Are what my parents saying true? I'm genuinely so conflicted

My dad cheated on my mom..I was 6 when I saw him talking to some woman on the phone and he told me the next day while I was playing that I shouldn't tell anyone what I saw

This went for years and years till I just burst I couldn't I just couldn't seeing him everyday just sitting there possibly cheating on my mom hurt me broke me, so I let it all out didn't hold back sobbing shouting yelling..

He made excuses like oh I was talking to her because she saw interest in Islam!! Then dropped that excuse quickly and then said another excuse where he was in those weird chat rooms because he was talking about politics!! Now 3 years later he doesn't even deny that he was just straight up talking to a woman.. he says it like it's normal he tells me it's none of my business and that why do I care? It's not like I will be the one judging him on the day of judgement Allah will, his usage of religion makes me so sad and hopeless..

Another thing they like to tell me is that my stubborns my عقوق will be the reason I'm miserable in life, it will be the reason I struggle in life and it feels so invalidating my experiences, I didn't just randomly start being rude to my dad it was built up resentment

I am so scared and I don't know what to do and I'm only 16 aswell.
