1. DOUBLE CHRISTMAS'S
Two parents = twice as many presents. Can you say SCORE! Don't forget about birthdays too!
2. Bomb conflict resolution skills
It doesn't matter what the argument is about or who it's between, all you know is it doesn't need to be happening.
3. When you're parents start dating... again
Nothing gets you into your inner parent mode quite like telling a stranger to have your mom home by 9, no exceptions.
4. Using divorce as the perfect excuse.
Its revolutionary! The "Oh I must have left that piece of homework at my dads.." It's not your fault! You're the real victim here.
5. Sneaking out? Nah.
No need to risk a creaky floorboard, just tell mom you're at dad's and dad you're at mom's, works every time.
6. You no longer think of your parents as a single entity.
Unless you're talking pre-divorce, this is a very rare thought process.
7. You always pack way more then necessary.
You're only going to Dad's for three days ..but what if..?
8. Perfect excuse for your severe commitment issues.
It is what it is dude
9. Step-parents
When they come, and trust me they will, you have some sort of unspoken agreement that even if they tried to discipline you, it would be extremely redundant.
10. If you get annoyed with one parent, you can always go to the other's house.
