I might need help

Hey, Doc. I may have a problem. I have a problem, where I have a father who has all the trading problems I have learned to disagree with. He is 50 years old and I am 21, why is it that, I often talk down on his trades. I, tell him him he should take profits and should do this and that. He often gets angry and discouraged with my comments. My, mother will often come to me and tell me to stay out of it. What should I do here, I feel like he has become the herd and just reacts like most others, so I tell him no don't do this. However, with life in general, it seems most people are the herd and theres no hope. Is there anything I can do to just slow this thought process down or just forget about it?
One thing is, my dad doesn't make a living off trading, it's just hard to see someone, that got you into the idea fail so hard. Any info will help, Also being drunk this week, I seem to get very one sided and caused a problem. I know alcohol seems to blame, but my father has been trading the same way for 20 years. I dunno, merry Christmas and a happy new years to all, but this stuff just throws me off. If anyone can help me out I'd appreciated it.
