Tell him no.
He screwed up, not you. He needs to live with it.
It is extremely common for abusive people to be smooth talkers, manipulators and good at placing the blame on other people or nubulous outisde influences (Like the housing market) They try and make others, especially their victims, think that their actions were somehow not their fault, it was something else that made them snap and was therefore out of their control. From your description you dad fits the mold perfectly. Don't try and get your mom or sister back into that kind of life. I would also suggest you get out now as well.
