My(20f) parents have been split up since I was 8. My dad met this girl 6 years ago, they had two kids, my half siblings, ages 5, and 3. My dads gf earlier this week, went into labor early and unexpectedly. My dad called me asking if I could come stay with the kids. I told him I couldn’t, this was my first week back on campus and I was still getting adjusted. He got angry and said that wasn’t an excuse not to watch my siblings and needed me back. It is a 2 hour drive back, I wasn’t willing to make on a school night. I told him I just simply couldn’t, and I needed to focus on my studies.

A few hours later he texted me angry saying thanks a lot for not helping out because he had to keep two children in the hospital waiting room til my aunt answered the phone, and that he couldn’t be there for his girlfriend during this time. He told me I was selfish and should be ashamed of myself. AITA?
