It sounds like you have a really good relationship with your mother so if I were you, I’d be honest with her. I’d tell her “mom, I love you very much. I’m sorry that dad has hurt you but I cannot take sides, I’m not the right person to vent to about this.” Maybe by hearing it simply and plainly she’ll realize that she’s just adding to your problems by putting you in the middle. Five years is a long time to continue to beat the same dead horse.
