Please don't take this offensively but you said you are a working MAN. So be a man and stay out of your parents quarrels. That is between them. Hopefully they raised you (which from the sounds of it they did) to be a strong independent adult and there comes a time when you have to let them go so you CAN be the man you are ment to be. You can't take care of them forever. If your mom is really struggling and needs to get a break from your dad for a few days then have her come stay with you for a vacation. But either way you shouldn't get in the middle.
