You must always respect your parents no matter how they behave and you must avoid any act or word which can hurt their feelings. Even if ur father is misbehaving with ur mother u are not to confront him as it can hurt his feelings and cause disrespect to him. You can support your mother emotionally with out disrespecting your father.

Wassalam.

the holy Qur'an says: "We have made the sacrifical animals among the symbols appointed by Allah for you. They are of immense good for you. So in the name of Allah stand in lines. When their flanks collapse eat from them and feed him who is contented and him who begs. In these way We have made this subservient to you so that you may render thanks" (22:36).

It is correct to say that the sacrifice of Eid al-Adha includes killing the ego and obey Allah. Since the order of sacrifice has been given by Allah in this regard, Muslims around the world travel thousands of miles to reach Mecca and perform the rites of Hajj, spending their money, time and energy. 

The meat should be divided between rich and poor and this is also a noble act.

With prayers for your success.
