Mum and dad argument! +REP!

[Javascrypt]

They have had a argument because we think my mum has a alcohol addiction.
She keeps going wierd every now and then, her eyes go wide, she starts falling over and she keeps asking things over and over. She cant remember anything during and after this. My dad reckons she is taking alcohol and its the effect that she is drunk. She has been in hospital twice and to counsiling
and to the doctors. They say that it is a alcohol addiction and when she goes 'wierd' its the body wanting alcohol and having a effect. Anyways, my dad starts shouting at her. I try to help, so he starts shouting at me. He then slams doors and cupboards. He goes upstairs on his computer. She then goes outside for a walk so he runs down and goes "WHERE IS SHE GOING!"
I reply with, "i have no idea". I let them sort it out themselves, so about 5 minutes later he comes down and shouts "Pack your bags, i want you out"
I am shocked by this as it would have a effect on me and my 5 year old sister.
Okay so 30 minutes later when he comes back down from his computer, she asks him "Do you really want me out?" he says no. Then i go upstairs onto the xbox and i hear them talking. I go back down, everything seemed fine but they werent talking to each other. So, it comes to bedtime and my dad goes to bed and my mum sleeps downstairs.

What i need to know is, how could i choose what parent to live with if they split up?
- I met my dad at the age of 5, i lived with my mum and auntie.
And also, Does anybody know why my mum could be going 'wierd' and if you can find something about it on the internet so i know more about it and what it is.
Ohhh, and alsooo! How can i get them to talk?

Although arguments are not pleasant at the time, they are actually (in most cases) relationship strengthening. Sometimes arguing is easier than talking. If it comes to having to choose who you would like to live with then go for who you get along with most.

Nothing will be resolved until her drink problem is sorted. She needs to see a professional who will get to the root of her issue and hopefully resolve it. It's normal for parents to argue, my parents are divorced and they argued a lot before they split. You shouldn't be forced into making that decision.

Sadly they don't take alcoholism as serious as any other illnesses.

Just to get professional help will most probably take about a year.

Well if you live with your dad what's your mum gonna do? Turn to alcohol, plus you're probably at an age where you don't need a male figure anymore so it's best you stay with your mum and help her out etc I don't think they're splitting up though, your dad's only telling her for her own good because he cares but seems she doesn't wanna know about it. Good luck.

Get some money then give it to them to go to a nice restaraunt so they can have a nice time together.

I agree with what Jake said, while shes addicted to booze she isnt going to be herself which is probably very frustrating for your dad causing him to shout at her.

Sit them both down and tell them that their arguing is upsetting you and your sister, it may knock some sense into them.

If they split up, go live with the one you love most. But I would really go live with my dad if my mum was really unstable to watch me.
