based upon your post you are addressing two different issues. relative to how she deals with you, tell her how you feel respectfully. you are an adult and it is acceptable to feel that you need to share with her how she does not take responsibility for her actions and its affect on you. if this is an ongoing issue then you may need to come to a point of acceptance and then move on, dealing with her in light of this short coming.
when it comes to how your mother relates to your father, its none of your business. you are not married to your mother and it is your dad's responsibility to reign her in on this issue.
my mother has been with a man who is disliked by the entire family and has done nothing but caused strife. personally, i wish he would go away. however, he is with my mother so, if she is happy then i am happy. the only time i say anything regarding him, is when she attempts to treat him as if he were a parent to me or a relative of my children. that is where i draw the line and reign her in.

My mother thinks she is always right. She apologies rarely to me or my brother even when she is wrong. I sometimes wonder if she understands how I feel when she just lets stuff go and never says anything.
My mother won't go anywhere without my father. It drives me crazy. I can offer her a trip to lala land and the first question will be is your father going - lol.
I love my mother and we have a wonderful relationship but sometimes I just don't get her.
