Redditor Refuses To Babysit Halfsiblings For Free While His Dad Goes On Honeymoon With New Husband

Caring for someone else's kids for three weeks is like having a full-time job, not just a small favor. It's a bit surprising that a 43-year-old dad would expect his 22-year-old son to babysit his twin sons without pay.

OP's parents split up when the dad had an affair that led to his mistress getting pregnant. OP's dad has been a single parent with twin boys, as their mother acts more like a distant relative than an actual parent. OP's parents handled their divorce pretty well and rebuilt their friendship over the years. Their blended modern family got a bit bigger recently when OP's dad married his boyfriend, Dan. And now, the newlywed couple is getting ready for their three-week honeymoon. At first, Dan wanted to take the twins along on the trip, but OP's dad preferred to have a honeymoon just for themselves. OP said he would only babysit the kids if he was paid. Scroll down to read the whole story.

OP asks:

The background

OP has never considered the twins to be his halfsiblings but his siblings.

OP's dad got married again.

He didn't want to take the boys with them.

Just a hand he needs.

AITA?
