Answer #1

you need to listen to whoever you asked first. If you son’t, then your parents might fight about how one parent is trying to be the only parent. Trust me, been there done that!!!

Answer #2

I’m surprised your parents haven’t figured this out yet.

When I was a kid, I’d ask mom who always told me to go ask dad. When I went to ask dad, he’d tell me to go ask mom. When we told him she told us to ask him, that was his cue that whatever he decided, she would agree with.

My hubby and I use the same strategy, and the kids only ever get one answer.

Answer #3

hmm im sure it sounds tempting because your dad is giving you the right and the ‘go ahead’ part.. I totally get what you mean.. im ALWAYS in the same situation/complication.. just do what you think would be right.. and if not tell your mom that your dad said yes and well he has the last word..so you can go.. (although my mom always puts up a fight..lol so that dosnt really work out well..but it might for u :)! )

Answer #4

Stop asking both of them. If one has said no then dont ask the other!

Answer #5

I wood listen to the one that I agreed with…
