Ok if that ones not good enough you need reconcile your perspective of your mother between her two primary roles as an (abusive) organising force and a source of affection and empathy and in turn you need to be able to see yourself in your father despite your differences

The simplest way is communication, the subject is torn between different narratives, there is the prescribed cultural narrative of an ideal parental relationships he can't invest in, there is his own narrative of his history, there is the narrative he feels each of his parents impose on him on what really happened and then there is the actual narratives that each of the parents believe in. Understanding is established by seeing each other's narratives.
