Judaism DIR
Shalom,
I'm asking about this in relation to things like slander etc. in halacha.
So as many people know, my dad has a drinking problem. He and I live with his parents and they argue and argue constantly. Dad then wants to moan and whine to me about what they said to him, but these people are my grandparents and I love them dearly; I don't want to say bad words about them, but if I stay silent or suggest reasonable diplomacy he becomes angry at me too. Sometimes these arguments threaten to erupt into physical violence, especially between my dad and his dad.
How am I supposed to respond when I'm piggy-in-the-middle? Any ideas?
Thanks.
