbbppexppperiences

  • My friend had/ is having a bad childhood because her mom and dad won't get divorced. Her dad is a cheating dick, and she's seen proof, showed the proof to her mom, even. Her mom doesn't let her do anything because she's afraid she'll make her dad mad. Her dad is nice to me but he's the worlds biggest dick to her.

    My parents are still married, going on 19 or 20 years ^_^ There have been rough times but they've always worked through them. <3

  • I agree, divorce is not a bad thing. I probably would have had a way better childhood if my mom and dad did. I had a warped fucked up childhood. My dad was a major piece of shit. My mom should have left him before they even made me probably, but im here. been through shit, but Im a stronger person for what i've been through and I take my experiences that I have had in my childhood as a learning experience of not WHAT TO DO when you are a mom. Today, Im married with a 7 year old and i am so happy

  • Well said dude. I really like your videos.

  • "i was noy brought into this world because of a failed anything" sorry failed condom maybe? Loljkilubrett

  • My parents got divorced when I was about 1.

    My mum and my stepdad got divorced when I was 13.

    If it weren't for those events, I'd still be a pathetic, wimpy, Asian kid.

  • my parents got devorced when i was 2

  • @StarFoxMadness Mine too.

  • I completely agree, divorce isn't terrible. My childhood would have been terrible if they stayed together! It can be a positive thing. Especially if you're little, more presents on birthdays!

  • @luckyme0131 ahahaha I wish my parents got a divorce!

  • Thank you for being an inspiration and a strong person. You truly can bring up those that are down :) You rock Brett!

  • My parents divored when I was 4-5 and it was hard at times but it was all for the best. And my dad got remarried and my mom dated, everyone was happy

  • that seems just like my parents man. they got divorced a few months before i was born and now 18 years later my mom literally lives 6 streets away from me and my parents are good friends.

  • you ARE awsome!

  • it felt different, but it felt good...

  • My parents divorced was finally done a few months ago...It took like 2 years for it to all happen, and I handled this thing and still do completely different then you. You think a lot more positive then me haha

  • My parents got divorced ON my tenth birthday. They both missed my party to sign the papers.

  • When I 4-8 my mom separated from my dad because he had issues with pot. When he 'went to counseling', my mom returned to him, to find he really hadn't quit smoking. My mom has been going through the long divorce process for almost three years now, and it should be finished soon. My parents constantly fight and my dad isn't in the right place to support himself or either of us. This divorce is a positive thing, and knowing someone as great as you went through the same thing makes it easier. (:

  • My parents separated when I was 2 and when I was three me and my three brothers and my mom moved in with someone who recently became my moms wife. So I never really had a father and it always makes me angry when my friends complain about having to spend time with their fathers.

  • Your birthday is in 2 days? Mines in 3! haha :P

  • its okiee brett my parents r qoinqq throuqh a divorcee riqht noW. and tbh my parents r kinda in the same situatioN. unfortunatelyy its common but its part of reality anywaY... <3

  • My parents aren`t divorced but my mom was married before my dad and because of that I have an awesome half brother!!

  • We Love You Brett <3

  • Brett, im 13. and my mom wants to devorice my dad. we havnt lived with him and i'm happy. he steals money from us and everything. it really sucks. i just wanted tot let you know. that there is a reason for evrything. love you <3

  • Your perspective on life is so positive and uplifting Brett! My parents are divorced and I only ever saw the bad sides, but I guess your right, it's for the best and if they're unhappy then it's ok!

    Please thumb up so Brett can see this :D

    Love ya Brett!

  • I love you, Brett.

  • My parents got a divorce when I was like two and they didn't try to even hide the fact that they were fighting. They always fought in front of me and they did all the time until I turned about 13. Ill be 20 this year. My mom is now re married. She is miserable and my dad is single. They always still try to bring me into their misery, but I have always kept my head up. they have taught me how not to be when I get older. Thank you for being you, Brett. you are one person I defiantly look up to.

  • well my divorce was the best thing to happen to me and my four children. the sad part is he walked away 3 years ago and didn't want to be a father anymore. there for my children are suffering a loss.

  • condom fail!

    

  • twice divorced and it's just fine. I am happy now with my current hubby.

  • Jew

  • @PartianHD Happy Birthday! I'll be 23 on the 5th too....it's an awesome birthday.

  • What happens when your parents are separated but still obviously in love and neither of them have moved on even a little bit after over a year? It's a strange situation as absolutely NOTHING has changed in our family dynamic except my dad does not sleep here anymore. Even as a 19 year old I find this awfully confusing because I don't know what the hell I'm supposed to think about the situation..

  • Love you Brett. :)

  • Brett... I am not on board with the hand-mouth thing!

  • hand mouth is just not the same :( #LOL

  • My parents divorced when I was a around 14, and when I look back it was a good a thing. They were fighting all the time and both of them were miserable. I was okay with them being separated, but not being the go-to person to bitch about the other parent. My Dad was really good about it, my Mom not so much. I don't think she meant to but she did alienate me from my Dad for a few years. I'm only now rebuilding that relationship, which sucks since we used to be close and its hard to make lost time.

  • It seems a bit opportunistic that Youtube placed a big advert for Online Divorces next to the video...

  • you're so awesome ! you seem to love us by giving us advice and therfore we love you even more !!! <3

  • I grew up having my mother, grandma, and aunt. I hear ya bud :)

  • i didnt like the hand mouth. it felt wrong. :'(

  • I'm the result of a crazy work party. So basically, a mistake. :/

  • stop filming and driving at the same time it Dangerous

  • it's easier when yer older. I hope they are on reasonably good terms with each other. Just remember, its them who have the problem, NOT you!

  • My dad left when I was 3, I never saw him again after that, So I don't really remember him. I admit, I was really bitter at first, but I've come to terms with it. Thanks Brett, for making this :) I consider you my friend even though we don't live by each other <3 lol you're awesome and I love your vlogs

  • When i was a kid my a dad run out if home and i felt like shit, even tho days later he came back. Now my parents barely speak to each other its not a bad thing, but definitely, they (and I of course) could been more happier if they have choose separeted ways, anyways the point is maybe in that time i couldnt see or understand that divorce its something good, just like you say, its not the end of the world!

  • My parents hate each other but are still married after 19 years and together they had and raised me, my older brother and my little sister as well as my half brother whom my mum had before she even met my dad.. I truly think that the fact they got this far is great

  • I lost my dad when i was a kid and now my mother is divorcing the only father I have ever known.I know they arent really happy together but it feels like the end of the world.I hope I get your perspective on this soon.

  • Brett,

    I need you in my life.

    Bri

  • I am 35.. and my parents just seperated.. They were married for 40 years.. it's not that easy... but at least they went their own way in peace.. My dad moves to Bali and my mum keeps the house

  • Hey brett, my parents divorced when I was 7 and I have 2 older siblings as well but their divorce ruined our lives and family. I got depression and gained weight because I didn't understand it, my brother dropped out of school, my mom started drugs, my dad got DIU's from not being with us. it was all really bad and we lived in naperville, IL so it was a suburb life. even till today my dad is not allowed on my moms property and my mom has a mentally abusive bf which has driven me 2 insanity :/

  • ⱣφCφDφŢ

  • Wait wait wait wait... you didn't put us in your mouth, but into your hand mouth. That means you weren't holding your steering wheel with anything.

  • i'm 17 and my parents got divorced when i was 7. but i never knew what was happening at the time because like you, they hid fighting very well. but the thing that made me sad was i asked them before if they were getting divorced because my friends parents were divorced. then about a year later they did. now my mom has a boyfriend living with us and my dad is remarried to a real bitch and i hate it. D:

  • it's odd that there's a "Break Up Ornament" right next to this video.

  • Why are you always so worried when you see a cop/think you see a cop...whats in your car Brett?

  • haha i thought i was the only who was happy my parents got divorced! lol

  • Lol Tuesday is my dad's B-day(:

  • @BrettTheiPhone Brett you're so nice to all your fans!(: We love you, and I'm sorry your parents divorced. Happy day early Birthday!(: (lol)

  • Happy Birthday Brett!!!

    My folks divorced when I was 17, but it was long overdue...

    They fought for many years and hated each other. Though I feel it was a good thing, they should have done it many many years ago, but they said they stayed together for the children. The only thing I remember from that time in my life was the hateful remarks, infidelity, and lots of physical confrontations.

  • my parents got divorced when I was three. I feel your pain. ._.

  • what about those kids that had to go through there parents being divorced and then one of the parents just left and the kid never heard from them again..is that still a win?

  • Happy almost birthday!! :) and i love that you posted this. As of now my parents are happily married, but when I was younger, they were separated for along time and I didnt know why at the time. but i think that the time that they spent apart, just doing theyre own things, helped them. :]

  • it's my birthday in a few days...

  • Thanks so much for this my parents got divorced when I was 4 and at the time I didn't understand but now tht I do I kno tht they r better off separate because they weren't happy together

  • Divorce is definitely not a bad thing.. In fact sometimes it's the best thing for everyone.. for the parents and the children :) I hate it when parents selfishly hand on and let their children see their ugly sides.. And in my experience unhappy/fighting parents often led to drinking and it was and still is just a fucking mess..

    .. Yeah so Divorce for the win and let's hope some people see reason and go through with it .. Sigh:/

  • i wish i at least liked my step dad -.-

  • thnx, great video. I almost agree totally :)

  • steve and chris from the show Steven and Chris?@ LOL. XD.

  • My grandparents have been happily married for 65 years.

    My parents have been happily married for 43 years.

    My sister and her husband have been happily married for almost 20 years.

    I'm 37. I got married at 20, divorced at 22. But got 2 great kids out of the bargain.

    I couldn't be happier.

  • Sorry to hear man x

  • I am here due to failure. A failed comdom! LOL!

  • Same story as Mine.Im 14.

    3 kids , jewish family, when i was 9 they got divorced..

    U need too look on the bright side here :)

    you'll have at least 2 Houses. :)

  • I really like your take on divorce. It definitely meant a lot to Stevo and I when you talked to us. Glad you made this video, I feel like it will help a lot of people out :)

  • <3 this Brett! nice to see a more serious but Brett side of view lol :) My parents also got divorced when i was 6 and im 21 and also got divorced lol vicious cycle life has but i think we grow to be different people and when we are those different people we dont like the other one as much haha anyways Happy Birthday!!! :D

  • Really refreshing to see your nongoofy side! You should totally do more of these, it was really great to here a different point of view on a serious subjects that affects a lot of youth! Your the man Brett!! Love Ya!

  • awesome video , you made some great points

  • getting punched in the nose or my stomach makes me wanna KILL someone

  • I totally agree. My parents are fighting silently for about 10 years now and they are still together. I can't help but be angry at my mother for letting me know everything from the beginning ( I was back than 10 y/o) way to much to handle for a little girl. I asked a few times why they don't just get divorced. I think my mother doesn't want to because she hasn't work and my dad because of my brother and me and the food on the table when he comes home. it's not a warzone but it isn't always nice.

  • Happy..birthday ?! Yaaaaaay ! And what do you think if Rebecca Black and Justin Bieber sing a song together ?!

  • 25? Wigga you least thirty.

  • However as time went on the wounds healed, and bridges were rebuilt. Now they function pretty well together and no one can say they don't care about each other still. If any kids here are going through this don't make it affect you too much. As time goes on they can and more than likely will stop fighting. Just be there for them.

  • Hey Brett great video. I agree whole heartedly a lot of times the best of option is to just end it. If a person can not make a relationship work by any means then why make yourself suffer. When my parents got divorced a few years ago it was pretty bad. My dad claims he never saw it coming and he was hurt, there was a lot of fighting and being a kid stuck in that felt terrible.

  • My parents when i was 6

  • My parents got divored when I was like.....6 months?or 7........ Thank You Brett,Thank You for making me feel less alone :D

  • My parents separated when I was 8 or 9. My Dad actually moved into the basement and lived with us for a while and then we moved to another city without him and then we moved back and he was always in our lives so I never went through any issues with their separation. I knew my Dad loved me and would always be there for me. Unfortunately my mom got into an abusive relationship and she's gone now. And then I lost my Dad to cancer. They were amazing parents. I couldn't have asked for better.

  • oooops i meant wouldnt my bad XD

  • My parents divoced when I was 2 so I grew up with it. I never really was sad or angry at them because I knew they were both happy apart. Now they are both remarried and even though I cant stand my step dad I love my step mom and all my other siblings that I now have. Me and my step sibling don't even consider ourselves step we love each other just as much as full blooded siblings. My parents are friends and now we have like one huge family and I love it. I would have my life any other way.

  • My parents got divorced early last year, my dad is still depressed over it and its annoying and yeah. so yeah, glad to see someone else went through the same thing :)

  • My parents were divorced when I was 4, my sister had a baby at 14. I live with my dad and my mum is down the road....and, I'm gay.

  • great way to look at it Brett. very insightful.

  • my parents are divorced. they got divorced when i was like 9 im 13 now it didnt really suck as i did miss my father. i barley talk to him or see him. i live with my mom its great but i would like to see my dad more often

  • I like these sharing vlogs. My parents never divorced they separated seven months later my dad passed away from a heart attack he was 61. My mom was unhappy in the marriage but I think if he had stayed alive they would have remained friends. They were never cruel to each other never had huge blow out fights my dad just never did anything really my mom raised my sister and me. He didn't die from the separation he had poor eating habits. I love him and miss him.

  • off topic. U should really stop recording urself while driving... haha we wouldn't want u to have an accident. we want u forever! ^____^

  • Hey Brett! Thanks for sharing! I hope my kids grow up to have the same outlook as you! You're awesome!

  • Very apt video Brett. My parents have been in an unhappy marriage for YEARS. Should get a divorced but choose not to because they think they can "work it out." After seven years I don't think so.

  • my parents had a fight today (even though they are divorced) so thanks for the advice, i'll keep it mind :)

  • My parents divorced when when I was nine and it was hard having step parents. It still is.

    Did you have to deal with step siblings? If you did, how did you deal?

  • My parents were married for about 23 years and then they separated for about 6 years because they fought ALL the time. During their separation I lived with my dad which was incredible, not because I don't love my mom but because she is very strict and my dad is VERY laid back so I got to live my teenage years in just about the greatest way possible! Then when I finished highschool we all moved back in together and it has been amazing so far! The separation was a definite must for them both!!

  • haha how ironic. My parents just moved to separate houses today. Brett its nice to know someone i look up to can give me advice indirectly. haha dont know if that makes sense but thanks :)

  • @haracross3 Forget indirectly, THIS IS DIRECT! Stay strong through this new change. It may be weird at first, but things will improve over time (really).

  • @BrettTheiPhone thanks. means a lot :)

  • @BrettTheiPhone I have some amazing advice when it comes to helping friends, family, or even people I don't know.. But this is one thing I never thought of. I always thought that divorce was because people were impulsive and it was a demonic (sorry if you're not religious) thing. I definitely change my outlook completely on divorcing now.

  • @haracross3 It's not ironic it's coincidental, but I feel for you anyway :).

  • i dont even know who my biological father is, he left when i was 2 and im now 21 and i still don't know who he is

  • @PartianHD Yay Ryan! Happy B-Day to BOTH of us :-)

  • @BrettTheiPhone i love you

  • You ARE awesome, Brett. My parents never divorced, but they should've - they are so unhappy together. But they've been married like... soon 30 years. I don't think they know how to live without each other. I'm making sure not to follow their foot steps though, when my boyfriend and I started to get these really serious fights I left him. The sad thing is that it means my son don't have any father at all.

  • @Twinkle91 It's good that you have taken a step back from your family, have seen what your parents are going through and have applied the lessons to your own life. Even though you leaving your boyfriend comes with it's downsides, you & your kids will be happier for it. You're a good mom :-)

  • Same thing with my bff, her parents are great friends and even go on holiday together which i think is great and i'm happy for her. Nowadays people get divorced without really trying to work on their marriages though :/

  • Even though my dad was previously married..and we ALL get along. both families.

    it's awesome.

  • My parents get along so well.. and I just thought it was that way for everyone.

    But I love your great attitude :)

  • My parents got divorced when I was 12 or 13, my little brother was 3 or 4 at the time so he didn't really understand at all and I was old enough to know it was for the better. However fastforward 5 years later (In about one month it will have been a year) my dad passed away so that's been a lot more of a hit than them simply getting divorced.

    I definitely liked the vlog as always B the I, then again haven't disliked one yet. Can't wait to see you at Vidcon!?

  • Good too see you have such a positive out look on life :)

  • Wow Brett my parents are divorced and I also think I'm awesome we have soooo much in common :) lol

  • Yeah, my parents got divorced when I was 16 and it wasn't that good.

  • this is for castle crashers

  • You SUCKER punched my brain, Britt!

  • yea..mine did too at that age!

  • OMG we have the same birthday =]

  • I'M SORRY TO HEAR THAT MAN! CHEER UP!
