Reader question:

Mom and grandmother argue, then relations improve, but they do not reconcile. What should I do?

Dima

Priest's answer:

Priest Evgeniy CHEBYKIN

Hello, Dimitri.

It is very unfortunate that your family has such an unfavorable situation. I sincerely hope that sooner or later your mother and grandmother will learn to communicate with each other peacefully!

For this to happen, you should, firstly, give them fewer reasons for quarrels, which means studying well, helping around the house, and so on; secondly, pray to God for their and your admonition.

Please try, Dimitri, to go to church for divine services more often, confess, partake of the Holy Mysteries of Christ, read wise books and do good deeds.

May the Lord help you!
