I am sorry, I think the person with the traumatic experience is you, having him for a father.
He sounds like (from what you have said here, absolutely no boundaries with you) he has a very serious personality disorder. Narcissism maybe?
He can be toxic to you though, is there any way you can avoid him? stop answering his calls, stop listening to the next selfish insane idea to get your mother back? I think you deserve some peace.

I originally came here because my bf was binge drinking and it was getting out of hand. He doesn't drink anymore and is in recovery. He has a very good 'BS detector' and doesn't have the personality to be manipulative and controlling. My dad, on the other hand... Let's just say, I came here because of my bf, but stayed because of my dad.
