Was one the softie and the other was the rules man, or did they each play both roles?
How often did you hear, "Ask you father?" I would imagine that game could go on for a while...

Wow, you're all obsessed with this female role model thing, aren't you? Look, both my dads have mothers. D's grandma lives with his parents and lived close to us, so I spent a lot of time with my grandma and great-grandma. C's mom is very nurturing, though lived farther away. C has two sisters and I'm very close with one of my aunts, and his two best friends are female. Plus all my friends and their moms were around. There were women in my life, is what I'm trying to say.
No, there was not a standard good cop/bad cop thing going on. I knew who to go to for what. Want a new comforter? Go to D? Want to try this new food I heard about? Go to D. Want to get better at swimming? Go to C. Want to travel somewhere? Go to C.
Lol, it happened.
