Unreasonable Expectations?

Your views on........Is my boss an unreasonable arse?

For those that dont know, I am business manager for a car dealership.

The owner, mainly sells vehicles and finance....I handle the rest, as well as selling finance. We have 12 staff, which includes my secretary and a delivery manager/stock controller, whose jobs overlaps mine in a few areas.

Today I am home with the 2 boys (ages 4 & 2), as the 4yr old has the flu with a temp and nasty cough.

I've had, 6ish phone calls from work - I accept those, they are genuine and warranted.

My boss makes my secretary call me and TELL me that she has to come babysit the sick kids so I can go into work for a few hours... wtf???

I have spoken to both people about the things that need to be done today, they are the two that handle things when I go away for whatever length of time.

I said No, and am now getting a lot of grief for not going into work and I am starting to feel guilty (which is my boss' uncanny knack).
