This is going to be a little long, but the back story is essential for my reasoning.  TL;DR at bottom. 

I'm 23. My sister is 16. We have the same dad and different moms. We both had custody agreements growing up that put us both at my dad's on wednesdays and weekends. Being 7 years apart, we weren't the closest. We also had normal sibling problems and fights. Not getting too far into it, she was definitely my dad's favorite. 

Until I was around 12 or 13 my dad was a heavy alcoholic. Very typical alcoholic at that. He used to punch me, treated me like shit, all the bad stuff. I absolutely hated him growing up. But he finally got sober (I'm more than grateful for it.) Which puts my sister at 5 or 6 years old. So she actually got the better version of dad than I did for the majority of her memory. I don't ever remember him ever laying a finger on her, especially the compared to the stuff I got. 

Fast forward to a couple years ago. I think it started when she turned 13. She started distancing herself from my dad and his family (which is less than 15 people. Small family.) My dad would maybe see her once a month. Then once every 3 months or so. My dad is still kind of a dick, but he has a full heart. He's texted my sister every morning for the past 3 years and never gets a response. She's 90% given up on that side of the family. She says its because of my dads wife, but they've been together for almost 7 years I think, and she loved his wife when they first got together. So none of us really know the reason.  

Fast forward again to last summer. My dad hadn't seen my sister in a full year. He gave in and invited her on the yearly family vacation. She went and on the last day, she punched our step brother, (9yrs old) called our step mom a cunt, and raised her hand to swing at our dad. She told my dad, indirectly, that she expects an apology before she'll talk to him. Which to me is fucking outrageous. 

My Baby's due date was right before Christmas.  Before Thanksgiving my sister, at this point still hasn't seen my dad or family, messaged my GF. She asked, "even though I don't want to see my dad and his family, can I still see the baby?" I told my GF to tell her, "no, that isn't fair to your dad." She never responded, and now in January, we have a beautiful baby girl and no one has heard from my sister.  My dad and I have great relationship and he absolutely loves his granddaughter. 

TL;DR. My sister gave up on our family and I haven't let her meet my baby. 

So back to the point, AITA for not letting my sister meet my baby?
