I just wish my dad didnt tell me that I had to keep things together at home or my mom was going to leave us. I wish he had intervened when she went off and told me I didn't love her, didnt care about her, was a selfish brat etc etc. ad nauseum.

Yeah - alternatives were not pretty for me and I doubt they were for Scorpio either. Nonetheless, children deserve to be treated as children and not parentified or literally running for their lives from their caregivers! I wish I would have been treated as a person and intervention would have come in any form that allowed me to not take responsibility for grown-ups that I had no business trying to be responsible for in the first place.
