[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Because it leaves one parent to do bedtime duty. If they have small kids, that's a job that requires all hands on deck[/quote]

One person can do it[/quote]
Single and military parents do it all the time.[/quote]

And parents of multiples do it all the time.  For us, when the kids were infants, we slept in shifts so that we could each get a realistic amount of sleep.  We both had some travel that the family did not go on when the kids were toddlers and preschoolers.  Agreed that it is much easier with two parents, but after a few months, both parents should be able to take care of the kids without the other.[/quote]

Parent of multiples here and while yes, I can take care of my children on my own, it's a lot easier with another pair of hands. So while my spouse and I don't mind if the other goes to an occasional happy hour, we don't usually spring that on one another at the last minute, and we do try to trade off getting nights out.

Pre-kids, though, a last-minute happy hour was fine. [/quote]

OP made no mention of this being a habit . She also hasn't mentioned children.
