Which of the following is used most?
Is there any difference in meaning?

I never argue with my parents.

  • Nunca me peleo con mis padres
  • Nunca peleo con mis padres
  • Nunca discuto con mis padres
Hello.

The three sentences are correct. In Spain, pelearse is more common than pelear in these cases.

I'd use both 'discuto' and 'me peleo' in this context.

Saludos.
Many thanks, blasita!
As blasita has already said, the pronominal verb is way more used in Spain to convey that meaning.

Note that pelear is mostly used when talking about official boxing fights, for example. Boxers pelean, people se pelea both physically and verbally 👁 Smile :)
Many thanks, KirkandRafer!
